  • Bartpe and KNOPPIX
    Portable Operating Systems for the Personal Computer: BartPE and KNOPPIX Eric P. Delozier, Electronic Services Librarian Penn State Harrisburg Library Middletown, PA Abstract • This poster demonstrates how two operating environments that boot and run from a CD-ROM drive are used as platforms for managing technology and delivering instruction. Built from Windows XP or 2003 installation media, BartPE provides a GUI-based environment that is useful for managing employee and public-access computers. KNOPPIX provides a convenient and portable delivery method for educating librarians and end-users on Linux and open source software. Although based on disparate platforms, both provide a vast array of applications that can support a library’s dual-mission of delivering effective information technology services and literacy programs. Distinctions BartPE KNOPPIX Licensing Mostly NonProprietary Proprietary (Open-source) Platform Windows XP or Linux 2003 CD Capacity Under 550 MB 700 MB or Requirements higher Cost Partially Free Free 1 Similarities BartPE KNOPPIX Networking Yes Yes Supported Devices Requires installation Recognizes most of some drivers for devices automatically maximum support. with little intervention.

  • Ultimatep2v: Quickstart
    UltimateP2V using Qui Hong’s FixVM-SCSI and NU2’s BartPE Document Version 1.4 & by Chris Huss and Mike Laverick Primary Contact: [email protected] Author Contacts: [email protected] [email protected] Page 1 of 21 Tested VMware Versions: ESX 2.x Technical Developer: Qui Hong Authors: Chris Huss Mike Laverick Audience : Very simple instructions suitable for even a “novice” user to create an Ultimate- P2V CD based on a “Classic BartPE” disk Objective: A step-by-step guide to creating a custom BartPE boot CD/ISO – used to clone a physical machine and reconfigure the virtual machine. In short – Free P2V Disclaimers & Acknowledgements: Firstly, Qui Hong must take the lion share of the credit for this development/solution. It’s he who has done all the whiz bang stuff! Secondly, it is Chris who was responsible for providing the step-by-step instructions to configuring Qui’s BartPE plug-in. He opened my eyes to the possibilities of using Qui’s plug-in. I must admit that I didn’t quite grasp the purpose of Qui’s plug-in until he and I swapped a forum post on the issue. Software Required: Windows Server 2003 CD-ROM (Recommended) Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 Symantec Ghost 8 Note: Not all versions of Symantec Ghost may be supported or work with BartPE. You might wish to investigate other cloning/copying techniques and plug-ins if this is your situation. Known Issues: • Diskpart in Windows XP does not work correctly. Reboot after the clone process if your BartPE disk is based on Windows XP Page 2 of 21 Ultimate-P2V using Qui Hong's FixVM-SCSI Community Support Statement • Both myself, Chris and Qui are very busy people – and much of our extra- curricular work is done in our free-time.

  • 10+ Things You Should Know About Rootkits September 17, 2008
    Version 1.0 10+ things you should know about rootkits September 17, 2008 By Michael Kassner Rootkits are complex and ever changing, which makes it difficult to understand exactly what you're dealing with. Even so, I’d like to take a stab at explaining them, so that you'll have a fighting chance if you're confronted with one. 1 What is a rootkit? Breaking the term rootkit into the two component words, root and kit, is a useful way to define it. Root is a UNIX/Linux term that’s the equivalent of Administrator in Windows. The word kit denotes programs that allow someone to obtain root/admin-level access to the computer by executing the programs in the kit -- all of which is done without end-user consent or knowledge. 2 Why use a rootkit? Rootkits have two primary functions: remote command/control (back door) and software eavesdropping. Rootkits allow someone, legitimate or otherwise, to administratively control a computer. This means executing files, accessing logs, monitoring user activity, and even changing the computer’s configuration. Therefore, in the strictest sense, even versions of VNC are rootkits. This surprises most people, as they consider rootkits to be solely malware, but in of themselves they aren’t malicious at all. One famous (or infamous, depending on your viewpoint) example of rootkit use was Sony BMG’s attempt to prevent copyright violations. Sony BMG didn't tell anyone that it placed DRM software on home computers when certain CDs were played. On a scary note, the rootkit hiding technique Sony used was so good not one antivirus or anti-spyware application detected it.
