You have no idea how true that statement is Jordy.  The answer is always no until the question is asked.

I've played around with it a bit and I like some of the features, but I don't know it near well enough to be useful with it.

One of the guys I work with theorized that you got paid more for having more on your shelf.  I'm not sure how true that is, but I will admit that you look like you know more.

Way to go guys!!

Are any of you familiar with the DISA STIGs?  I am working on a development project and am having issues with report services on a STIG compliant box.  Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks Don,

My wife just called and mine is at the house waiting for me.  Of course the kids want it almost as much as me.  Thanks Don for such a great forum and some really awsome give aways.

lol and who said crackers don't have a sense of humor. 

Thanks Don

Good luck.  It may not be v2, but syskey may be enabled on the target system and that could be where your problem is.

I would concentrate more on a scripting language like Perl or Python.

You could delve into the registry.  Windows tends to store that kind of information there.  Cain & Abel could probably help you with that.  Good luck.

Run it through your favorite cracker and see what comes out.  If it pukes its guts out, then it is probably NTLM if not LM.

lol! Looks like this could be kinda fun and different.  I'm looking forward to seeing what Ed comes up with.

We do this kind of thing as consultants and we are time limitted.  We use a laptop running Gentoo (I didn't pick this) with a 2.2 GHz dual core processer and 2 Gig of RAM.  We get most results back in far less than eight hours.  We have hit some large networks doing this.  But it all depends on what is going to work for your budget. 

For internal, I would imagine that you would be able to get your own server rather than an appliance.  An appliance limits you to that vendor and can make changing later an issue or running multiple products.  Happy hunting.

You can trace but you are going to get an geographic area.  Those traced are thraced with the assistence of the ISP.  The ISP handles the allocation of IP addresses and "knows" who has what address.  If it is a customer of theirs, they know who that customer is and probably have a mailing address for the person.  IF you have the IP address, you can use a utility like visual trace rout to see about where the address is.  You will definitely get a country and may get it narrowed down by as much as a state or even city.
