Hello all, I'm working on an open-source security project related to NTFS file system on Windows.
Requirements:
- Advanced C language programmer.
- Average GNU-Linux and Windows user.
- Have a linux distribution with 2.6.x kernel version and Windows version with NTFS support.
- Download latest versions of GNU Coreutils and NTFS-3G files.
For people who are interested send me an email on edgard dot chammas at ma3bar dot org

Could you give more details about the project?
I'm a fairly skilled C developer (you could find some of my work lying around the programming section). I have solid knowledge on Linux although little on low-level stuff. I work exclusively on a 2.6 kernel, which means I have no access to a Windows machine (I also have very little knowledge of how that black box works). Coreutils and NTFS-3G come installed by default on my Ubuntu box.
I could be interested, tell me more.

Hello rahmu,
What I meant by the Coreutils and NTFS-3G is the source code not the binary.
There is a tool called chntpw, I'm not sure if you have heard of it. It actually do an offline decryption for the SAM file in order to change or reset a Windows user password. In a normal scenario, you would need to access this SAM file from a bootable Linux CD since it is protected by Windows. After you copy it, you can then do an offline attack on it, modify it and then put it back in its place. Now there is no online tool that can access this SAM file from Windows and modify it. This was just an example. The main purpose for this project is to create a tool that will have a low level access to the hard disk, search for some binary patterns, dump them and then modify them.
