Hello everybody, i have a school project in tcp-ip, and i got two topics to learn:
1)TCP-IP security
2)E-Mail

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee can anyone of you post some links where i can find any valuable info about these topics. You must also know that i have two maybe three weeks time to get prepared, so again helppppppppppp.

Why Certainly: Here and Google

"tcp/ip security" and "email" are quite vague... you'll need to narrow it down a bit

[tye stik]

If you wanna mess around with TCP/IP security and have workable demonstrations to use in your class you should download 'nmap' from HERE. Check the tools list on that site too to find some neato shit to play with.

Here you are:
I have to cover these topics in security:
data encryption, public keys, kerbero, algorithms and stuff like this.
About e-mail :
protocols, pop3, imap, smtp, e-mail formats, e-mail readers like eudora and co.

If you need any other explanation please let me know.

for encryption, you can talk about SSL (used for banking and other transactions online through websites). SSL also happens to be public key based, so you should be able to cover 2 things at once http://tldp.org/HOWTO/SSL-Certificates-HOWTO/x64.html. Kerberos, Kerberos: The Network Authentication Protocol. For protocols like pop3, smtp, imap, and email encodings (i assume email formats means attachment encodings? maybe plaintext vs. html?) you can check out an RFC site, Request for Comments
