I'm setting up a fileserver for a client which will host their client invoices. They're looking for a system whereby invoices can be converted from RTF to PDF with copy protection (no right click / copy-paste). In addition to this I'm thinking of using a one-way hash to verify document integrity.
Are there any command-line utilities for Linux which allows adding this kind of copy protection / DRM to pdf documents?
I've been attempting to back up my collection of DVDs to an external hard drive using Brasero. I've successfully ripped many of the DVDs to ISO with Brasero, but am now wondering if it'd be possible to burn these back to other discs if I bought them in the future. In other words, does Brasero leave copy protection in place and just bypass it when ripping to ISO, or does Brasero remove copy protection all together leaving me with an decrypted ISO?

(I know Sony offered to take back the CDs and exchange them for rootkit-free copies, but I never cared to go to the trouble.) (It's not particularly important, because all I have to do is play this CD in my DVD player.)

She used Windows Vista to copy her own DVD's using DVD43 [URL] to remove copy protection and 1Click DVD Copy to burn them. She would like to do the same on Ubuntu.

I have an external hard drive that is actually a 2.5" HDD from a laptop, in a hard drive enclosure. Now I have an issue, because the hard drive had linux Ubuntu installed on it, the hard drive is write protected. So I cant copy any files. I need to copy about 12GB of pictures from it, to my current comp, so I can format it. Does anyone know how I can remove the write protection so I can copy or delete files?

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there an app for Ubuntu, or can you show me how to write a PHP, Perl, or Python script, that lets me record a webcam screenshot every 15 minutes and upload it to my Dropbox account (or FTP location)? Of course, if I'm using the webcam for something else, I'd need a way to have the script automatically detect it's in use, or to let me disable it, unless it can still run while I'm using the webcam for something else.
Basically I want to use this for help in tracking down thieves who might steal my laptop and try to fire it up. Somehow I'd like to snag the IP address and a webcam shot every 15 minutes, with about 2 days storage. Need color and 800x600 too.

I know Slackware probably doesn't require too much protection from viruses or spyware, but I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to help protect it (other than Common Sense).
I ask this for 2 reasons:
1. I'm Paranoid
2. Every now and then I mistype a website I go to and it takes me to a completely different website which frightens me because of my paranoia.
So is there anything I can do to help protect Slackware, and in the rare case I get a virus is there a way to remove it directly?
Is it also possible to use Slackware (currently Master drive) to remove a virus on Windows (slave drive)?

How can I turn it off so I could modify my pendrive contents.
I'm using FSC Lifebook S series, to be more specific S7210. I know from specs and from Win that it contains onboard accelerometer, in Win Vista it works perfectly, with FSC supplied "Motion sensor utility" it protects hard disk from damage during sudden shakes of notebook.
The question is - i couldn't anyhow find any note in Ubuntu that it is recognized and is used as it should be. So I'm wondering is it done automatically or it is not used at all? If it is working is there any way to check some status of it, or if it isn't how to get it to protect hdd?
I'm trying to create a bootable HFS+ partition. I've succeeded in creating the HFS+ partition in Windows using Mac Drive 8, but need to set the partition to "Active" to be able to install an OS on it. The issue lies that when I try to set it to active in windows disk management it tells me that the media has been write protected by Mac Drive. I want to either set the partition as active (or at least disable write protection to allow me to set it as active in windows) or find another means of creating an HFS+ partition, which I know gparted claims to do but I can't manage to enable it. I'm currently running Windows 7 but I have Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD to use if necessary.

Generally I'm very happy with it apart from not being able to run some of the software I use but I do like the linux system.
Now, though, I find that it is progressively holding me back as more and more things I want to do require a change that involves the password protected access and I don't know it.

I work in a relatively small organisation of about 30 people (but with a complex network) and we've been looking to move our firewall to Microsoft's Threat Protection Manager on a mostly Windows network. I've been thinking we should have an IDS/IPS inside the firewall and I've been thinking about Snort in NIDS mode but have some basic questions:
1. Can anyone recommend a good web GUI for Snort?
2. Is it advisable to run both on the same machine? (Both from a POV of security and resources.)
3. Would Snort add any real benifit to using TPM?
I have a Samba server running on a Red Hat 5.6 system that provides a large file share to both UNIX/Linux and Windows environments. There are two user accounts that can access this file share:
foo - has full access to ALL files in the file share
bar - has full access to just one directory tree ('dog') in the file share
I created two different mount points, one for foo and one for bar. I've set all of the files in 'dog' to be owned by bar, which works fine for the bar account. The problem is, the foo account can't access the files. Also, foo and bar need to be able to share files, by placing them in the 'dog' directory tree.
I'm not sure how to set this up using standard Samba tools. I've looked in the Samba GUI available with Red Hat, and don't see anything helpful there regarding my need. I've Google'd and have seen references to using ACLs with Samba. Is this the right solution to this problem, or have I missed something?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed TrueCrype 6.3a on my 8.1 Ubuntu. Everything went fine until I got to the part where I need to protect my hidden volume from damaged caused by writing to the outer volume (these instructions: [url] ). I can't find the checkbox to "Protect hidden volume from damaged caused by writing to outer volume". The closest thing I can find is an option to "Protect hidden volume when mounting outer volume". Intuitively these don't sound the same to me. There are 2 difference between my setup and the instructions; 1) the instructions appear to be written for Windows and not Linux. 2) I am using a file volume and not a partition volume.
Does anyone know where the option is to protect the hidden volume when writing to the outer volume?

View 9 Replies View RelatedBecause of a hard disk failure I had to buy a new disk and reinstall Ubuntu 10.04. Prior to the install I was running the live cd version of 10.04. When I connected to my wireless network and entered the password the key manager wanted me to enter a password to protect the network password. Now every time I boot up the system the network will not automatically connect. (It used to do this). Now I have to click on the network manager and select my network. When I do this I get the key manager asking for a password.
So how do I stop the key manager nonsense and get the network to connect automatically as it once did.
When surfing the net do you need virus protection? And if so what do you recommend?
