Hello group, I may have mentioned this before, so bear with me.
I would like to deploy an unpatched Windows XP OS for a hacking class. This is used as a target to launch several well-known exploits by students. The problem is when I try to configure Cygwin, I get a failure in setting the Windows Firewall. That is because there is no Windows Firewall in this early version of XP. Is there a known fix for this ? Can I 'safely' (relatively) comment out the sections of the config file that deal with the Firewall ? I know this is an unsafe system, but that's the point. We need this to show students the importance of updating their OS and protecting themselves from attack. Any idea how I can capture this unpatched image ? Thanks, Al Quiros Florida International University
