Open Source FreeBSD File Systems

AVFS is a system, which enables all programs to look inside gzip, tar, zip, etc. files or view remote (ftp, http, dav, etc.) files, without recompiling the programs.

FATSort is a small utilitiy for Linux that sorts directory structures of FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 and exFAT file systems. It is written in C and can be run from the command line.

CurlFtpFS is a filesystem for acessing ftp hosts based on FUSE and libcurl. Automatically reconnects if the server times out.

The Sleuth Kit is a C++ library and collection of open source file system forensics tools that allow you to, among other things, view allocated and deleted data from NTFS, FAT, FFS, EXT2, Ext3, HFS+, and ISO9660 images.

WipeFreeSpace is a program to securely erase/wipe/overwrite/shred the free space on file systems WITHOUT DESTROYING EXISTING FILES, to prevent recovery of deleted sensitive data. This allows protecting the user's privacy when e.g. selling the drive or the whole computer. The following filesystems are supported: - Ext2/3/4, - NTFS, - XFS, - ReiserFSv3/4, - FAT12/16/32, - MinixFS1/2, - JFS, - HFS/HFS+, - OCFS. The following wiping methods are supported: Gutmann-like, random, Schneier, DoD. Additionally, WipeFreeSpace can finalize wiping the filesystem by writing blocks of zeros, which is friendly for sparse files, virtual systems and other places where zeroed-out space is not physically allocated. See the project homepage https://wipefreespace.sourceforge.io and the project Wiki in the menu above. To prevent clear-text data from being left on the drive in the first place, you can use LibSecRm (https://libsecrm.sourceforge.io), which wipes the data on-the-fly.

SMBNetFS is a Linux/FreeBSD filesystem that allow you to use samba/microsoft network in the same manner as the network neighborhood in Microsoft Windows. Please donate me to help in SMBNetFS development.

UNFS3 is a user-space implementation of the NFSv3 server specification. It provides a unified mountd and nfsd program and so far runs under Linux, NetBSD, and Solaris.

Please note that OWFS source code, and all Issue/Tickets/merge requests have now been moved to https://github.com/owfs/owfs/. Developer mailing lists will still be kept at Sourceforge. ---- OWFS -- 1-Wire file system. Use the Dallas 1-Wire and iButton chips with standard filesystem commands. Create temperature loggers. Monitor everything. OWHTTPD -- same system, only used as a light weight web server. OWFS is also ported to embedded routers, Mac OSX and Windows. Basically you can use these inexpensive little sensors and other chips with very simple wiring to sense and control the physical environment. The interface is very flexible -- everything from a web browser, to read and writing directly to the chip's "file" to integrating with your programs -- even over the internet. There is a growing number of 1-wire sensors: temperature, voltage, humidity, light, ultraviolet, pressure, thermisters, thermocouples, programmable microcontrollers, relays, lights, LCD panels, etc

FFS File System Driver for Windows 2000/XP/2003, allows you to get a read access to FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD FFS(UFS) partitions.

Tool for copy partitions to another HDD. FreeBSD stores its data on partitions, which incapsulated in slices. Soft, such as Partition Magic, Acronis, etc. detect only slice, not real partitions on that slice. CloneHDD correctly understand size diference.

Webbsyte OS is a UNIX derivitive. We will show the learning or expert developer how to use assembly and C/C++ to create a bootable OS.

Mount.app is a Window Maker compatible dock app which makes it convenient to manage all of your mountable devices.

Python FAM provides a Python module to use the File Alteration Monitor (http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam) in Python.

Porting ext2fs from NetBSD to FreeBSD, a rather simple but practical filesystem based on UFS1 sources.

Basic Backup is a simple customizable shell script providing system admins an easy way to get basic system files backed up. Use from the moment you startup a new system and archive daily changes through bbackup. Allows you to specify which directories o

This is cryptographic disk driver for FreeBSD. It provides transparent encryption and decryption of selected devices. It is based on vn(4).

The DAFS protocol is a new file-access protocol designed to take advantage of emerging RDMA (remote direct memory access) interconnect technologies such as InfiniBand, VI and iWARP. See http://www.dafscollaborative.org/ for detailed DAFS information.

The Encrypted File system will allow the users to encrypt and decrypt their files in FreeBSD with the enhanced features encryption process happening when the load on the CPU is low and the file attributes will also be encrypted.

The Extensible Versioning File System, designed for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, introduces native versioning file system functionality to your operating system.

File undelete / recovery tool for *BSD FFS filesystem

This project is the Fast File System. This is a mountable file system that will use a fragment of your RAM and/or Swap as a mountable device. All the files has a great performance for read/write, but all what is written will be lost at umount or reboot

The FUSE project has moved to https://github.com/libfuse/

FreeBSD Control Center is a tool that provides a graphical environment for configuration, tuning and making services available in an few clicks of the mouse.

A utility to graphically present distribution of I/O requests to a storage device on FreeBSD systems.

This project is for the porting effort of Red Hat Global File System (GFS), a cluster file system, to FreeBSD.
