Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

Nmap/Zenmap

Submitted by hm2k on September 11, 2008 - 8:08am

Nmap is a very useful network tool. It is an open source security/port scanner, released under GPL.

The project is very active (last release was 4 days ago at time of writing).

Zenmap is the GUI interface to Nmap.

The only major issue is that much like wireshark, Nmap requires the winpcap driver.

I see quite a few threads requesting Nmap/Zenmap (https://portableapps.com/search/node/nmap), yet we've still not got an official release.

I'd like to see one...

KRDC

KRDC is an KDE graphical client for the RFB Protocol used by VNC.
If rdesktop is installed, krdc can also connect to Windows Terminal Servers using RDP.

I know some people have already suggested getting some QT and KDE applications working as portable apps. One of the tools missing from my portable apps tool chest is a remote desktop application.

XBMC media center

Submitted by mdiviesti on September 8, 2008 - 12:08am

I have been using XBMC media center for a while on my computer which is hooked up to my entertainment system, I currently have all of my media on an external hard drive though. It would be coold to install XBMC so that I could set everything up on this external drive.

For your convenience, the link to the media center is http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc/

Thanks
Mike
