-5th virusscanner: Vexira. Run virusscan -a va to get the newly added Vexira AV downloaded and run on your computer
-mclone: a self written utility to mass clone machines over the network using multicast. See the docpage
here.
-updatetrk -z / zimrun: Novell Zenworks Imaging (only TRK 3.3 build 310, broken in newer builds),
As stated above, this functionality is broken because of kernel/application incompatibilities. As of TRK 3.3 build 321, please use mclone (which is much faster and has better features too).
-updatetrk -t: Seagate/Maxtor Seatools harddrive testing. This is a tool completely outside of TRK that runs under FreeDos. I 've added this to updatetrk. Add the "-t" flag to get it downloaded from the Seagate website and have it integrated. When booting an updated TRK, you will see an extra option from the initial TRK bootsplash menu.
-updatetrk -s all: update only from local contents (since 3.3 build 333): ever since build 333 there is complete read/write support in TRK, which allows you to install plain RPMs and save them afterwards to an updated TRK, be it as an ISO or an update to your USB stick. Please beware that after you have run updatetrk against your USB stick, you need to IMMEDIATELY REBOOT because the underlying filesystem running from trkramfs will have been overwritten and therefore inconsistent, resulting in strange behavior and error messages all over the place.
-rkhunter and chkrootkit: rootkit detection utilities, only for unix/linux machines unfortunately
-manpages for all common commands now included
-fileserver -r: filesharing can be run as read-only (option -r)
-tryscsi: try to detect your scsi controller, also available as startup option
-dd_rescue: alternative to ddrescue
-ide/sata raid support: mountallfs -l scans for software raid configurations, puts them together and mounts them
-trkbootnet: boot TRK over the network from another TRK: use the script trkbootnet to boot a TRK from CD or USB stick and then boot other machines over PXE without any change to your network environment (no dhcp modifications, no resident tftp nor nfs server)
How does it work?
Well, the initial bootprinciple is similar to Microsoft RIS or Novell Zenworks network boot.
Thanks to a long existing patch from Michael Johnston for the ISC dhcp server, this dhcp is able to act as a proxy dhcp server. In short it means that when a PXE client receives boot parameters from a dhcp server like an ip-address but no PXE information, it broadcasts for the presence of a proxy dhcp server that could provide it with additional information like the location of a PXE server.
The built-in PXE server from this ISC dhcp then responds with parameters about a TFTP server and a bootfilename.
Next, the client gets its bootfile from the TFTP server, which is also running on TRK and boots the TRK kernel.
The "TRK server" is also acting as an nfs server so TRK can also run the second bootstage.
-TRK 3.3 is now volume label independent: you can put any volume label you like on your CD/USB stick. You just have to pass the volume label in your syslinux.cfg/isolinux.cfg by adding vollabel=YOURLABEL to the command line. Interesting for people making multiboot CDs.
-winpass rewritten (+ backup option): winpass is for 80% rewritten. It is now completely case independent, with much better code, so it should give no problems anymore on windows installations not being found. It also now makes a backup of the original hive and has a restore mode (winpass --restore). So you can reset a password, get in the pc and put back the original password.
-trinisup: This script allows to give remote support on a running TRK. It makes a connection to an intermediate server and opens up a reverse ssh port. Use any port between 6000 and 6500 as a remote port to connect to. This port will get mapped to the ssh server running on TRK. It uses the same principle as the Trinity Remote Support Pack (read all about that on the trinityhome.org new pages if you want to know more about it). This is to be used in cooperation with the Trinity support team (the people from Opencomputing). You can get an account to use it for a small fee or use the 2 minutes limited demo account (password "gogogo")
-disable autorun from windows: If you put in the TRK cd from Windows, you
will get a warning that TRK is not meant to run from Windows. Furthermore, it tells you that autorun is a bad thing (autorun viruses and such) and asks you if it can disable autorun altogether.
-screen (build 333): this utility allows you to open a console remotely over ssh and leave it running after you close your ssh session. All the local consoles also run under screen, so you can share a console with the user behind the local desktop. To take over a local console on /dev/tty1 (first console) via ssh, type 'screen -x tty1'
-scrip (build 333)t: a utility to record local command input and record it into a script file.
