Cheers guys I will check into that method

Has it even been done before in php/mysql qith a backened pure php socket?

Can you elaborate Googling that gives me info about pop3

I have made a rather nice livechat application in php/mysql/ajax I have integrated it onto my website inside members profiles. If they are online the image appears where other members can click to send a livechat request That dumps a row in a mysql database. Ever 2 minutes, on the other persons homepage, ajax checks the database for requests. If it finds one, it starts the livechat between the two people. Great! Well, I want to go one better. If its livechat, having a 2 minute delay between requests is a real pain. I know web technology hasn't quite caught up with that yet so are limited, but Im wonderin what the best way to go about it is I have heard something about 'Server Push' or 'PHP Sockets' Basically, with msn, when a message is sent it literally is sent straight from them to you. The other persons msn client doesnt query a central server for messages every second. I know its not web language, but is this acheivable using any web languages. If not, what would you guys suggest Sure I could make the AJAX refresh every 30 seconds rather than 2 minutes, but sometimes there are 1000 people online. I dont want to blow my server up! Cheers !

The last part... you said they have full rights to the video They obviously dont if its Eminems latest music video.. Could youtube get in trouble for that?

I need some information on the following What are the laws on servers containing copywrited content.. For instance, if you guys here at hack5 where to upload an Eminem song and have a link to it publically, is that breaking the law? If it is, what are the ways around it. There are all kinds of disclaimers floating about which have loop holes in them such as "If you are from any government society blah blah blah you are not authorised to access content on this server" Then hey presto, there breaking the law if they go anywhere near your server whether its looking for copywrighted content or not etc Obviously not as simple as that, but you get my jist I need everything I can get on how to keep your self in the clear if you have music files or films on a website I mean look at the likes of youtube.. they have video clips and dont pay any loyalties, how can they do that? Please help, this isnt for educational purposes I have someone trying to play dirty. Regards!

Is QOS going to work on linux? Not quite sure how I would go about that?

Yeh I currently just embed, but if there is a packet or 2 lost in the connection the song just stops where as it flash it would buffer or something then continue

I cant convert, I have 6000 songs all indexed nicely in a database, conversion is out the question So need to stream via flash

I need to make a music player for my website to stream music Before I go anyfurther do any of you guys no if it is possible to stream .wma files with flash The last time I checked it wasnt supported due to microsoft not embedding something into the .wma coded or what have you Obviously can be done with mp3, but needs to be .wma Any one have any idea what Im talking about?

Thank you! Can you think of anyway to achieve the same sort targetting a Cisco router?

Ok I see now But you mentioned in the example of Hak.5 the router obviously has a switch built in.. great! However, although it has a poisonable switch the router is also designed to drop the broadcast packets So how are they still able to do this if the broadcast packets are being dropped before they can nest into the switches Arp table

My bad about the Hak :-? So just to conclude its the switch that deals with the Arp table?

I see, so basically a heavy cisco router is not going to have an exploitble switch built in?

Both, they did it on a wired and wireless LAN

Ahh I see, so the switch is the target So how in the hack5 example do they have it working on a router?

In the hack5 video they use an example where 192.168.1.1 is the acting firewall/router and attack 192.168.1.102 Also go into an internet cafe and do the same there Thats what I dont understand, so surely the router is vulnerable

Yeh I would have thought that, so just to clarify it is because the ISP heavy shit routers arnt suceptable to these kind of attacks where as the cheapy routers are

I recently watched one of the Hack5 videos which took us through using an Arp attack to fool the firewall/router into thinking my PC was another, thus capturing its network traffic Im trying this on my ISP's network, Im trying to test this on an IP thats on the same gateway as me Its not working, I dont appear to be recieving any packets from the remote PC Im on XP, using Cain & Able to poisin which Ive done exactly as demonstrated, then used ethereal to sniff the packets Im connected direct, no router using only XP's firewall Im just wondering if this isnt working because Im trying to fool a heavy shit Cisco router used by my ISP. Do they have extra security that defends its network from the Arp attack as apposed to your average joe netgear or belkin Feedback would be great ! Spook.
