Chapter 2 Wireless Security Checklist4Chapter 2: Wireless Security ChecklistWireless networks are convenient and easy to install, sohomes with high-speed Internet access are adopting themat a rapid pace. Because wireless networking operates bysending information over radio waves, it can be morevulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network.Like signals from your cellular or cordless phones, signalsfrom your wireless network can also be intercepted. Sinceyou cannot physically prevent someone from connectingto your wireless network, you need to take some additionalsteps to keep your network secure.1. Change the default wireless network name or SSIDWireless devices have a default wireless network nameor Service Set Identifier (SSID) set by the factory. Thisis the name of your wireless network, and can be upto 32 characters in length. Linksys wireless productsuselinksys as the default wireless network name. Youshould change the wireless network name to somethingunique to distinguish your wireless network from otherwireless networks that may exist around you, but do notuse personal information (such as your Social Securitynumber) because this information may be available foranyone to see when browsing for wireless networks.2. Change the default passwordFor wireless products such as access points, routers, andgateways, you will be asked for a password when youwant to change their settings. These devices have a defaultpassword set by the factory. The Linksys default passwordisadmin. Hackers know these defaults and may try touse them to access your wireless device and change yournetwork settings. To thwart any unauthorized changes,customize the device’s password so it will be hard toguess.3. Enable MAC address filteringLinksys routers and gateways give you the ability toenable Media Access Control (MAC) address filtering. TheMAC address is a unique series of numbers and lettersassigned to every networking device. With MAC addressfiltering enabled, wireless network access is providedsolely for wireless devices with specific MAC addresses.For example, you can specify the MAC address of eachcomputer in your home so that only those computers canaccess your wireless network. 4. Enable encryptionEncryption protects data transmitted over a wirelessnetwork. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) and WiredEquivalency Privacy (WEP) offer different levels of securityfor wireless communication.A network encrypted with WPA/WPA2 is more securethan a network encrypted with WEP, because WPA/WPA2uses dynamic key encryption. To protect the informationas it passes over the airwaves, you should enable thehighest level of encryption supported by your network equipment. WEP is an older encryption standard and may be theonly option available on some older devices that do notsupport WPA.General Network Security GuidelinesWireless network security is useless if the underlyingnetwork is not secure.Password protect all computers on the network andsindividually password protect sensitive files.Change passwords on a regular basis.sInstall anti-virus software and personal firewallssoftware.Disable file sharing (peer-to-peer). Some applicationssmay open file sharing without your consent and/orknowledge.Additional Security TipsKeep wireless routers, access points, or gateways awaysfrom exterior walls and windows.Turn wireless routers, access points, or gatewayssoff when they are not being used (at night, duringvacations).Use strong passphrases that are at least eight characterssin length. Combine letters and numbers to avoid usingstandard words that can be found in the dictionary.WEB: For more information on wirelesssecurity, visit www.linksys.com/security

By contrast, the
33Appendix F Software License AgreementGNU General Public License is intended to guarantee yourfreedom to share and change free software–to make surethe software is free for all its users. This General PublicLicense applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’ssoftware and to any other program whose authorscommit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundationsoftware is covered by the GNU Lesser General PublicLicense instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.When we speak of free software, we are referring tofreedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses aredesigned to make sure that you have the freedom todistribute copies of free software (and charge for thisservice if you wish), that you receive source code or canget it if you want it, that you can change the software oruse pieces of it in new free programs; and that you knowyou can do these things.To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions thatforbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you tosurrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certainresponsibilities for you if you distribute copies of thesoftware, or if you modify it.For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipientsall the rights that you have. You must make sure that they,too, receive or can get the source code. And you mustshow them these terms so they know their rights.We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright thesoftware, and (2) offer you this license which gives youlegal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify thesoftware. Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want tomake certain that everyone understands that there is nowarranty for this free software. If the software is modifiedby someone else and passed on, we want its recipientsto know that what they have is not the original, so thatany problems introduced by others will not reflect on theoriginal authors’ reputations.Finally, any free program is threatened constantly bysoftware patents. We wish to avoid the danger thatredistributors of a free program will individually obtainpatent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent mustbe licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.The precise terms and conditions for copying, distributionand modification follow.TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATIONThis License applies to any program or other work 0.which contains a notice placed by the copyrightholder saying it may be distributed under the termsof this General Public License. The “Program”, below,refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means either the Programor any derivative work under copyright law: that isto say, a work containing the Program or a portionof it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter,translation is included without limitation in the term“modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.Activities other than copying, distribution andmodification are not covered by this License; theyare outside its scope. The act of running the Programis not restricted, and the output from the Program iscovered only if its contents constitute a work based onthe Program (independent of having been made byrunning the Program). Whether that is true dependson what the Program does.You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the1.Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium,provided that you conspicuously and appropriatelypublish on each copy an appropriate copyrightnotice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all thenotices that refer to this License and to the absenceof any warranty; and give any other recipients of theProgram a copy of this License along with the Program.You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferringa copy, and you may at your option offer warrantyprotection in exchange for a fee.You may modify your copy or copies of the Program2.or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on theProgram, and copy and distribute such modificationsor work under the terms of Section 1 above, providedthat you also meet all of these conditions:You must cause the modified files to carrya.prominent notices stating that you changed thefiles and the date of any change.You must cause any work that you distribute orb.publish, that in whole or in part contains or isderived from the Program or any part thereof, to belicensed as a whole at no charge to all third partiesunder the terms of this License.
34Appendix F Software License AgreementIf the modified program normally reads commandsc.interactively when run, you must cause it, whenstarted running for such interactive use in the mostordinary way, to print or display an announcementincluding an appropriate copyright notice anda notice that there is no warranty (or else, sayingthat you provide a warranty) and that users mayredistribute the program under these conditions,and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself isinteractive but does not normally print such anannouncement, your work based on the Programis not required to print an announcement.)These requirements apply to the modified work asa whole. If identifiable sections of that work are notderived from the Program, and can be reasonablyconsidered independent and separate works inthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do notapply to those sections when you distribute them asseparate works. But when you distribute the samesections as part of a whole which is a work based onthe Program, the distribution of the whole must be onthe terms of this License, whose permissions for otherlicensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to eachand every part regardless of who wrote it.Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rightsor contest your rights to work written entirely by you;rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control thedistribution of derivative or collective works based onthe Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work notbased on the Program with the Program (or with awork based on the Program) on a volume of a storageor distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a3.work based on it, under Section 2) in object code orexecutable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2above provided that you also do one of the following:Accompany it with the complete correspondinga.machine-readable source code, which must bedistributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2above on a medium customarily used for softwareinterchange; or, Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at leastb.three years, to give any third party, for a chargeno more than your cost of physically performingsource distribution, a complete machine-readablecopy of the corresponding source code, to bedistributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2above on a medium customarily used for softwareinterchange; or, Accompany it with the information you received asc.to the offer to distribute corresponding source code.(This alternative is allowed only for noncommercialdistribution and only if you received the programin object code or executable form with such anoffer, in accord with Subsection b above.)The source code for a work means the preferred formof the work for making modifications to it. For anexecutable work, complete source code means allthe source code for all modules it contains, plus anyassociated interface definition files, plus the scriptsused to control compilation and installation of theexecutable. However, as a special exception, the sourcecode distributed need not include anything that isnormally distributed (in either source or binary form)with the major components (compiler, kernel, and soon) of the operating system on which the executableruns, unless that component itself accompanies theexecutable.If distribution of executable or object code is madeby offering access to copy from a designated place,then offering equivalent access to copy the sourcecode from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are notcompelled to copy the source along with the objectcode.You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute4.the Program except as expressly provided underthis License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and willautomatically terminate your rights under this License.However, parties who have received copies, or rights,from you under this License will not have their licensesterminated so long as such parties remain in fullcompliance.You are not required to accept this License, since you5.have not signed it. However, nothing else grants youpermission to modify or distribute the Program or itsderivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifyingor distributing the Program (or any work based on theProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this Licenseto do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,distributing or modifying the Program or works basedon it. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work 6.based on the Program), the recipient automaticallyreceives a license from the original licensor to copy,distribute or modify the Program subject to theseterms and conditions. You may not impose any furtherrestrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rightsgranted herein. You are not responsible for enforcingcompliance by third parties to this License.
