Script for publishing BibTeX bibliographies as NanoBlogger articles
I have written a script in Bourne Shell (bibtex2article.sh), available under the GNU GPL license, to publish sets of bibliographic entries as NanoBlogger articles from .bib BibTeX files.
It generates only XHTML1.1-compliant UTF-8-encoded bibliography articles.
This script is based on bibtex2html, iconv and sed.
I use it for my own bibliography, cf.: the summary, the detailed view with abstracts, and the pretty-printed Bibtex file.

I have updated my article on Kerberized remote start of Erlang/OTP slave nodes.
This updated version refers to the latest version of the remctl package (version 1.9).

New version of remctl (1.9) available
remctl is a kind of replacement for rsh, with Kerberos authentication.
It additionnally adds a way to restrict which commands can be run by every user, very much like a “configurable remote restricted shell”, or sudo.
It has been packaged for Debian GNU/Linux.
The previously released version 1.8 provided the possibility to include files in the configuration file.
However, it had a bug that crashed the remctld demon when an included directory contained more than one file to include.
A new version 1.9 has been released on 2005-05-11 to correct that bug.
