I am happy to announce, the world of managing POSIX users/groups stored in LDAP has gotten even easier.

Plugtools supports adding, modifying, and removing both POSIX users and groups. Best of all, it also supports a plugin system.

The most useful plugin I've written for it so far is Plugtools::Plugins::Samba, which allows Samba users to be created in LDAP as well as turning existing users in LDAP into Samba accounts as well.

Wooho! 24 now.

This is a little perl module for opening a file based on it's mimetype and specified action. Unlike most other things like this, this allows one to multiple actions to be defined per mimetype. Thus one can have have one for viewing, another for editing, and etc.

This a file can be ran using two methodes. The first is using an available desktop entry and the second is specified command.

With in the last year, I published 22 modules on CPAN or about one every two weeks

With in a few days, it will be 23 once I finish a bit more documentation on a new one I am working on.
