(COLUMBIA, MD) - Science Applications International Corporation's (SAIC) Advanced Technology and Solutions Group (AT&SG) today announced Secure Remote Log Monitor (SRLM) release 1.0. The open-source project is available free to the end user at http://srlm.sourceforge.net under the GNU General Public License (GPL). The SRLM project is a set of utility programs to selectively and securely retrieve log files from multiple clients to a central log server. The application runs on Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris. A Java user interface is also included, which may run on any Java supported platform, including Windows. This release culminates a one-year effort funded by SAIC as an Internal Research and Development (IR&D) project. The project developers appreciate the support of management at AT&SG for obtaining this funding, providing personnel to staff the project, development computers, lab space, and networking support. As a research project the developers began with a concept and explored many tools and technologies to realize their objective. Initial prototypes were developed on Linux using Python, a rapid application development language. These prototypes implemented the modular, network based design of system components. This prototype phase was followed by implementation of each component on Linux in C++. With the architecture in place the project then ported the client application to FreeBSD and Solaris. Communication between system components is implemented using ACE, a project SAIC has participated in sponsoring. The Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) is a freely available, open-source object-oriented (OO) framework that implements many core patterns for concurrent communication software. ACE provides a rich set of reusable C++ wrapper facades and framework components that perform common communication software tasks across a range of OS platforms. The communication software tasks provided by ACE include event demultiplexing and event handler dispatching, signal handling, service initialization, interprocess communication, shared memory management, message routing, dynamic (re)configuration of distributed services, concurrent execution and synchronization. Secure communications between system components is implemented using SSL from the OpenSSL project. The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength general purpose cryptography library. Software was developed using the GCC compilers, the automake/autoconf tools, memprof and valgrind for memory leak detection, RATS for code analysis, Doxygen for code documentation, Xerces for XML parsing and other tools provided with the RedHat distribution of Linux.
