Autopsy in Knoppix STD - What's its purpose?

[Kez]

G'day all

I've downloaded Knoppix STD, and it's very usefull for me, but I do have a few problems with it..

a. Why dont any of the servers run? I cant get the Samba server going :P, and the Apache one too

and

b. What's the purpose of Autopsy in the forensics section?? I've looked at it, used the web interface, but I dont get the case stuff?

I've googled for some tutorials, but I couldnt find any on it.

Any help would be muchly appreciated

Samba just needs setting up, excellent instructions can be found on the knoppix website..

Im not sure about apache but im sure youll need to configure it.
