Hey guys,
I was about to go at this myself, but i decided that before i accidentally wipe my data and ask you guys. My hard drive went bad...
Stop there! As a loyal Security Now fan, I have 1 word: SpinRite!

TPB seems to be offline, its not on ISOhunt, demonoid is shut down.. the other sites i know of ussually use file dump sites like rapdishare, ect.. and they most likely will not host a 120Gb file
edit:: I found one torrent online at

but there is only like 3 people seeding it
Is that... rainbow tables of LM hashes? Those take all of 30 minutes to brute force; they're not even hashes, technically.

Just for fun disable the firewall on the XP machine (as long as it does not have a public IP).
It's been disabled the whole time.
BTW, thanks, everyone for the quick replies and not letting this thread die.

I once had an idea to map out open AP's using something like Netstumbler and a GPS, compile a huge database, and use the Google Maps API to put a marker on each one of them. Never actually did it, though...

Change the VPN incoming connection settings so that IP addresses are assigned by DHCP and not a custom range.
No dice. Can't connect to the VPN server at all now.

Maybe use a third party remote desktop program like LogMeIn or VNC?

... did you open the proper ports on your switch? I noticed you said it was a V.8. so I do not think you would be using DD-WRT.. Those linksys firmwares can be kind of finicky on the wrt models... lest as far as I have known.
I have no problem connecting to the VPN server.
Do the connecting clients get the IP address assigned by the DHCP server on the remote network or the XP machine?If they do get IP addresses from DHCP you need to make sure that your default gateway is specified as the routers/gateways IP address not the computer running the VPN server.
The VPN clients get the IP's from the VPN server, which is a 10.10.*.* address. My LAN addresses are 192.168.*.* addresses. The intuitive thing for me would be to turn on Internet Connection Sharing, but Incoming Connections isn't on the list of NIC's I can share with. I'm out of ideas. Has anyone gotten what I've described to work or have another solution that does what I'm trying to do?

It's a Windows XP server using the stupid simple method Darren covered in episode 6x04. It's behind a WRT54G v8, which isn't very compatible with 3rd party firmware.

Straight to the point: I can connect into my VPN server, but I have no Internet access after that. I've seen numerous posts on Google saying "Oh, you're stupid, don't use the default gateway. Just uncheck the box at [such a location] in Windows." Problem is, one of my clients is Ubuntu, and the other is an iPod Touch. Plus, I want my traffic to use the VPN as a gateway as a security measure on open networks. I've become quite frustrated with Google trying to figure this out, so I came to the source. HALP!
EDIT: A recap of my replies in this thread:
- I'd like to reiterate that I have no problem connecting to the VPN server, even from a remote network.
- My VPN clients get an address from the range I specified in the VPN server. If I change it to give addresses from DHCP, VPN clients cannot connect at all.
- The firewall on the VPN server is down. It sits behind a router with only the necessary ports forwarded.
And a side note: The WRT54G v8 is capable of running Micro DD-WRT, which (correct me if I'm wrong) doesn't support running a VPN server on the router itself.
Can anyone recommend whole disk encryption for a Netbook?

If you plan to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, you could use BitLocker... if you want to... I guess.
