Running ASA on GNS on windows XP

Hi experts,

I plan on running a ASA on GNS on a windows XP machine but most of tutorial and setup i find in the internet are for setting up an ASA on linux systems. I already got the latest GNS on my XP and i got ASA image. I'm not to familiar on scripts, compiling and such that's why I'm really having a hard time understanding what they say.

Badly need your help guys on this, hope to hear from you guys.

Thanks in advance :-)

you cannot run asa code with GNS the best I could do is emulate a PIX 535 with PIX 7.2 software.

look at http://blog.ine.com/2008/09/11/gns3pix/ for a procedure...

hope this helps.

actually they could emulate ASA on GNS but most tutorials i've encountered are setting it up on either OSx or linux base OS like Ubuntu.

i've seen a lot of links on setting it up on linux, and i know some are able to set it up on windows machine but i can't find the right material i can understand to do the same.

i got it working! together with ASDM, just read thru second link, yehey! now IDS and IPS on GNS, but i think this would be more difficult :-(
good to know, when you do a show ver what does it claim to be?

for the ips there is a vmware version of the 5.x ids floating around for lab purposes.
