Goals for First Quarter
- Set up a small network
- Install Server OS.
- Set up Mail Server.
- Make Network work, computers working together and commutating.
- Set up firewall.
- Experiment with Network Security.
- Research packet sniffing.
- Install talk, or some other commutation means.

Goal Completion
- Setting up our Network

- We are still waiting on a Network card to set up our fire wall.
- Experimenting with Network Security
- We researched packet sniffing and found a program Wireshark that sniffs packets.
- We all had pidgin install already on our machines. Pidgin is an instant messaging service that can use AIM, MSN messenger or other hosts.
- We found Wireshark in our research and installed it on Willie's and Nick's computers.
- We successfully intercepted many packets. This long list included an e-mail, multiple g-mail chat messages, AIM messages, and a password hash.
- Once we intercepted a password hash we tried our best to reverse it. As of yet we are unable to reverse the hash.
- We have not tried an attack on a firewall yet.
