    Securing a network

    I have a small network with two w2k workstations and a w2k web/email (apache / ArGo) servers. I am connected to the internet with a Linksys router from a cable modem. I also have a third computer with fc3 on it. I would like to use fc3 to my network more secure. I have thought about using the fc3 box as a network monitor station? or some type of gateway for my workstations? Part of my dilemma is the server must have ports open in order to work, so how do I secure the server? I will so be trading in my linksys router for a Cisco urb924, so I know I can use the fc3 as a NAT/firewall, but I will still need ports (80, 110, 25) open for the server? would all like to use the fc3 to check and limit were the and what the workstation can go and download. Any help? Ideals or leads/tips. Thanks, Kevin
  2. Here is a web site with a few ways to do it: http://www.aplawrence.com/Linux/lostlinuxpassword.html I did by boot a live Linux CD ( http://www.knoppix.org/ ) then I made the hard drive writeable the edited the mnt/hda2/ect/shadow (your path my be a little different)file by removing all the characters between the colons on the root line. Then save the file and reboot without the CD, login as root and just press enter as the password. Hope this helps. KeL at http://all4him.zapto.org/phpbb/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=6

    I need a hard drive expert!

    I know it is a little late now, but once I had a similar problem and it was the cable. not cabled wrong but the cable was going bad. Just something else to look at.
