Hi all have a question regarding LLFT (or suggest another sollution with this requirments)
-Is there possibility to set up LLF solution on a server that will have PXE boot (boot from network) in order to format 3-4 PC (or laptops) simultaneously
-If so where can I find demo/trial
-Where can I find prices for this solution?

Is interesting solution that you seek

report me in case of positive news.

Might be done (never tried it, but good idea here) via Linux & DD

Ref. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Securely_wipe_disk

Ref. http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter ... buntu-ltsp

Ref. http://linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/pxeboot.html


but needs some custom work here

Interesting subject btw

good luck

Thing is that this program LLFT was approved by my boss as secure and fast program.. so I'm looking for option to use exactly LLFT on a pxe-boot server. And I have one more issue -twice I tried to contact LLFT vendor to buy corporate licence but didn't get reply ( can some one give me email address of sale center?

Hi again, Update

Don't even know from what to start, in my research I found "Blanco" from MHDD. Information that I have from rumors says that it (Blanco) have sort of solution that I'm looking for (server-pxe boot - automatically erasing) and now - interesting moment
- i'we downloaded demo version of ordinary software (which says: it will not erase your data - it will only show the speed of erasing ) hmm ... 4 custom *nix bootable images + over 10k programs from my Zotac bootable pocket hdd = nulled...totally ... Thank's God I have a backup
-... Ok.. I'we requested a demo version of server solution (not available for direct downloading) and got answer that I will have it!!!... but only thing that I'we got - is silence
Maybe some one have a "demo" of it??

there are ways to run a server based ISO after a PXE boot. IIRC I read a HAK5 tutorial on Konboot, and you may be able to use same approach.

Basically in this case, the local admin password on all clients were randomised - no-one at all knew the password, and GPO would change it to a random password at each boot. Then, if the admin needed to administer machine, boot from PXE, run the Konboot ISO to login to machine not needing to know admin password.

Details sketchy but I know you can run an iso after a PXE boot - just make this ISO your wiping ISO.

Not sure if this is your exact question though - too early in the morning after a VERY late night!

Grate links, thank you. I`ve read before 1st and 3rd, but second link is just that i needed.
Only thing i did not find there, is how to adjust linux-based DHCP server. There is only instruction for Windows-based. And i`m kinda lost at this moment, going to try preform it tomorrow, but any advice could be useful

man sg_format
man md
man dd
man hdparm
and loads of time to read and even more than enough time to carry out the operation.
low level format doesnt happen in a snap. it works on 512 bytes storage block.
if you got raid or multiple raid on multiple raid scsi controller then more complex the scenario.
for this server scene i suspect the OS is linux/unix/bsd, and i havent seen many people use windows on dedicated server.
good luck!
thanks!
