  1. Like VaKo says. Use LDAP. Check out the PAM modules, as that will tie in your authentication layer with externally available services.

    But are you REALLY sure you want to do this? I mean, you've just admitted to wanting a single point of failure.

    Yep. Ldap would be the best solution. NIS is also a good solution for network authentification but only works on Unix/Linux machines.

    It's not to hard to configure.

  2. thank you amego, lol question i cnt use kismac to crack some wep. i have the Apple Airport Card. on kismac it says i need prism base card. one http://www.ethicalhack.org/videos.php thy use this. The network card used in the video is a Netgear MA111 v1 USB device. You require a card with a Prism2 chipset to be able to reinject packets.  is there anything eles i can use to do this?

    I use a dlink usb adapter with kismac but I still can't reinject packets it yet.

    If  it's the same one I bought few weeks ago for kismac, the chipset is probably  ralink...I

  3. If you want to install linux on it, you have to use a bootloader like refit (open source) or bootcamp.

    I personnaly use refit and had no problem to use it.

  4. Until two weeks ago, I was almost a full time linux user and I received my macbook. So now, i'm playing a lot with macosX :P

    So now, I'm 50 % under linux (work), let's say 10% windows (Damn users and proprietary based softwares :evil: ) and 40% on MacOSX...the rest of the day at home.

    you mac problems are easily fixed just put linux on the mac :) lol

    I couldn't resist. I'm installing a gentoo right now on it in dual boot. :lol:

  6. hmm isnt it rather hard to find a users mac address if ur not allowed on the same network as them though?

    Well, with a wifi network, a card allowing you to go in monitor mode and a linux distro with aircrack tools, it isn't hard to get the mac-address of users and to change your own mac-address.

  7. Hi.

    Ok, I feel using a mac-filter address or WEP encryption key isn't really the solution for you. It's quite easy to crack your key and to change the mac-address to one of your neighbors..

    If you want to find who he is, you could try simples tools like :

    - wireshark : You can snif packets of the guy and maybe, you'll find pieces of information about his identity.

    - nbtscan : it will try to gather netbios informations of the computer and who knows, yu could find a name :)

  8. I don't want to make a linux pub here (oh...juste a little bit :wink: ) but for unemployed guys who want to work in sysadmin stuff linux is a good choice. You can study yourself and try to find a new job in the same time. The last time I was unemployed, I did that and found a job after three months with some linux stuff to do in this job.

  9. I'm confused. I thought these firwares could only be used by the Linksys WRTG-54G....

    I got one of these routers/switchs/AP but it sleeps inside its box. There is dd-wrt in it. I think I coudn't use open-wrt because of my original firmware so I had to use dd-wrt which was really easy to install.

    Assuming you can use tese firmwares, you should try to go to open-wrt first. I think it's more powerful than dd-wrt.

    If you can't use open-wrt, dd-wrt is still a good firmware, much more better than the linksys firmware. There are much more possibilities. For me it was like having a new equipment in my hands.

  10. hi guys i wanna start hacking and i need some tips...

    i have 4-6 weeks till schools back and we are upgrading our #$%^ed up windows 95s for flash new macbooks and imacs i wanna have a bit of fun with them... hacking fun... do you guys know ways to get leik a admin account pass for macs or brute force some of the teachers passes (unoticed) i realy wanna anoy some of them lolz....

    any tips scripts i have a 128meg flash drive for usb and a cd burner.

    The best way to learn whatever you want : RTFM

  11. Get a Dell or a Thinkpad? But buy threw the small business side, not the home supplier. You get a better level of support and less crap.

    I don't know about dell...but thinkpads are good laptops. HP has some goods too. I have an history with acer. The internal cd-rom drive died after one year and sony (5 years ago). The laptop was instable with windows...and linux...I really had some hardware troubles with this one. Medion is not so good too. The processor has to run slower now otherwise it's overheating.

  12. I love gentoo too. The installation isn't so hard but could be long because of the compilation of all packets.

    The most difficult part is the compilation of the kernel if you want to make your own. It was a pain for my new laptop at work. I spent few hours during the evenning to get the perfect config for my kernel.

    After the installation, the O/S works like a charm.

    Does anyone anyone know some good live distros? I need to go to my friend's house whose computer won't boot. I was going to run off a live cd, mount the partition, and put the files on a USB drive.

    Is knoppix the way to go, or is there a better distro for this sort of use?

    knoppix is fine for what you want to do.
