  3. Steveo , found these on Remote Exploits forums: http://forums.remote-exploit.org/backtrack...ktrack-usb.html http://forums.remote-exploit.org/tutorials...lash-drive.html if you want to put it on multi linux boot drive then grab billix and open the readme file in a wordpress and follow the instructions
  4. http://sourceforge.net/projects/billix/ If you can follow a readme and a use a notepad you can get this to work for you. Post here if you need any help.-

  6. Linux System Administrator/ Web Programmer / DBA (offical title = IT/Marketing Associate) I have a degree in computer engineering. I got the job due to a lot of experience. If you want to work in IT I think a good place to start is to get basic desktop support down. If you don't know how to do that then why do you want to be in IT again? If you do then teach a class at your local community center for pay or for free to build cred. Also post flyers around your neighborhood and on bulletin boards around your area listing your skills and what you can do for them and steeply undercut the local repair shops. Get an LLC and you can say you owned your own company on your resume, looks great.
  7. I just wanted to tell everyone about Penguicon. It's a scifi and open source convention rolled into one. I have gone several times and it's awesome and you'll most likely not get any sleep or very little. It's May 1st-3rd in Romulus, MI in the Crowne Plaza hotel as it's now gotten so big that we need a new hotel to take over. - There are several talks covering a gauntlet of topics that can peak everyone's interest. - If your a Gamer we have a LAN room open 24x7 - Learn about open source software and programming - take part in hardware challenges such as the junkpile wars or anything but ethernet - Watch anime 24x7 - take part in masquerade - if your an experienced programmer or hacker take part in code sprint or start up your own talk. - Loads more and like any con your sure to learn a thing or two and have a great time. http://www.penguicon.org/ Maybe we can convince the hak5 crew to show up give a talk to two and have a meetup. Hope to see you there
  8. I have been a big fan of the Windows ultimate boot disk project. Currently you have both the live windows os and knoppix on a DVD or put it on a USB. I am pretty sure you could get any live distro to work if you didn't want knoppix. It seems to have been built off of BartsPE. Do really remember has been a couple months since I made mine. linky: http://www.ubcd4win.com/ you need to supply your own windows source and key so you can be legit if you want.
  9. I say go with a Thinkpad t61 (once you go black you never go back). I am pretty sure they are <$1000 last time I looked they were $700ish. I say spec the processor, graphics card, and screen how you like and go for the cheapest setting for the ram and HDD. Go to Newegg.com and buy your RAM and HDD requirements. This way you have an extra HDD and can sell the RAM. Thinkpads are solid machines and the case design is top notch, it will last a long time even if you treat it like crap. I had a A31p through college and then some. I had it for about 6 years and then gave it a new home. The majority of my developer and sys admin friends use thinkpads and love them.

  11. I know that. I actually have it backing up to the NAS but wanted to see if there was a workaround. I have tried if conditions and it doesn't help. I think its a no go. Well that data backup works anyway.
  12. here is the plan copy all .doc on system to My documents expect the ones already in My documents. Just try and figure that out without get an error
  13. In movies there is rarley ever any really os usage or apps. The one time I saw something that wasn't complete bullshit was a unix prompt in anti-trust.
  14. I am pretty sure hamachi uses a ssh tunnel. so you could try sftp. get winscp.
  15. I am writing some script for a migration backup for about 250 machines. The employees are alla little dumb and save .doc .pdf .... files in all sorts of weird places they shouldn't be so I am searching for and copying them all in c: and want to save them in My documents then copy My documents to the NAS. This is all good except it produces a cyclical copy error, as in it is copying from and pasting to the same place in it's mind. I have tried an exceptions file with %homepath% but that doesn't work. Any workarounds. I have already written the script to copy to the NAS instead of the drive itself but I would really like to copy everything to My Documents first. Thanks
  16. I like this little IKEA hack for a quick throw together rack that works well in an apartment. http://www.instructables.com/id/EV4ADGUY1SEZ7C92ZM/?ALLSTEPS If I end up with some rack mount servers this will be my first choice and when I get a house build something out of sheet metal and a steel frame.
  17. what was your stencil made from? I have had luck with manila folders. And I agree artist tape works well too.
  18. WE CAN TELL ME HAVE GOOD SUPPORT ON THIS FORUM Modern psychology belief says that negative reinforcement is good. And I agree it looks really sloppy. I would suggest stencils and spray paint next time. If you are not an artist I would suggest you stay away from (what looks like oil paint) hand painting.
  19. my fault, I call a lot of things scripts these days. I ment your XML plugins are barfing so get the ones from oct 2005 these: # XML::Parser plugin # XML::RSS plugin
  20. Hmm I think its a problem with your rss::to::html XML script. The new XML script might not work. I suggest downloading the XML script from the time of the video release. I think it was October in 2005. Things being open source and having several people concurrently working on something has a tendency to break things. It's linux get use to it.
  21. does anyone read past the subject line on a post anymore? I know you guys are trying to help but if you can't read the whole thing then wait till you can then post. It's just common courtesy to listen to what some has to say be for replying. Think verbal conversation
  22. Possible problems. Festival is pouched - solution: remove and reinstall You think the default voice is janky: Me too Solution: Look into Fest-vox If you are using an old machine speech synthesis is too taxing Try playing an mp3 in mplayer and if that works well maybe it's not to slow. might want to throw your code up just so we can make sure it has no bugs.
  23. Consider yourself very lucky. While reading my daily blogs I found this guys project that sounds like something you could try and actually get to work. http://kc0wys.homeunix.com/projects/electr...s/11/index.html
  24. Wow this question has been asked so many times. Long answer yes you can use a laptop LCD as a monitor but you need a controller card or a really extensive knowledge of computer graphic architecture. Both are overly expensive with messy/ ugly results and would be much better if you just bought a monitor. Short answer: No
