h1. Censor.py

Most services that ask for a username and a password will record the login in log files. This way, when a user type his password in the login field, it gets recorded in cleartext in the logfile, creating a big security threat to the system.

This script finds cleartext password (by trying them against the /etc/shadow file) in logfiles and erase them.

<pre>

Usage: censor [-hdsrbwn] <file>

Options:

  -h		Show this help

  -d		Display found passwords

  -s		Perform silently (overrides -d)

  -r		Replace found passwords in the file by junk

  -b		Search password byte by byte (really slow)

  -w		Search password word by word (slow)

  -n		Search password word by word considering passwords don't contain spaces(usable/default)

</pre>

It is advised to use it from logfiles rotations scripts.

h1. Cp.py

Enhanced cp command:

 * Displays a progress bar.

 * Allow speed limitation (through the -k flag).
