If you want open iso images in linux, you should mount that iso image in folder. To do this follow the below steps. 
 
Login as root and open terminal, in linux prompt 
 
# mkdir -p /mnt/disk  
# mount -o loop *.iso /mnt/disk 
 
The first command will create folder named disk in inside the mnt folder and the second command will mount the iso image to the newly created folder. 
 
For Example: 
 
I have rhel5-x86.iso file with me, now i am going to mount this in my linux system. 
1. I copied my iso file to my desktop (/home/user/Desktop) 
2. Then I created one folder on my mnt folder (mkdir -p /mnt/disk) 
3. Now my present working directory is /home/user/Desktop so I mount the iso file bu typing the following command. [root@linuxsrvr Desktop]# mount -o loop rhel5-5x86.iso /mnt/disk 
 
Now my iso image is mounted to folder disk, I can read files from the iso image.</div>

Users are able to access their DVRs from a remote computer or a smartphone such as Windows Mobile or iPhone ans now the iPad.  
In order to make the connection, some equipment and services are required. First a DVR with remote access/view function is necessary. Secondly, a broadband internet service will come in handy. And an internet computer or smartphone will be used for remote access. Generally a minimum of 800kbps download speed is required for basic video transmission, and 3Mbps is recommended for smooth remote video. Moreover, depending on whether the internet service comes with a fixed IP address and whether you want to share internet access, you'll need Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS), a router or both. 
 
There are a lot of different configurations in setting up remote DVR access. In this document, we will focus on setting up home orsmall store/office single DVR for remote access. 
 
The presumed configuration is a network DVR at home, a computer in the office or vice versa, and a broadband internet service based on a DSL/ADSL modem with dynamic IP address. 
 
Under the above condition, we start with checking whether the DSL/ADSL modem is equipped with router function. A shortcut to this is to check if the modem supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service. Another trick is to see if the modem supports Network Address Translator (NAT) or Virtual Server. The aforementioned services are indicators of a routing device. If there is difficulty in locating the features of the modem, the number of RJ45 jack could also provide a hint regarding its routing capability. 
 
If the device contains more than 2 RJ45 jacks as the following graph shows, then it should be able to work as a router, but not the other way around. <img border="0" height="120" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/KB-Modems.jpg" width="250" /><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><big><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7636229210507699574" name="Configuration 1" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"></a>Configuration 1:      <a href="http://navcoaustralia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106&Itemid=134#Top of Page" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"><img border="0" src="http://navcoaustralia.net/images/stories/BackToTop.png" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-color: initial; border-left-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-width: initial;" /></a>  
 
Single DVR, DSL/ADSL Modem, Dynamic IP</big></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/KB-NetworkDVR-1.jpg" width="480" /></div> 
</li>

<li>DVR: Set up PPPoE 
 
If the modem doesn't support router function, and, if the network is solely for the purpose of the DVR's remote access, then we'll configure the DVR's network setting into Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) as the following graph shows. 
 
<img border="0" height="280" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/DVR-PPPOE-Before.jpg" width="480" /> 
 
First, we need to physically connect the DVR to the modem using the CAT5 cable that comes with the modem. Then, in the DVR's menu, select the network page, locate and select PPPoE option and type in the user name and password in the setting page, then, apply the setting. Note that the user name and password here are the ones given by the ISP when you applied for the internet service. 
 
Moreover, if the DVR came with a default port number, then, just stick with that number. However, I deliberately changed the port number to 5566 for the purpose of highlighting the port-forwarding concept which we will come across in the second configuration. 
 
<img border="0" height="280" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/DVR-PPPOE-After.jpg" width="480" /> 
 
The above graph shows that the DVR has connected to the internet and has been assigned a dynamic IP address by the ISP. If the IP address didn't show up, or if it stays as 000.000.000.000, try rebooting both DVR and Modem; and recheck the DVR network setting. Note that it could take a couple minutes for the modem to establish internet connection. So if it doesn't connect, check the physical wire connection, the user name and password; wait for five minutes and check the network setting again. After successful connection, write down the IP address and Port number. 
 