35Appendix F Software License AgreementIf, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation7.of patent infringement or for any other reason (notlimited to patent issues), conditions are imposed onyou (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise)that contradict the conditions of this License, they donot excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneouslyyour obligations under this License and any otherpertinent obligations, then as a consequence youmay not distribute the Program at all. For example,if a patent license would not permit royalty-freeredistribution of the Program by all those who receivecopies directly or indirectly through you, then the onlyway you could satisfy both it and this License would beto refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.If any portion of this section is held invalid orunenforceable under any particular circumstance,the balance of the section is intended to apply andthe section as a whole is intended to apply in othercircumstances.It is not the purpose of this section to induce you toinfringe any patents or other property right claims orto contest validity of any such claims; this section hasthe sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the freesoftware distribution system, which is implementedby public license practices. Many people havemade generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in relianceon consistent application of that system; it is up tothe author/donor to decide if he or she is willing todistribute software through any other system and alicensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clearwhat is believed to be a consequence of the rest of thisLicense.If the distribution and/or use of the Program is8.restricted in certain countries either by patents or bycopyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holderwho places the Program under this License may add anexplicit geographical distribution limitation excludingthose countries, so that distribution is permitted onlyin or among countries not thus excluded. In such case,this License incorporates the limitation as if written inthe body of this License. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised9.and/or new versions of the General Public Licensefrom time to time. Such new versions will be similar inspirit to the present version, but may differ in detail toaddress new problems or concerns.Each version is given a distinguishing version number.If the Program specifies a version number of thisLicense which applies to it and “any later version”, youhave the option of following the terms and conditionseither of that version or of any later version publishedby the Free Software Foundation. If the Program doesnot specify a version number of this License, youmay choose any version ever published by the FreeSoftware Foundation.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into10.other free programs whose distribution conditions aredifferent, write to the author to ask for permission. Forsoftware which is copyrighted by the Free SoftwareFoundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; wesometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision willbe guided by the two goals of preserving the free statusof all derivatives of our free software and of promotingthe sharing and reuse of software generally.NO WARRANTYBECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,11.THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THEEXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THEPROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANYKIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OFMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULARPURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY ANDPERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOUASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,REPAIR OR CORRECTION.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR12.AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/ORREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE,BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANYGENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIALDAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TOUSE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TOLOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATEOR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES ORA FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANYOTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHERPARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OFSUCH DAMAGES.END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONSEND OF SCHEDULE 2Schedule 3If this Linksys product contains open source softwarelicensed under Version 2.1 of the “GNU Lesser General PublicLicense” then the license terms below in this Schedule 3will apply to that open source software.

