Pen-Testing Lab
So I have opted to build a Web Application Penetration Testing Lab due to my new job which involves allot of penetration testing work. With the introduction of new web technologies i.e Web 2.0/3.0 (whatever that is !)
I will release specifications and other details shortly.
On another point, during the installation of the pen-test lab, I came across a small problem installing a "donated" copy of Windows 2003 Web Edition :)
It seems after the installation (I used the serial key provided with the CD) when I ran Windows Update, Mr. Genuine Validation Update Tool complained since the key I probably used was "not valid". I Google'ed a few methods. All the hacks I tried didn't work. So I decided to use the FireFox Windows update plugin. I went the Microsoft update site to see if there was a new version of directx. It of course told me that I need to validate my copy. It ask me to install a plug-in however on closer notice, you will find the alternative method. Click that. Launch the validation tool to download from the links above and use that code. Happy Downloading of updates !
After that, I just decided to get an
I recently registered my old domain again 'sist3m.net'. Part of the lab will be located on this domain and other part will be scattered around the 4 static IP's I'm getting from TPG (my ISP http://www.tpg.com.au).
