  1. True. How does a man who's bent as FCUK get into the House Of Lords after being kicked out of parliament several times. Someone REALLY needs to go to Mandy's house, crack is WIFI, download crap so he gets warning letters so it can be explained to him why it's such a crap bill. I'd rather see Obama than Bush any day. Bush was just a bully redneck cowboy. How the hell he ever got into office is anyone's guess. I'd be proud to help out for Obama. America's first black president. It's gotta be a good thing.
  2. The cached autofill e-mails could cause it. I use to have a weird issue setting up blackberries to connect to our exchange. Some would activate within a few mins. Others just refused and then would suddenly work after a few more tries. Then others just wouldn't activate. Looking at the logs it would fail on calender or their inbox. So I'd have to copy all their mail to a pst file, get their mail account deleted from AD and recreated. Move all their mail back again then try reactivity the BB. Then it would work first go. Odd. So yeah, could just be a corrupt mailbox.
  3. I'll have to have a look then, thanks.
  4. Or because some people just like it and think it makes them feel like they actually know what they are doing when they probably don't :) Bit like me :) Which is why I like using static IPs. My problem with IT is although I do 2nd Line Support I never specialised in anything so just know loads of little bits from loads of different areas. Guess I should go and brush up on DNS again then :) Thanks.
  5. I assume so as it's from a Netgear switch. That looks like the router but without the wifi and router feature. The power supply is Input AV 240v Output 12v 1A I can't say what the router requires as it has nothing on it's base and can't find anything on the net for it.
  6. Is there anyway to get on a Netgear dg834g v2 when it's not giving out an IP address? I've connected to it with a cable but it constantly never gives an IP so I just get the 169 address. I then can't get to it's interface. I factory reset it but nothing. It looks like something is going on as when I plug in the laptop to it, the light on the port I'm in is green and randomly flickers now and then to indicate traffic. I'm using a power supply from a netgear switch as this Netgear dg834g v2 has lost its. I'm sure that's not the issue. Anyone have any ideas if it's possible to get back into it? I've tried the recovery firmware flash from Netgear, but as I can't get an IP address for the shitty thing, it won't work. Time to take it apart. Set my laptop to static IP but still can't get on the router. The ip it's set as, which is on the bottom doesn't work. Well I assume it's set as that. And tried the recovery tool but as laptop can't connect to it, it won't work. I was gonna try Cain and Able to scan for MAC addresses on all available IPs but will takes ages so didn't bother. Was to see if it picks up the IP address of the router as it might be set as something else. May do that one day. ------ It's a bit odd this one. I still can't get to the setup screen and I know it's not giving out dhcp. However, I can use it fine as a switch. It was hooked up to my laptop. Then from the borked router another cable goes to the main internet router. Then I can access the net. So it's clearly seems to be working as a switch. Odd.
  7. I only really know IP4 roughly. I know IPs can be assigned by DHCP or you can do them manually. In my home network I set everything to static but have decided to leave DHCP switched on, on the router for new devices connecting (friends etc). But my kit is static. So my PC is 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.3 Other PC 10.0.0.4 NAS 1 10.0.0.5 NAS 2 Etc For me, this is all easy to understand and remember. IPv6 looks a nightmare. The IP addresses are going to be impossible to remember and have to type all the time. I haven't come across any video yet that has explained it for a noob to understand. No one seems to use examples. They all keep talking about the corporate networks where you have to buy IP addresses (I still don't understand that concept either), so I get lost. I'd like someone to have an IPv4 network setup and show it working and how it works. Then show the same network using IPv6 and the differences.
  8. Not anymore. His graphics cards are already out of date as they don't do DX11 and it looks like he has IDE cables in there instead of all SATA. Could also do away with all the lights, would run a little cooler too. I use to like all the lights on rigs but now they look tacky.
  9. Also a word of warning, I am no expert, but when I set up my SSH from work to home. When I'd get home and check the event logs, the ssh account had been hammered most of the day with people trying to guess the password. No one ever did but it's worrying. Oh and I didn't realise I was actually breaking the code of connection in our company. Their security was so shit though, no one ever noticed. To answer the actual question. I used this guide http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/Ssh/...DesktopSSH.html
  10. That's because it's actually fine. People were under the impression for a while it wasn't. It turns out its because a few coppers were making up the rules as they went and searching people taking pics with cameras. But it's actually not against the law and officers were reminded of this a while ago. Hence you weren't searched or stopped. Also, they were tending to target a certain minority group, people they think could potentially be terrorists. Regarding the original post. This is why I'm glad our cops don't carry guns, apart from the armed response unit. This is as bad as the copper in New York I believe it was, that pulled a gun at a mass snowball fight :)
  11. Because some idiots find it funny.
  12. Can you use an Ethernet to serial cable instead? The ones you can use to connect to the console on Cisco switches?
  13. Just been doing some tests with audit software. One being Spiceworks, the other being Novell Zen. I'm curious to know if there is a way and how you'd go about hiding a bit of software from both audit tools. Doing tests making the folders hidden doesn't work, removing them from the registry doesn't work (it seems the audit tools just scan the whole HDD to find software). I was wondering about encryption. If the folder the software was installed too was encrypted. But then I assume the audit would pick them up from the installed entry in the registry. Any one got any ideas?
  14. Regarding auditing software. Spiceworks is free and seems good.
  15. Logging in to the local machine. Unlocked the Guest account with NTpasswd but even that's not allowing me in.
  16. Is there a way to get around it not accepting blank passwords? What I mean is I've used http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ to clear the Admin password which is now showing as blank on the server 2008 box. Yet trying to login and it keeps saying the password is wrong, even though according to ntpasswd the password is now blank. Any ideas how to get around this without reformatting?
  17. Exactly our point but management doesn't listen. We feel they should spend their time fixing the issue of why the shite tool doesn't work properly instead of spending their time trying to make our work harder by blocking the tool that does work.
  18. Well we're based up north, to do our job we have remote packages. One new deployment, content management, asset management, remote management piece of shit software that sometimes doesn't work or has issues remoting, we turn to VNC. Management being the idiots they are have decided instead of spend the time to fix the issues with the new software, we'll make it harder for our IT to do their work by blocking VNC, forcing them to use the none working new tool. That's why we want a work around as RealVNC gets the job done ALL the time, everytime.
  19. Thanks. But it can only be RealVNC I can use. We found that putting it on a USB stick and mount the stick as a folder got around the block. But they are attempting to even block that.
  20. If someone was to block RealVNC via either AD or a 3rd party app, does anyone know of work arounds to get it to work? I know it uses port 5900 and I assume all they'd have to do is block that port. But can it use any port? Could you sent the VNC server client to run on port 80? That way they can't block that port?
  21. I just thought, isn't it a bit ironic that they are claiming to be ant-sec and against full disclosure of exploits etc. Yet release their ezine in with user names and passwords? Which in itself is full disclosure.
  22. For all reading this, yes, I want a noob guide. I am one and am not ashamed. We all have to start somewhere. Would be an interesting article to do. You're not attacking anyone, it's more like a honeypot than anything.
  23. To be honest, all of it as I haven't even started to attempt it. I'd like a step by step guide or where to start. What you need to set it up. What OSs are used etc.
  24. Anyone got any info, like a step by step clear guide on how to set this up :) http://www.ex-parrot.com/pete/upside-down-ternet.html