36Appendix F Software License AgreementGNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSEVersion 2.1, February 1999Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,USAEveryone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatimcopies of this license document, but changing it is notallowed.[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It alsocounts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License,version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]PreambleThe licenses for most software are designed to take awayyour freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNUGeneral Public Licenses are intended to guarantee yourfreedom to share and change free software—to makesure the software is free for all its users.This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies tosome specially designated software packages—typicallylibraries—of the Free Software Foundation and otherauthors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but wesuggest you first think carefully about whether this licenseor the ordinary General Public License is the better strategyto use in any particular case, based on the explanationsbelow.When we speak of free software, we are referring tofreedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licensesare designed to make sure that you have the freedomto distribute copies of free software (and charge for thisservice if you wish); that you receive source code or canget it if you want it; that you can change the software anduse pieces of it in new free programs; and that you areinformed that you can do these things.To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions thatforbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask youto surrender these rights. These restrictions translate tocertain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.For example, if you distribute copies of the library,whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipientsall the rights that we gave you. You must make sure thatthey, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide completeobject files to the recipients, so that they can relink themwith the library after making changes to the library andrecompiling it. And you must show them these terms sothey know their rights.We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) wecopyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license,which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clearthat there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if thelibrary is modified by someone else and passed on, therecipients should know that what they have is not theoriginal version, so that the original author’s reputationwill not be affected by problems that might be introducedby others.Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to theexistence of any free program. We wish to make surethat a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from apatent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent licenseobtained for a version of the library must be consistentwith the full freedom of use specified in this license.Most GNU software, including some libraries, is coveredby the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license,the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certaindesignated libraries, and is quite different from theordinary General Public License. We use this license forcertain libraries in order to permit linking those librariesinto non-free programs.When a program is linked with a library, whetherstatically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivativeof the original library. The ordinary General PublicLicense therefore permits such linking only if the entirecombination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser GeneralPublic License permits more lax criteria for linking othercode with the library.We call this license the “Lesser” General Public Licensebecause it does Less to protect the user’s freedom thanthe ordinary General Public License. It also providesother free software developers Less of an advantage overcompeting non-free programs. These disadvantages arethe reason we use the ordinary General Public Licensefor many libraries. However, the Lesser license providesadvantages in certain special circumstances.For example, on rare occasions, there may be a specialneed to encourage the widest possible use of a certainlibrary, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achievethis, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library.A more frequent case is that a free library does the samejob as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there islittle to gain by limiting the free library to free softwareonly, so we use the Lesser General Public License.In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to usea large body of free software. For example, permission touse the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables manymore people to use the whole GNU operating system, aswell as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.Although the Lesser General Public License is Lessprotective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that theuser of a program that is linked with the Library has the
37Appendix F Software License Agreementfreedom and the wherewithal to run that program using amodified version of the Library.The precise terms and conditions for copying, distributionand modification follow. Pay close attention to thedifference between a “work based on the library” and a“work that uses the library”. The former contains codederived from the library, whereas the latter must becombined with the library in order to run.GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSETERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATIONThis License Agreement applies to any software library0.or other program which contains a notice placed bythe copyright holder or other authorized party sayingit may be distributed under the terms of this LesserGeneral Public License (also called “this License”). Eachlicensee is addressed as “you”. A “library” means a collection of software functionsand/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linkedwith application programs (which use some of thosefunctions and data) to form executables.The “Library”, below, refers to any such software libraryor work which has been distributed under these terms.A “work based on the Library” means either the Libraryor any derivative work under copyright law: that is tosay, a work containing the Library or a portion of it,either verbatim or with modifications and/or translatedstraightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter,translation is included without limitation in the term“modification”.)“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library,complete source code means all the source code forall modules it contains, plus any associated interfacedefinition files, plus the scripts used to controlcompilation and installation of the library.Activities other than copying, distribution andmodification are not covered by this License; they areoutside its scope. The act of running a program usingthe Library is not restricted, and output from such aprogram is covered only if its contents constitute awork based on the Library (independent of the useof the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that istrue depends on what the Library does and what theprogram that uses the Library does.You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the1.Library’s complete source code as you receive it, inany medium, provided that you conspicuously andappropriately publish on each copy an appropriatecopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keepintact all the notices that refer to this License and tothe absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferringa copy, and you may at your option offer warrantyprotection in exchange for a fee.You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or2.any portion of it, thus forming a work based on theLibrary, and copy and distribute such modificationsor work under the terms of Section 1 above, providedthat you also meet all of these conditions:The modified work must itself be a softwarea)library.You must cause the files modified to carryb)prominent notices stating that you changed thefiles and the date of any change.You must cause the whole of the work to bec)licensed at no charge to all third parties under theterms of this License.If a facility in the modified Library refers to a functiond)or a table of data to be supplied by an applicationprogram that uses the facility, other than as anargument passed when the facility is invoked, thenyou must make a good faith effort to ensure that,in the event an application does not supply suchfunction or table, the facility still operates, andperforms whatever part of its purpose remainsmeaningful.(For example, a function in a library to computesquare roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore,Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this functionmust be optional: if the application does not supplyit, the square root function must still computesquare roots.)These requirements apply to the modified work asa whole. If identifiable sections of that work are notderived from the Library, and can be reasonablyconsidered independent and separate works inthemselves, then this License, and its terms, donot apply to those sections when you distributethem as separate works. But when you distributethe same sections as part of a whole which is awork based on the Library, the distribution of thewhole must be on the terms of this License, whosepermissions for other licensees extend to the entirewhole, and thus to each and every part regardlessof who wrote it.
