Gnu chess 5 doesn't support analysis mode, so you can't really use it to
do too much analysis (It can hack out the mate in X problems as well as
most). Some other free chess programs support analysis mode, and can be
used with either Tim Mann's various interfaces or other commercial tools
for analysis.

I haven't seen free programs quite achieving the levels of integration
that the commercial programs do.

www.chesslab.com has a freely accessible database, and relatively strong
chess program integrated, that can be used for analysis, but it isn't
like Fritz/Chessbase. Still a handy URL I keep in my bookmarks.
