Hello all,
Is there a tool in ubuntu that a user can start that reports the real world ip
address and configures a home router to open a port to allow remote
administration?
I have a friend or two for whom it would nice to get them to start a program,
report to me the details via MSN or Skype or telephone etc and allow me to
log in and fix or make a configuration change to their machine. I know how
to set things up using ssh etc but that relies on some initial configuration
at the their end. KDE has a nice VNC invite function but it won't do the
router config part.
It appears the likes of KTorrent and Azuereus have the ability to do some to
the router via UPnP to open ports up on the router dynamically so I am
guessing all this is possible.
Cheers
A reminder; the WLUG Fixit Meeting is tomorrow.

NZ Computer Society National Series: The Latest in Digital Forensics and
e-Crime
22 July 2010: 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Events Room 1, Gallagher Hub
Wintec City Campus, Gate 5
Tristram Street, Hamilton
In the latest National Series event, NZCS is proud to bring the head of the
NZ Police's National eCrime Group to Hamilton to present the latest in
digital forensics and eCrime. This is not one to be missed!
The Latest in Digital Forensics and e-Crime
Digital Forensics and e-Crime is a rapidly developing and cutting edge
discipline of ICT, contributing more and more significantly to crime
investigations in New Zealand and globally every year.
The NZ Police e-Crime Group is responsible for managing the digital
forensics for the NZ Police via three e-Crime Labs throughout the country.
In this presentation Maarten Kleintjes, head of the NZ Police National
Electronic Crime Group, will give an update on the latest local and
international work in digital forensics and e-Crime including recent
examples of high profile cases where digital forensics played a key part in
cracking the case.
As the devices on which people process and store information have become
more sophisticated, more widespread and more interconnected, the role of the
E-Crime Lab has grown considerably. These days there are very few crimes
committed that don’t have an electronic component to evidence and the number
of exhibits have increased from around 40 a year in 1985 to over 16,000 in
recent years. This ranges from people using their computer to research how
to commit a crime (or ironically how to get away with it!), or emails or
text messages which often unknowingly give the game away, through to more
complicated analysis.
Maarten will also outline EVE, the Environment for Virtualised Evidence, the
world-leading system created by the NZ e-Crime Group and launched last year
to revolutionalise the efficient and timely collection, indexing and
analysis of electronic evidence. This system dramatically changed the
turnaround of a Detective submitting a computer for analysis and access to
files and information from many months or years to several days.
The NZ Police e-Crime Group is leading the world in the area of digital
forensics, and this presentation will provide significant insight into this
fascinating area.
Note: Light lunch provided. Free for NZCS members, inexpensive for others.
