I have been hired into a new company. one task I have been challenged with is to discover the password for a netgear GS752TP switch we have, but i cannot wipe the switch yet. this is because no one has documentation on this switch, and they don't have VLAN information on it (this switch will be removed from PROD once i can audit it). is there a way to 'discover' the password, or otherwise reset it like you can with Cisco switches?

wow - perfect; i need to read that better

i have a mk4, iv had it a little while now; and i was playing with it today, i wanted to flash the new firmware and do some stuff at work using it, and after the flash of 2.7, i cannot connect to 172.16.42.1/pineapple i can ssh into it, and it shows version 2.7, but i cannot connect via browser. i ried connecting via 2 different PC's with the same result, it tried to redirect me to 172.16.42.1/redirect.php and it just holds there. any tips/solutions would be greatly appreciated. i tried factory reset, but that didnt help. it is functioning as i can see the wifi access point on several machines, and i can connect to them, but even through wifi, i cannot get to the web interface. please help if you can.

can i ask what your trying to do? i only ask because normal applications (games, movies etc..) wont run over a cluster configuration. if your trying to compile huge data (video rendering, 3d modeling, web service load distribution) then there is applications that are built for clusters that will function on your home cluster. i just don't want to see someone put all the work into building a cluster, and realize it will not so what they thought it would do.

anyone see this: https://github.com/AlexWebr/evilmaid_chkdsk seems like it could have potential....

uuuggghhh if good video games didn't require windows to play properly i would have never touched windows in the 90's, i feel your pain!

until my work laptop became mine, i had a dell 5300 core2duo with 4gb ddr2 with bt5. it still runs great (also had an athros 1699bgn chip in it which i LOVED) i still use it because it works quite well. i just got lucky gaining the HP from work for no charge

im always curious as to what tools people are using to get there work done, sometimes i can get inspired as to what would make my job a little easier. i was curious as to what rigs you guys are using to get your hacking done? and what made you choose that system? weather it be price, or power, or just what you had lying around? let me know! my current hack-top is a HP Elitebook 8540w with 16gb ram. it has the intel ultimate n 6300 wifi card inside (i have an external alfa because i have not tried packet injection with the intel). it has a i7 2770k 2.7gHz quad-core and a nVidia discrete graphics card. im dual booting backtrack5r3 and windows 7(games) on a 250g SSD. this was my work laptop, but now it has become my personal laptop.

so a powered hub would solve the solution of that, but could possably back-feed into my fruity baby, thus making it a very pretty paper-weight? hmm..... is there a way to safely have a small hub (2 ports is all i REALLY need) so i can have a second wifi anttena (alfa) and my USB storage? any recomendations then? i have a computer store in town that carries almost anything if i look hard enough...

the chipset on that is a Premiertek PT-H10DN-1W, never used this card; dont know what it its capable of....

so when im using my pineapple with my alfa is that not using the same princaple? all i want is to use a USB for storage+my alfa for passthrough

yours is a powered hub - im speaking of a unpowered hub, so i use less battery.

if your wanting a purely hacker friendly phone - i have had massive success with any Nexus device (Nexus s4g if you looking for a cheap phone, or the Nexus 4g LTE if you want the latest) they are google flagship devices, like the nexus 7 tablet, and always have the latest andriod version (my other nexus s4g has jellybean) and they are totally open source so rooting/modding can be done with ease. other good candidates are: Samsung S3 - fast phone; ugly UI HTC oneX (att) - harder to root properly, but fast Droid Razr MAXX - AWESOME BATTERY!!! also a great rooted phone, once you get it there (boot loader likes to reset itself alot) Galexy Note - have not personally tested this phone; but it sits on basically same hardware as the S3, so i assume it will have the same results

this is the hub i use http://www.microcenter.com/product/360458/4-Port_USB_20_Hub

would the hub from the hakshop be a better solution for an un-powered hub? i have a simular 4-port version of this hub that OP has, and i dont want to cut the power wire because i also use this hub for my tablet, but if the one at the hak-shop will work without modification, i have a local shop that sells them, and i dont mind picking one up

i have this same issue - and i just plug in my alpha after boot, because my scripts call specifically to interfaces, and i cannot have them switching.i honestly didnt think it was a bug, just one antenna booting before another and being assigned.

i have same problem as loozr

i have a PXE system at work, any system booted off PXE runs a DSL (damn small linux) taht inventories the system including system tag, hardware, and installed OS for auditing purpose. i can then review the database and if it is still conencted to the PXE enviroment i can push an install image to the system so everything is uniform across my network; this setup is limited to the receving line for PCs in the back, all systyems are unboxed, and then connected to the line, the PXE boot takes care of the rest. its awesome because the people on the line dont need to be techinically trained people (daves money) and i can have a solid inventory to audit agenst.

i understand bridging the connections, but as i stated, connecting the antenna alone has been a problem, as iwconfig is not a cmd subset within the pineapple. i can pass the connection through easily if i can get my alfa to connect to an existing access point first. i thought there was an existing limitation that i was unaware of....

so, this might be off topic, and im sorry for bumping an old post, but can i connect an alfa to my mk4 (2.6.0) and set up internet pass-through through the 2 antenna's? ie iwconfig wlan1 essid "NETWRORK_ID" key "NETWORK_KEY" ifconfig wlan1 up and have karma running on the onboard wifi antenna? this way i can have it passing internet without me being connected, thus allowing it to sit remotely for a bit, and i dont want to have to purchase a 3g because i cannot justify the cost/bill-per-month to the boss (read:wife)

i dont get it, linux is not a pain! its clearly logical!

being a long time Linux user, my first was Mandrake ( now Mandirvia-Linux ) wich i quickly switched to Fedora. i ran that and Debian for a long time until Ubuntu became a mainstream in the mid 00's. i have sense stuck with Ubuntu as it has never really done anything i truly hate. im currently running 12.04 (removed unity, installed Cinnamon) and i do not have the GPU issues you speak of. i know unity is not a perfect UI, but it is still young compared to Gnome or KDE. with the update to Gnome(3) i just lost a taste for it (though i recently started expierementing with it, and its growing on me slowly) so i went with the mint flavor without the simplicity. and im very happy with it. the update to Unity coming soon should bring me back to unity for a bit to test it out, and we shall see if i stay.

Daren you segment a month ago about WiFi protocols and hacking you did at that hacker space was inspiring, and i presented it to some colleges of mine. we are now using some thoughts and theories along with my pineapple to test some vulnerabilities in some networks.

as stated i am using USB for all my modules, Thank You for your response, and that eases some of my worries that i had done something wrong. great work by the way

ok, i totally wrote the Pi off because i didnt see it as useful. now, i have been shown the way. now to find a purpose with the reason so i can justify the purchase....
