ATM has nothing to do with a VPN, nor does it "act like one".  ATM
describes a method of crafting frames of fixed size (53k ?) and 
nothing more. If security is of concern, you must use encryption, 
which is an application type of thing.

 3661's latest IOS on a dedicated OC3?/...im thinking what if some1
 vampire taps the line??..can they see the data??..

Yes

 
 2nd question
 
 I need to hack into my companys router (they want me to attempt
 it)...any hacking scripts or holes i should be looking for?..there on a
 3700 i beleive with 2500's on the wan for the branch offices...ios
 10.0maybe...lol...maybe even lower...

a quick web search will let you know enough to get started, this
question has nothing to do with studying for a cisco certification,
and is thus off topic here. 

 
 3rd question
 
 We have a checkpoint firewall...most "up to date" software revision (
 thats what my boss says, but i dont believe him..lol )...any
 holes?...anything i can hack with??...progs and such

Yes, but this question is also off topic, as it has equally nothing 
to do with studying for a cisco certification as the last question.
In fact, its even more off topic since it has nothing to do with Cisco
products at all.
 
 ps. Im not a hacker.i know you all are thinking that...hehehm, also
 any links or sites with this type of info would be nice

Personally, that thought didn't even cross my mind.  A hacker wouldn't
have to be posting off topic questions trying to get info on holes in
a particular OS or application, a hacker would find their own...

As for links, allow me to introduce you to a thing called a search
engine.  My favorite is http://www.google.com

RAS,IPs and PIX (security issues)

2000-08-23 Thread Cristi Piatnitchi

Hi all

Let's think about this:

You have a router with a few dial-up access cards (modems). These modems
have allocated a pool of addresses from your internal network. These
addresses are translated trough a PIX for Internet access. There are no
restrictions for dial-up access, the lines are available all the day long.
How would  you prevet the internal users(no dial-up users)  to change their
IP addresses and to access the Internet  in this way. The users know the IPs
because they access these lines in the evening from home. The  OS for wkst.
is Win98 so we can't do anything on the users' workstations.

The problem should be solved using PIX or oter router. The desired result
should be: enabling the internet access for these addresses just for the
evening hours with to disable the access trough the RAS for internel
resources.

Thanks for any comments or sugestions
Cristian
