Sentinel Security Toolkit Development
( This will soon have its own web page. )

Sentinel is a fast file/drive scanning utility similar to the Tripwire and Viper.pl utilities available. It uses a database similar to Tripwire, but uses a RIPEMD-160bit MAC checksumming algorithm (no patents) which is more secure than the patented MD5 128 bit checksum. It should run on most unixes (tested on redhat linux v6.0 & v5.2, slackware linux v3.x & 4.xb and IRIX (v5.2 and v6.x). Several other utilities which are used for Sentinel development are also posted here. Most utilities are included with the sentinel tarball.

gSentinel is a graphical front-end to sentinel. Newbies should download gSentinel as it comes with a very simple rpm based installation and offers a friendly interface. Beware that gSentinel is currently under development and may be fairly crude compared to most GUI packages. To compile and install : rpm --recompile filename.src.rpm...Note that this is *not* distributed as a tar.gz file since updates to gSentinel will be at a faster pace than the regular sentinel tarball.