Now, we'll test the DVR's internet connection from a computer, presumably located in another place with internet access. Start Internet Explorer on the computer and type in the IP address we obtained in PPPoE setup stage as well as the Port number. In this case, it is "http://69.31.192.22:5566". At this moment, accept whatever IE tells you to run, and then, a login window will pop up. Now, you can type in the DVR's remote user name and password. 
 
Since the presumption is based on a dynamic IP, the DVRs IP address could change every time the modem is restarted. In that case, check on the DVR's Network section for its new IP address. 
 
</li>
<li>DVR: Set up DDNS 
 
We have now established remote access for the DVR; however, since the DVR's IP address changes from time to time, it is not realistic to check on its IP locally when you need to access it. Thus, we need to set up DDNS service for the DVR. There are a couple of free DDNS services to choose from. In this example, we'll use dyndns service. Go to the website http://www.dyndns.com and register for a free domain name. To do the registration, you'll need a valid email address, a user name and a password. Note that for the registration to be effective, you'll need to confirm it through the email sent from the dyndns server. 
 
There are a couple of free DDNS services to choose from. In this example, we'll use dyndns service. Go to the website http://www.dyndns.com and register for a free domain name. To do the registration, you'll need a valid email address, a user name and a password. Note that for the registration to be effective, you'll need to confirm it through the email sent from the dyndns server. 
 
Unfortunately, the AVTech series DVRs do not provide local user interface for the DDNS service; however, we can still configure it through its remote IE interface. The problem is we need to do it from an internet computer. So, write down the router's public IP and Port number, and defer the DDNS setup until we have access to an internet computer. 
 
To configure DDNS from an internet computer, start IE and connect to the DVR as described in the previous section, click on thesystem icon and select DDNS. And, assume the domain name obtained is "safewaredns.dyndns.tv"; Fill in the DDNS setup fields in the DVR accordingly. <img border="0" height="240" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/ddns.jpg" width="480" /> 
 
To test the DDNS service using IE, type in the domain name "http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv:5566", the same login window should now be displayed. 
 
Note that the Port 5566 used in this example can be freely assigned. Just avoid the range from 0 to 1024 with the exception of 80. Since port 80 is the default port used in a Web server, thus, if you assigned the DVR's port number to 80, you can access you DVR by type in "http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv" in IE.<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> 
</div><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><big><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7636229210507699574" name="Configuration 2" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"></a>Configuration 2:      <a href="http://navcoaustralia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106&Itemid=134#Top of Page" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"><img border="0" src="http://navcoaustralia.net/images/stories/BackToTop.png" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-color: initial; border-left-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-width: initial;" /></a> 
 
Single DVR, Modem, Router, Dynamic IP</big></div>If there is a router, either included in the modem or as an independent device, it is favourable to configure a local area network which shares internet access with multiple network devices including a DVR and computers.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/KB-NetworkDVR-2.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up PPPoE 
 
In this case, we'll use D-Link DIR-615 in our example. First, connect the router with the modem as described in the router's user manual, and connect a computer to the router. Start IE in the computer and type in the default IP address of the router in the browser. Most of the router's default IP address is "192.168.0.1". Check on the router's manual if it doesn't connect. 
 
Next, locate the network setup page on the router and select PPPoE, then, type in the user name and password provided by the ISP.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="260" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PPPOE.jpg" width="480" /></div><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Next, check the internet status to see if the connection is established.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="500" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PPPOE-Status.jpg" width="480" /></div>Note that the IP address above is the router's Public IP address, and it will be used in a test from an internet computer later. 
 
</li>
<li>DVR: Set up Static IP Next, configure the DVR's network setting as follows,<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/DVR-StaticIP.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Set the DVR's IP to 192.168.0.10 and the Gateway to the router's Private IP address, which in this case is 192.168.0.1, and the port number to 5566. Again, the IP and Port number are for reference only. Just stick with the original values if there is one on the DVR. Write down the IP and Port value for the next step, port-forwarding. 
 
Two things are worth noting here; first, make sure the DVR and the router belong to the same subnet, which means, only the last number of their IPs is different. 
 