38Appendix F Software License AgreementThus, it is not the intent of this section to claimrights or contest your rights to work written entirelyby you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right tocontrol the distribution of derivative or collectiveworks based on the Library.In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or witha work based on the Library) on a volume of astorage or distribution medium does not bring theother work under the scope of this License.You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU3.General Public License instead of this License to agiven copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter allthe notices that refer to this License, so that they referto the ordinary GNU General Public License, version2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version thanversion 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public Licensehas appeared, then you can specify that versioninstead if you wish.) Do not make any other change inthese notices.Once this change is made in a given copy, it isirreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU GeneralPublic License applies to all subsequent copies andderivative works made from that copy.This option is useful when you wish to copy part of thecode of the Library into a program that is not a library.You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion4.or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code orexecutable form under the terms of Sections 1 and2 above provided that you accompany it with thecomplete corresponding machine-readable sourcecode, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily usedfor software interchange.If distribution of object code is made by offeringaccess to copy from a designated place, then offeringequivalent access to copy the source code from thesame place satisfies the requirement to distributethe source code, even though third parties are notcompelled to copy the source along with the objectcode.A program that contains no derivative of any portion5.of the Library, but is designed to work with the Libraryby being compiled or linked with it, is called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is nota derivative work of the Library, and therefore fallsoutside the scope of this License.However, linking a “work that uses the Library” withthe Library creates an executable that is a derivativeof the Library (because it contains portions of theLibrary), rather than a “work that uses the library”. Theexecutable is therefore covered by this License. Section6 states terms for distribution of such executables.When a “work that uses the Library” uses material froma header file that is part of the Library, the object codefor the work may be a derivative work of the Libraryeven though the source code is not. Whether this istrue is especially significant if the work can be linkedwithout the Library, or if the work is itself a library. Thethreshold for this to be true is not precisely defined bylaw.If such an object file uses only numerical parameters,data structure layouts and accessors, and small macrosand small inline functions (ten lines or less in length),then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardlessof whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executablescontaining this object code plus portions of the Librarywill still fall under Section 6.)Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, youmay distribute the object code for the work under theterms of Section 6. Any executables containing thatwork also fall under Section 6, whether or not they arelinked directly with the Library itself.As an exception to the Sections above, you may also6.combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with theLibrary to produce a work containing portions of theLibrary, and distribute that work under terms of yourchoice, provided that the terms permit modificationof the work for the customer’s own use and reverseengineering for debugging such modifications.You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that theLibrary and its use are covered by this License. Youmust supply a copy of this License. If the work duringexecution displays copyright notices, you must includethe copyright notice for the Library among them, aswell as a reference directing the user to the copy of thisLicense. Also, you must do one of these things:Accompany the work with the completea)corresponding machine-readable source codefor the Library including whatever changes wereused in the work (which must be distributedunder Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with thecomplete machine-readable “work that uses theLibrary”, as object code and/or source code, so thatthe user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing themodified Library. (It is understood that the userwho changes the contents of definitions files in theLibrary will not necessarily be able to recompile theapplication to use the modified definitions.)
