i can fake your fingerprint in less 10 min........
with simple scotch tape........bluetak and some powder............
these fingerprint reader makes me piss off laugh.....
google Results 1 - 10 of about 93,100 for fingerprint readers in linux. (0.16 seconds)
looks like that place may have some answers for you,
Kind of simple really if you are just dying to have a finger print reader for logon then you will need of course the reader, a finger print, thinkfinger dot sourceforge dot net (for the source driver) as well as dependencies.
Now the second part, BT is a pentesting distro that is designed to run off of a cd it is assumed that the person who operates said distro is pretty security conscience, having said that then that same person probably does'nt have a need for a fingerprint reader that is easily spoofed as shamevirtuel has pointed out.
:cool:
In my humble opinion I think a netbios password is 100 times more effective a t security than a fingerprint reader and thats not saying much considering bios passwords are pretty easy to crack.
for extrem cases you have liquid latex ........ this is the ultimate solution.....
I guess I really don't have that much experiance with them except on my toshiba laptops and its pretty easy to spoof.
theres one ep os mythbusters they make a gel finger takes them 1 week to do it, and they try nothing, then...they get a photocopy of the fingerprint and lick it, put it against the device and VOILA cracked open lol
So it took them 2 min solution to work, and others more complex failed.
search on youtube you will find the ep quickly.
