Sun Microsystems - 70.62MB (Open Source) - BETA


VirtualBox is a general-purpose full virtualizer for x86 hardware. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software.

Some of the features of VirtualBox are:

*Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox.
*Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

PuTTY 0.60 Beta

Simon Tatham - 1.68MB (Open Source) - BETA


PuTTY is a client program for the SSH, Telnet and Rlogin network protocols.

These protocols are all used to run a remote session on a computer, over a network. PuTTY implements the client end of that session: the end at which the session is displayed, rather than the end at which it runs.

In really simple terms: you run PuTTY on a Windows machine, and tell it to connect to (for example) a Unix machine. PuTTY opens a window. Then, anything you type into that window is sent straight to the Unix machine, and everything the Unix machine sends back is displayed in the window. So you can work on the Unix machine as if you were sitting at its console, while actually sitting somewhere else.

This download includes the following tools:
*PuTTY (the Telnet and SSH client itself)
*PSCP (an SCP client, i.e. command-line secure file copy)
*PSFTP (an SFTP client, i.e. general file transfer sessions much like FTP)
*PuTTYtel (a Telnet-only client)
*Plink (a command-line interface to the PuTTY back ends)
*Pageant (an SSH authentication agent for PuTTY, PSCP and Plink)
*PuTTYgen (an RSA and DSA key generation utility).