39Appendix F Software License AgreementUse a suitable shared library mechanism for linkingb)with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that(1) uses at run time a copy of the library alreadypresent on the user’s computer system, rather thancopying library functions into the executable, and(2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as themodified version is interface-compatible with theversion that the work was made with.Accompany the work with a written offer, validc)for at least three years, to give the same user thematerials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for acharge no more than the cost of performing thisdistribution.If distribution of the work is made by offering accessd)to copy from a designated place, offer equivalentaccess to copy the above specified materials fromthe same place.Verify that the user has already received a copy of e)these materials or that you have already sent thisuser a copy.For an executable, the required form of the “work thatuses the Library” must include any data and utilityprograms needed for reproducing the executable fromit. However, as a special exception, the materials to bedistributed need not include anything that is normallydistributed (in either source or binary form) with themajor components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of theoperating system on which the executable runs, unlessthat component itself accompanies the executable.It may happen that this requirement contradicts thelicense restrictions of other proprietary libraries thatdo not normally accompany the operating system.Such a contradiction means you cannot use boththem and the Library together in an executable thatyou distribute.You may place library facilities that are a work based7.on the Library side-by-side in a single library togetherwith other library facilities not covered by this License,and distribute such a combined library, provided thatthe separate distribution of the work based on theLibrary and of the other library facilities is otherwisepermitted, and provided that you do these twothings:Accompany the combined library with a copy of thea)same work based on the Library, uncombined withany other library facilities. This must be distributedunder the terms of the Sections above.Give prominent notice with the combined library of b)the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library,and explaining where to find the accompanyinguncombined form of the same work.You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or8.distribute the Library except as expressly providedunder this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Libraryis void, and will automatically terminate your rightsunder this License. However, parties who have receivedcopies, or rights, from you under this License will nothave their licenses terminated so long as such partiesremain in full compliance.You are not required to accept this License, since you9.have not signed it. However, nothing else grants youpermission to modify or distribute the Library or itsderivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifyingor distributing the Library (or any work based on theLibrary), you indicate your acceptance of this Licenseto do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,distributing or modifying the Library or works basedon it.Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work 10.based on the Library), the recipient automaticallyreceives a license from the original licensor to copy,distribute, link with or modify the Library subjectto these terms and conditions. You may not imposeany further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsiblefor enforcing compliance by third parties with thisLicense.If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation11.of patent infringement or for any other reason (notlimited to patent issues), conditions are imposed onyou (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise)that contradict the conditions of this License, they donot excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneouslyyour obligations under this License and any otherpertinent obligations, then as a consequence you maynot distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patentlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly orindirectly through you, then the only way you couldsatisfy both it and this License would be to refrainentirely from distribution of the Library.If any portion of this section is held invalid orunenforceable under any particular circumstance,the balance of the section is intended to apply, andthe section as a whole is intended to apply in othercircumstances.It is not the purpose of this section to induce you toinfringe any patents or other property right claims orto contest validity of any such claims; this section hasthe sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the freesoftware distribution system which is implementedby public license practices. Many people havemade generous contributions to the wide range of
40Appendix F Software License Agreementsoftware distributed through that system in relianceon consistent application of that system; it is up tothe author/donor to decide if he or she is willing todistribute software through any other system and alicensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clearwhat is believed to be a consequence of the rest of thisLicense.If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted12.in certain countries either by patents or by copyrightedinterfaces, the original copyright holder who placesthe Library under this License may add an explicitgeographical distribution limitation excluding thosecountries, so that distribution is permitted only in oramong countries not thus excluded. In such case, thisLicense incorporates the limitation as if written in thebody of this License.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised13.and/or new versions of the Lesser General PublicLicense from time to time. Such new versions will besimilar in spirit to the present version, but may differ indetail to address new problems or concerns.Each version is given a distinguishing version number.If the Library specifies a version number of this Licensewhich applies to it and “any later version”, you have theoption of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the FreeSoftware Foundation. If the Library does not specify alicense version number, you may choose any versionever published by the Free Software Foundation.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into14.other free programs whose distribution conditions areincompatible with these, write to the author to ask forpermission. For software which is copyrighted by theFree Software Foundation, write to the Free SoftwareFoundation; we sometimes make exceptions forthis. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our freesoftware and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.NO WARRANTYBECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,15.THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THEEXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
