Thanks your help
Lets me explain
this is a local server
the idea is if any other except my boss of course try make a login with
my or other login and dont know the password, if this person try more
than 5 login with wrong password the system erase all home of this user
Why ? I have a lot of people that try login in server and I really need
make a lot of information security , I think that I have 2 possibility,
one, encrypt this information or erase this
I have backup of all this file in a save place
But all this information , all this files still in the Server
And this is a very strategic information to my company. So erase or cryt
is a lot of less destructive that this information fly away
Sorry to my poor english
thaks again !

Hi Jose,
If your information on that computer is so "hot" I guess, somebody who tries
to get that, knows what he wants and how he gets it. It this case, simply
deleting the files will not help, because it's often possible to restore
deleted data.
If I was the thief, I'd take a CD and a diskette with me to boot your PC with
my own system, or a screwdriver and take your HD out and look at it quietly
at home.
So, first of all, I would not connect a computer with very secret data to the
internet, so that a thief at least would have to come here in person. Then I
would encrypt the whole partition and change my good password every once in a
while. Finally I would keep my computer in a very safe place.
And - with my knowledge - I'd search for a reliable expert who can consult me
in security regards. This will not be for free, but if the data is that
important it should be worth the price.
kind regards
Daniel
