Duelus Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Just keep the problem to yourself, don't use it. In my experience, if you tell them you will get screwed over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freakish Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 But the thing about that is that I have some files that I put on the C: drive. I know that they haven't found out about me doing this because I also found some security warning thing, and I'm not on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonysathre Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 If you were able to install applications on these systems, they obviously are not good admins. Setting up permissions and implementing Group Policy with Active Directory isn't that hard to do. If you were able to install something on the HDD, then just think of the havoc that could be wreaked by someone with more knowledge. When I was in high school, the admin wasn't very smart either, but she was smart enough to explicitly deny write access to all workstations C: drives through NTFS permissions. To get around this, I simply installed programs to my Home Directory, until I eventually filled my quota, of course. The best part about this was that I could use my programs on any computer on the network, and I didn't have to worry about getting in trouble. I would say tell the admins in an anonymous email.

barrytone Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I would say tell the admins in an anonymous email. Thats what ive told him i think 3-4 times.... He still thinks that he is going to get caught. As a school admin, If I got an anonymous e-mail telling me about a vulnerability on one of my networks, I would be thankful and not try to trace who sent the e-mail. Provided the e-mail was polite, of course. If I did know who who sent the e-mail, I would only approach them to say thank you and ask them if they new of any other vulnerabilities. Sometimes it can take the mind of a kid to get past security. Without much prior knowledge, they'll sometimes try things that those with superior knowlede would not.

Freakish Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 You do not know how strick my school is... they are instaling video camras over the summer. If you were a admin at my school I'm sure you would be fine with it but my admins are horrible. They have even started put the program Netsupport on our computers.
