It simply kills the hard drive to all 0's - it basically goes to looking straight like it came from the manufacturer. I'll ask one of the techies here where they got it. It's pretty cool, they use it here all the time. Oh, yes, it was free I believe. Let me know if you can't find it (a search should turn it up), and I'll find out where it came from Regards, Edward. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