Second, make sure the DVR's IP is not used by other networking devices, i.e. excluded from the IP address range managed by the DHCP sever in the router.</li>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-DHCP.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up port-forwarding 
 
The next step is to configure port-forwarding on the router. Basically, hosting a DVR server is the same as hosting a Web Server. Select a pre-configured Web (HTTP) Server, if there is one, and forward the port 80 to the DVR's IP address and TCP port. Or, try routing the router's Public IP address at TCP port 80 to the DVR's IP address at Port 5566, which is the one we set during DVR's static IP setup.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PortForward.jpg" width="480" /></div>For more information regarding port-forwarding for different routers, please refer to http://portforward.com. 
 
</li>
<li>DVR: Set up DDNS Finally, to resolve the dynamic IP problem, set up DDNS service as described in the previous configuration.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> 
</div><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><big><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7636229210507699574" name="configuration 3" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"></a>Configuration 3:      <a href="http://navcoaustralia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106&Itemid=134#Top of Page" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"><img border="0" src="http://navcoaustralia.net/images/stories/BackToTop.png" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-color: initial; border-left-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-width: initial;" /></a> 
 
Hosting multiple DVRs</big></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up port-forwarding 
 
To host multiple DVRs, a router or a modem with router function is required. In this scenario, most of the setup steps are the same as configuration 2; only the port-forwarding part is different. 
 
Assume there are two DVRs. The first one's IP is 192.168.0.10, and it listens to TCP Port 5566. The second one's IP is 192.168.0.11, and it also listens to port 5566. 
 
The following graph shows how the router's port-forwarding is configured.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="280" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-2DVR-PortForward.jpg" width="480" /></div>Assume the DDNS domain name we have is "safewaredns.dyndns.tv". To access the first DVR by IE, simply use the address http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv. To access the second DVR, type http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv:8000. 
 
However, for multiple DVR access, most people will opt to use CMS software for centralized management; still, the same router configuration is applicable.</li>

Start Internet Explorer on the computer and type in the IP address we obtained in PPPoE setup stage as well as the Port number. In this case, it is "http://69.31.192.22:5566". At this moment, accept whatever IE tells you to run, and then, a login window will pop up. Now, you can type in the DVR's remote user name and password. 
 
Since the presumption is based on a dynamic IP, the DVRs IP address could change every time the modem is restarted. In that case, check on the DVR's Network section for its new IP address.

<li>DVR: Set up DDNS 
 
We have now established remote access for the DVR; however, since the DVR's IP address changes from time to time, it is not realistic to check on its IP locally when you need to access it. Thus, we need to set up DDNS service for the DVR. There are a couple of free DDNS services to choose from. In this example, we'll use dyndns service. Go to the website http://www.dyndns.com and register for a free domain name. To do the registration, you'll need a valid email address, a user name and a password. Note that for the registration to be effective, you'll need to confirm it through the email sent from the dyndns server.

Note that for the registration to be effective, you'll need to confirm it through the email sent from the dyndns server. 
 
Unfortunately, the AVTech series DVRs do not provide local user interface for the DDNS service; however, we can still configure it through its remote IE interface. The problem is we need to do it from an internet computer. So, write down the router's public IP and Port number, and defer the DDNS setup until we have access to an internet computer. 
 
To configure DDNS from an internet computer, start IE and connect to the DVR as described in the previous section, click on thesystem icon and select DDNS. And, assume the domain name obtained is "safewaredns.dyndns.tv"; Fill in the DDNS setup fields in the DVR accordingly. <img border="0" height="240" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/ddns.jpg" width="480" /> 
 
To test the DDNS service using IE, type in the domain name "http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv:5566", the same login window should now be displayed. 
 
Note that the Port 5566 used in this example can be freely assigned. Just avoid the range from 0 to 1024 with the exception of 80. Since port 80 is the default port used in a Web server, thus, if you assigned the DVR's port number to 80, you can access you DVR by type in "http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv" in IE.<div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">

Single DVR, Modem, Router, Dynamic IP</big></div>If there is a router, either included in the modem or as an independent device, it is favourable to configure a local area network which shares internet access with multiple network devices including a DVR and computers.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/KB-NetworkDVR-2.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up PPPoE 
 
In this case, we'll use D-Link DIR-615 in our example. First, connect the router with the modem as described in the router's user manual, and connect a computer to the router. Start IE in the computer and type in the default IP address of the router in the browser. Most of the router's default IP address is "192.168.0.1". Check on the router's manual if it doesn't connect. 
 
