  1. IPCOP on Free SSL VPN Solutions? · · Score: 1

    IPCOP, either with the built-in ipsec vpn or with the open vpn add-on. I use the built in ipsec vpn with certificates. The open VPN add-on is easier to configure/use but works trough SSl (thats not even bad as SSL has been proven to be secure all this years).If you play your cards rigth you can end up with a gateway that provides:
    - stateful firewall
    - ipsec(built-in)/SSL (open vpn add-on) unlimited VPNs
    - proxy/url filtering (add-ons)
    - IDS
    - all kind of traffic monitoring/bloking modules (add-ons)

    So you can solve your need plus get some nice extras.

    the day starts at 9:15 a.m. and ends at 4:19 p.m., simulating the typical work day
    if you want to simulate the typical work day try 9:45am - 8:30pm . That will give them a taste.

  5. Re:Remember the POWER OUTAGES on Shopping for Building Access Security? · · Score: 1

    Not if each controller has a battery. Each controller has a battery that keeps the magnet on for a couple hours. ANyway , all your doors should have locks. Access control (RFID cards etc..) shoould be just that, access control. Locks are for closing doors. Just remember to close with the lock on friday nigth.

  6. security on Ultra Wideband Hub Coming in October · · Score: 3, Insightful

    And how secure is the connection? I guess up to this point it would be easier to just physically plug and snoop around (you are already 10m from the pc), but once the range improves, is it going to be another WEP nigthmare? Will people wardrive looking for wireless usb printers to print goatse ?

    Maybee you can bridge two computers trough wireless usb, that would be fun, a mesh on interconnected PCs via wireless usb.

  7. IPCOP on Whitelisting Websites with Windows? · · Score: 1

    IPCOP + AdvProxy AddOn + URLFilterAddOn
    This will solve your problem only if you feel like changing your current firewall for IPCOP (OpenSource, Top choice IMHO ). You get a stateful fireall plus content filtering. If you want micromanagement capabilities you would need MS ISA (overkill for your setup)
    If you decide for IPCOP then you are set for the future. You can then implement DMZ for your servers, VPN, QoS, and much more either using the builtin services or trhough addons.

    Dont delete them. Archive them, and 5 years from now go back and see if you remember what was going on those days. I have gone back a read some old email and some of them made me smile. Funny how everything changes including oneself. This is the closest you can get to a diary, whitout writing one.

  12. back in the time on Engineers Working Harder for Their Paycheck · · Score: 1

    It wasnt unusuall for a nobleman to have many job titles. They could have being a lawyer/doctor/politician for example.
    Back then the reasons could be that theres was a need for a doctor and a lawyer and no one was educated but now is to stay competitive.
    The more you know/do the less chance that you will become obsolete by the rapid changes on this field.

  13. depends on What Processes are Necessary for Windows XP? · · Score: 3, Informative

    It all depends on what is the role of your PC. I used to have somewhere a list of services grouped by profiles like: gaming, workstation, networked etc.. Each profile had diferent services running. For example a workstation needs most of the services while a gaming PC will benefit from the least amount of background processes

  15. this is good. on OpenSSL loses FIPS 140-2 Certification (Or Not) · · Score: 1
    This will only mean that whatever was "wrong" will get fixed for the benefit of us all. Something propietary formats cant benefit from.
    Weathersby said OpenSSL has been challenged by companies with competing proprietary encryption technologies, and that those challenges are aided by the open-source model, which makes source code for the tools publicly available.
    "Now the opposing forces have the luxury of going in and trying to pick us apart," he said. "That's fine. That's fair. This is about dollars and cents. This is not about technology."

  18. scary on FBI Password Database Compromised by Consultant · · Score: 4, Interesting

    When I was in university the admins had a program on one of the linux labs that would try to crack /etc/shadow and if it found a password it would email you saying that your password wasnt secure. I dont remember if it gave a hint about what your password was but it definetly made you think twice about using a weak password someone can crack so easily. Its scary the FBI doesnt even do this kind of simple audits

    Is true that these digital representations are not real photography but how long until you cant diferentiate from a real scene and one generated on a virtual world.
