Open Source C Networking Software for Linux

Dreamos is an operating system developed on Sega Dreamcast to be ported to an array of embedded devices. The goal of the project is to be able to run non-ported Unix programs on the Sega Dreamcast and other embedded devices with ease and POSIX compliance

Extendable game server for a Linux Deathmatch. Basically, a Linux Deathmatch is a realtime hacking competition where several teams share a network and try to set up services, for which they get scores, and hack the other players.

KalliX is a multifunctional tool for gamers & people who'd like to manage their games, interact between games or in the games themself with other gamers. This project is (of course) OpenSource and based on the GPL license.

The OverServer is a "server for servers" - its purpose is to allow for coordination of player-hosted servers in one central location so that other players can easily locate games. The OverServer is an open-source tool for game developers who are working on network games and do not require a massively scalable backend for their network services but want a metaserver for their own games. One particular strength of the player-hosted games setup is that it places the burden of Internet traffic on the player base and not a central server. OverServer tries not to violate this strength by keeping the query and response length very low to cut down on overhead from running the metaserver. I designed OverServer with a few lessons in mind from Valve and Won's metaserver setup for Half-life. It is at least somewhat resistant to attack through a challenge-response system for incoming requests. I also wanted the tool to be very simple to "snap in" to an existing application.

PANG - Protocol for Arcade Network Gaming Provides multiplayer arcade games with frame synchronization and packet reliability. The PANG protocol is UDP-based, written in the C language, and developed for Linux, Unix, and Solaris systems.

Rcon Controller: a SA:MP server administration tool. aims to provide real-time graphic/console monitoring / Instant managing. developed by CoolGuy.

ServerArk is a application for Linux gaming servers that samples and analyzes incoming UDP packets at the kernel level in real time to determine if any packets are part of a UDP flood attack. Flood attacks on gaming servers are typically designed to make the players on the server lag to the point where the game is not playable. It can even crash some game servers. ServerArk automatically detects when a UDP flood attack occurs and uses kernel-level iptables rules to dynamically block those packets from being processed by the game server at all. It essentially lifts the game server "above the flood" and allows the game to still be playable, even under very heavy attacks. It can be run interactively with a high level of verbosity (to watch its logic in action), or it can be run unobtrusively as a daemon with output to daily log files (typical usage).

XLattice is a communications infrastructure for server-assisted peer-to-peer networks. Initial implementation is Java (and so platform-independent) with C/C++ for Linux and then Windows to follow.

Daemon to tunnel IPX traffic from one local-area-network to another over Internet Protocol wide-area-networks, such as the internet.

2D tilebased/networked game development libraries. Include functionality for different configuration files (INI-style, XML) and IFF (ancient format design from Electronic Arts). All is based on the Simple Directmedia Layer and related libraries.

Ztats is a overall info tool for an Halflife server. (it may expand to other server types in the future). it's intended for wesite admins/game admins who want to include all sorts of server info in their site. main features : - live server monitor
