[ddp] fwknop-server : FireWall KNock OPerator server side

[daily-debian-package at enix.org]

Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package fwknop-server, which
is part of the admin section, and maintained by Franck Joncourt
<franck.mail at dthconnex.com>. 

This package contains : FireWall KNock OPerator server side.

The FireWall KNock OPerator implements an authorization scheme called
Single Packet Authorization (SPA), based on Netfilter and libpcap.

Its main application is to protect services such as OpenSSH with
an additional layer of security in order to make the exploitation of
vulnerabilities (both 0-day and unpatched code) much more difficult.

The authorization server passively listens for authorization packets via
libcap, thus preventing any connections from being processed on the
traditional port. Access to a protected service is only granted after a
valid encrypted and non-replayed packet is detected.
