First of all, big thanks to blindhog!

Been a few months trying helplessly setup pemu to no avail.

Only (big) caveat I had:

Once I followed to the letter blindhog’s instructions, I was stuck starting up the fw0 without a console. When I tried to telnet localhost 4000 it simply rejected my telnet conection.

Now, the catch was to create a blank flash file. Instructions were in the readme, but here follows a very quick dd commandline:

dd if=/dev/zero of=FLASH bs=1k count=16k

After creating your flash FLASH file, simply use that in the base flash field on the PEMU preferences Default PIX settings, if you cannot select the file in the select file buttom, simply enter the full path in the text field.

If you got the same problem as me, do as I did and you will now have a working pemu config.

Good luck to you and big thumbs up to blindhog!

I was wondering about something.
This video that you have made about changeing the serial etc. Will it be permently on a FO licsens cisco 515. Or is this just a test system..?
If not, do i just buy the licsens from cisco or?

Thx

Hi Josh,

The video is great. Can you create another tutorial for about the icmp ping from the inside host to the outside host through the pix ??? So as I can learn the basic setting of pix.

Thanks !!!!

Here is a tutorial that should help.

If you are using linux, this one might help too.

Nice “little dirty trick” for getting the serial number through google.com

Good presentation…like always!
