Hilal,
i am not sure if i am asking the right question within the same subject,but i am configuring the firewall throught the telnet connecting / from winxp workstation. Is there any possibility for any internal user to use any tools that will haijack my telnet password - password for the firewall too!, and what are the measurements for securing the telnet session.
This is likely a trivial task: Windows: cain Linux: tcpdump, + others You're better off examining ssh solutions. <opinion> Have a look at a Smoothwall solution and/or LTSP, putting everyone on a (linux) thin client <bg>. cheers, /b --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evaluating SSL VPNs' Consider NEOTERIS, chosen as leader by top analysts!
