  Description     : Firewall Knock Operator - advanced port knock daemon

(Include the long description here.)

fwknop stands for "Firewall Knock Operator" and is a piece of software
that I released at the DEFCON 12 conference in July, 2004 in Las
Vegas: presentation slides

fwknop implements network access controls (via iptables) based on a
flexible port knocking mini-language, but with a twist; it combines
port knocking and passive operating system fingerprinting to make it
possible to do things like only allow, say, Linux-2.4/2.6 systems to
connect to your SSH daemon.

fwknop supports shared, multi-protocol port knock sequences along with
both relative and absolute timeouts, and coded port knock sequences
encrypted with the Rijndael block cipher.

Hello,

This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or 
are involved with.

Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.

As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not 
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been 
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).

To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:

reopen 305081
thanks bts

Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
305081@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.

A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.

Thanks for your cooperation,

 -- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
