  1. Sure, and watch neither of the machines get to the internet....
  2. No, once you connect to your neighbor's wifi you will show up on the host list.
  3. Doesn't the stock linksys firmware support repeaters? This is really what the op wants.
  4. It's pretty sweet. I've got an esxi server running for our support folks to break. We run the full version esx servers for our file servers.
  5. Do you already have a wireless network running? I'm thinking a cheap (craigslist, fleabay, donation) laptop would work pretty good for this.
  6. I'm not even sure if you'd want to run any virtual machines on a media pc. Nothing worse than having a movie crap out at the good part because some process on one of the vm's decides it's more important. Now running the media server part would most likely work out okay.
  7. The router is probably the piece of hardware.
  8. If you can find something that can crack 128 bit 3DES encryption you're golden. Just to let you know, the banking industry uses this type of encryption for their electronic transfers, so it's probably not easily crackable. Most likely in the same boat as brute forcing a good wpa2 password.
  9. Heh, that looks familiar. How are you attaching the components to the inside or your case?
  10. Span ports are cool, but can get overrun (you'll lose stuff) with a lot of traffic on the network.
  11. What kind of fucked up operating system do you use?? I've not seen one in about 5 years that will automagically connect. They all ask first now. Personal opinions have nothing to do with the law. You don't like the law? Too bad, it's still the law. Until you convince your mayor, governor, congressman, whatever to change it, that's what we're supposed to go by. I've been seeing these kinds of "discussions" for a very long time, and just like beakmyn said, there's only really two groups. Those that abide by the laws, and those who try to justify themselves around them.
  12. Yea, the moving company didn't like it though. It doesn't fit in the shipping crates, and it's all steel, so it weighs about 200 pounds empty.
  13. I guess I'll keep this thread alive. Here's the home network. http://web.mac.com/barrywoods/Site/Network_2.0.html Dude! Cable management!!!! ;)
  14. Can you get much money for a newb? I didn't think they were worth much.
  15. That's okay, I'm not 100% sure where I acquired it. :)
  16. Actually it is. You're right it's not enough to keep people out of your network, but it is enough in the eyes of the law that you "took steps to prevent unauthorized access". Pretty much anywhere in the US, unless you have express permission from the network owner it's illegal to connect.
  17. This thread needs a serious dose of,
  18. It will run. I worry about running a firewall as an application though, cause really that's what it becomes when running in a vm. In my opinion it would be better to just pick up an older low power laptop, or mini-itx machine to run the firewall as a dedicated box.
  19. That doesn't stop someone from booting with a cd though. It's still the same thing really, if you have physical access to the machine, passwords don't matter.
  20. This is off the cowpatty page. NOTE: coWPAtty 4.0 and above also include WPA2 attack capabilities (usage remains the same). http://wirelessdefence.org/Contents/coWPAttyMain.htm I've not tried it yet, I'll give it a shot when I get home tonight.
  21. I know a guy that screwed up his truecrypt encrypted laptop, in the middle of shmoocon. We gave him all kinds of shit for that one.
  22. DMCRYPT/LUKS works pretty well. That's what Ubuntu uses for whole disk encryption. The only part that isn't encrypted is /boot. There's a how-to on the ubuntu forums somewhere that shows how to use it with key files. I had a machine using a key file stored on a thumb drive. With the drive inserted the machine would boot, without it would ask for the key. Just make sure you back up that file!
