Need help with Backtrack.

[TheMouse]

I'm posting this for a friend and it is related to a school assignment. I'm no network guru so I'm hoping someone here can help.

" i need the command to send a TCP packet with these options a)no IP options b)TTL=6 c)total length =600 d)no tcp options and e)source port 600....any ideas??"

Thanks!

I'm not the OP, but a bunch of schools do? Information security is a huge(growing, even in a bad economy) field and there are a lot of places to go for training in information security, penetration testing, etc.

To the OP: sorry, I don't have an answer to your question.

Good ones.

The better question is who visits the Networking section of an Anandtech while being so much out of the loop and asking questions like that. Which school would NOT use backtrack for a network security class? To answer your question, the school in question is a small private university called Carnegie Mellon University.

Thanks for the responses guys, my friend just handed in an incomplete assignment. Oh well.

Well if you're friends assignment depended upon others here or you completing it for him - then he deserved an incomplete. Anyone in IT should be able to know where to go for resources to complete their own assignments.

Clearly, as the OP implies, I am not qualified to do it for him since I'm not a networking guy. He's a student, not a professional. It was a very small part of the assignment from what I understand, so it wasn't critical to find the answer. If it was more critical, I would have picked up the phone and put him in touch with someone who can teach him everything he needed to know. Just thought I'd take a shot here since a post takes a second.

Saying he deserved an incomplete is stating the obvious. That is generally the outcome when an assignment is not completed.