Next, locate the network setup page on the router and select PPPoE, then, type in the user name and password provided by the ISP.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="260" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PPPOE.jpg" width="480" /></div><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Next, check the internet status to see if the connection is established.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="500" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PPPOE-Status.jpg" width="480" /></div>Note that the IP address above is the router's Public IP address, and it will be used in a test from an internet computer later. 
 
</li>
<li>DVR: Set up Static IP Next, configure the DVR's network setting as follows,<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/DVR-StaticIP.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Set the DVR's IP to 192.168.0.10 and the Gateway to the router's Private IP address, which in this case is 192.168.0.1, and the port number to 5566. Again, the IP and Port number are for reference only. Just stick with the original values if there is one on the DVR. Write down the IP and Port value for the next step, port-forwarding. 
 
Two things are worth noting here; first, make sure the DVR and the router belong to the same subnet, which means, only the last number of their IPs is different. 
 
Second, make sure the DVR's IP is not used by other networking devices, i.e. excluded from the IP address range managed by the DHCP sever in the router.</li>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-DHCP.jpg" width="480" /></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up port-forwarding 
 
The next step is to configure port-forwarding on the router. Basically, hosting a DVR server is the same as hosting a Web Server. Select a pre-configured Web (HTTP) Server, if there is one, and forward the port 80 to the DVR's IP address and TCP port. Or, try routing the router's Public IP address at TCP port 80 to the DVR's IP address at Port 5566, which is the one we set during DVR's static IP setup.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="160" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-PortForward.jpg" width="480" /></div>For more information regarding port-forwarding for different routers, please refer to http://portforward.com. 
 
</li>
<li>DVR: Set up DDNS Finally, to resolve the dynamic IP problem, set up DDNS service as described in the previous configuration.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"> 
</div><div align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><big><a href="" name="configuration 3" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"></a>Configuration 3:      <a href="http://navcoaustralia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106&Itemid=134#Top of Page" style="color: #8b7f65; text-decoration: underline;"><img border="0" src="http://navcoaustralia.net/images/stories/BackToTop.png" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-color: initial; border-left-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-width: initial;" /></a> 
 
Hosting multiple DVRs</big></div></li>
<li>Router: Set up port-forwarding 
 
To host multiple DVRs, a router or a modem with router function is required. In this scenario, most of the setup steps are the same as configuration 2; only the port-forwarding part is different. 
 
Assume there are two DVRs. The first one's IP is 192.168.0.10, and it listens to TCP Port 5566. The second one's IP is 192.168.0.11, and it also listens to port 5566. 
 
The following graph shows how the router's port-forwarding is configured.<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="280" src="http://kcecctv.com.au/KnowledgeBase2_files/Router-2DVR-PortForward.jpg" width="480" /></div>Assume the DDNS domain name we have is "safewaredns.dyndns.tv". To access the first DVR by IE, simply use the address http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv. To access the second DVR, type http://safewaredns.dyndns.tv:8000. 
 
However, for multiple DVR access, most people will opt to use CMS software for centralized management; still, the same router configuration is applicable.</li>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Directory Security            </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">For all networks, systems administrators must keep track of who is accessing the network as well as control each user’s access to the various network resources. In most networks, information about users and their access rights are stored in a directory that provides user authentication and access control services.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">A directory service typically contains sensitive information about the user and service accounts that have access to the enterprise network and information regarding directory-enabled applications and services as well as other network resources. This information is sensitive in that the unregulated disclosure and/or disruption in the provision of this information and related services can interfere with business operations.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Directory security is fundamentally focused on protecting information, service, and resource assets accessible through the enterprise network. In addition to protecting information stored within the directory, the authorization and access control mechanisms provided by the directory service protect the services and information stored within your network.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Implementing security for the information contained in and the resources protected by Microsoft’s directory service implementation----Active Directory (AD) ---- is not a simple task. Although AD provides powerful management capabilities, these features introduce complexities. You must understand AD, the network, the corporate environment, and the potential threats and vulnerabilities before you can effectively implement security.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">In this chapter, we’ll explore directory security at a high level before moving onto an exploration of the possible threats and approaches to managing the directory service and information from a security perspective. In later chapters, we will delve into how the design of the directory impacts security and administration, then we will take an in depth look into Group Policies and delegation of directory administration. </div></div>
