    Malware, hardware or other?

    I think I tracked it down. 7 hours of work (myself and an assistant) and we tracked it down to some sort of malware on one workstation. This station was checked numerous times with various spyware/antivirus scanners over the past week and they showed nothing. We ran NOD32 on it and it found a...

    Malware, hardware or other?

    All the systems are Dell, different models though. People have access, but this is occurring during the day while the systems are in use. At night/weekends everything is locked tight. Zvi

    Malware, hardware or other?

    No - NYC Seriously, though. Although we were thinking about the power, I cannot understand how it would repeatedly set BIOS passwords on different systems. This morning another system was affected. Zvi

    Malware, hardware or other?

    I have a weird situation at one location. Over the past week they have been experiencing systems crashing and/or restarting. When the system is rebooted, during POST, it prompts for a system password. There was never any password set on these systems. Now, I cleared the password and set my own...

    ASA 5510 VPN connect from inside

    Hi: I am responsible for an ASA 5510 that I am still learning to configure and manage. I need help with one item, unless it cannot be done. The VPN was configured by someone else and works fine from the outside. I would love to be able to connect to the VPN from inside the network - this would...

    Drafting company remote access policy

    >Not sure what you mean by anything affecting the LAN through the Terminal Server.< I mean can malware on a users system affect the Terminal Server? Zvi

    Drafting company remote access policy

    The firm I work for has about 40 employees. We recently put in a Windows Terminal server as well as a Cisco ASA. The idea was to offer remote access to our employees by having them first connect through the Cisco VPN and then connecting to the Terminal server. Everything works. My boss is...

    Security &amp; Auditing Recommendations

    Teknoratti: I appreciate your response. 1 - That is more or less the way things worked, except the timing was off. We are a small firm that rarely lets anybody go. 2 - I was afraid of that. 3 - Thanks. I figured out how to set auditing on object access - I understand that it will fill my...

    Security &amp; Auditing Recommendations

    My firm of app. 40 systems/users switched from Novell to MS 2003 server and I need some recommendations. (1 server, running Active Directory, DNS, DHCP and providing file and print services.) I have been going through the literature but it is hard to weed through the volume of info. available...

    Can't Boot -- Bad File Descriptor

    pansophic: I really have to learn my way around Linux. As I wrote in my original post, I'm a technical person, but my Linux knowledge is limited. I've heard about KNOPPIX before, I really need to learn more basics. Thanks Zvi

    Can't Boot -- Bad File Descriptor

    zeland Thanks for the help. I didn't realize that fsck wouldn't just check the partition. Zvi

    Can't Boot -- Bad File Descriptor

    Found Solution [bigsmile] It took a while on Google, but I found it best described in a posting to Linux-IL. The posting had the following quote from an unnamed source: Begin quote: How to fix "dup2: bad file descriptor" on Linux This error is actually happen because the /dev/null entry...

    Can't Boot -- Bad File Descriptor

    Thanking everyone in advance. I need to either get this system to start normally (best situation) or somehow manage to recover specific data from one partition. Dell Poweredge Server running RHL 7.3 ext3; 1 SCSI HD (36GB) -- single boot server (DHCP, SAMBA, SQUID) Getting filesystem errors...

    How do you use the NoNav utility?

    Have the batch file drop a file (on the local drive where all users have write access) when it runs. At the start of batch file test for the existence of the dropped file and exit if found. Zvi

    Add new drive as C

    CyberWorld 2 problems with that: 1) WinXP is funny with drive letters. It doesn't assign letters merely based on the drive's location on the cable or its designation as master or slave. This solution was good for everything prior to WinXP, but no longer. 2) It's time for a clean install so I'd...

    Add new drive as C

    Thank you both. I will try your suggestions - probably on Sunday. The new drive is a 250gig Western Digital SATA so I will try their utility. The old drive is a 40gig IDE. I will have to get in the mood for some experimenting. I have good backups of my data, so I'm not too worried (unless of...
