This is a security site. If you want to talk about cracking then you should join a board where that type of stuff is welcome. And besides.... this "EXPLOIT" doesn't involve much thinking.

This is the truth, take to heart what is being told to you here. Out of kindness and the attempt to educate people, no one has negged you for this post so far.

I might recommend reading The Ultimate Newbie FAQ for some good do's and don'ts. It will make your experience at AO better and more enjoyable.

Ok buddy, accepted that I posted it by mistake...but don't you think you are forgetting something....the spirit of AO,
HACKERS KNOW THE WEAKNESS IN YOUR SYSTEM.SHOULDN'T YOU?

I only posted it with a hope that someone may also post on how to avoid it working......

What is it with people and taking this "hackers know the weaknesses in your system. Shouldnt you?" out of context

is it not just a rhetorical question !

and please people read the NEWBIE FAQ and stop asking these types of question ! there are ways of reaching the result by phrasing your questions in the correct manner !

Ok he screwed up but this is so well known I hardly think it did any harm. I have nothing against people posting about exploits but I would like to suggest a few tips.

1. Write your own stuff. NO CUT AND PASTE.
2. Write from the perspective of preventing this kind of exploit. If there’s no fix don't spread the word.
3. Since you writing from a preventative perspective don't include details about how the exploit works unless it’s necessary.

lol ok ok before we start flaming at the person.. lets consider some stuff ok..

ok first.. i did write a smiliar tutorial for this topic..

second... i tried it and as far as u can get, all you get are local passwords and logins.

third... only a half-wit administrator would use the local login and password as his official login and password.

so u do get login and passwords but it is highly unlikely u will get to take over the network.
improbable? yes.. impossible? no.

anyway, u would have to boot from floppy to get hold of the SAM file.. which would take about 5-10 minutes (depending on the box) coz NT uses 3 floppies as a boot disk.

that 5-10 minutes would buy the administrator enough time to find out whats goin on.

OK soninc i get your point but you could boot to a dos disk and use ntfsdos to get the sam file ! you dont have to use the nt boot floppies !

lol u do have a point there geepod and u are right, but same thing happens, all u get are local logins and passwords and it will still give the admin a good 5-10 mins to find out whats goin on, (considering the box just "mysteriously" droped out from the network for more than 5 mins).
