Hackers, Swordfish I don't get it!!

okay, I know you need a password/user name in order to get into computers.. But how to do you get to that point where you need to enter them? Like, do you just telnet (or use some Unix command) to get onto the computers server or........?

And what's so good about open ports..? Do you just port scan an IP addy and connect to those ports thru telnet or something and get access to the computer? Or... Do you port scan an ip address.. find the open ports, find the program that opens those ports.. And then find a vulerablity in that program.. and... AHH! I don't get it!

What I have going on right now is 2 computers.. My Main Computer (with a firewall etc) and my "Test Computer" that has No firewall, nothing. So, I got my Ip address from my computer beside me, my TC (Test computer), and I port scanned it with my MC ( Main computer ). I have a few ports open right now.. but then what do I do? Should I go into Telnet and try to connect to those ports?

:( I just don't get it at all.. If anyone could help this newbie out, I'd be very greatful :)

P.s, I'm using Windows Xp on both comps. Thanks!

Seems like you answered all your questions within your post. You definetly have the right idea. I am not going to address your question because you basically answered it. I will tell you how to prevent what you are talking about. You basically want to have as few ports open as possible, and to achieve this you have to figure out what app is opening the port then decide if you need that application running or not. If not, you kill the app, which closes the port. You also want to get a firewall just to be sure that what is getting through is only what you want to get through. For the apps opening ports that you need to have running, you want to go to the their website and be sure there are no patches or updates. netstat -a displays all connections and listening ports in XP. Just be safe.

edit
forgot to post a link: http://www.antionline.com/showthread...ghlight=telnet
this should help you with some questions about telnet. Also, if it is your computer and there are ports open that you don't know how to connect to, that is not a good sign. I think that link provides a pretty good overview of what to do with a lot of ports. But you got it when you said this:

You basically would just search for a vulnerablility and either write or find code that exploits it. And if this is possible on your computer, then you need to either switch software if there are no patches or upgrades, or patch it if there are.

So.. What your saying is all I have to do is open telnet.. Type in the ip address, type in the open port number.. and then I'll have access to the computer? or.. :-/

Thanks for the quick reply h3r3tic :-)

Apollovega, in most scenerios, no. You cant just telnet to any port, the telnet port itself is 23. If you telnet to a box it will most likely ask you for a password and maybe a username unless theres really nothing to telnet to.

Edit: Forgot to say, you can telnet to some protocols such as the HTTP protocol (port 80), or any other services you might want to access on any other port.

Port 25 is an important port to telnet to in some cases. It runs sendmail. You can find any number of tutorials on sendmail out there. It is kind of a fun service to play with as a newbie...


edit: since you had Swordfish in the subject, don't believe anything you saw in that movie. It was the most unrealistic thing I ever watched. Funny movie though.

yea, I finally connected to port 25.. Cept the second I typed even one letter it said connection lost.. Dunno why thou..



Edit: Yea I thought it was pretty corny as well.. I was just trying to think of all the movies with Hacking involved :-)

Try this
telnet 64.253.207.29 25
helo localhost
then follow the stuff in that link I posted. It should deny you to send an email. The only one that has worked for me is the one from my isp which I use for email. Just fool around with it. Telnet to all the open ports and see what happens, you learn by experience.

edit
oops, im an idiot, I had this telnet 64.253.207.29 localhost
it was a really bad typo, I changed it so now it's
telnet 64.253.207.29 25
That should work for you.

You ever watch "Sneakers"???

It's not purely hacking, but it's a hacker classic.

Sneaker?? Now thats one I haven't heard of! I guess I have something to put on my x-mas list :P hehe... Has anyone seen a movie called "Master Minds" Its got some hacking in it... its mostly GUI hacks... And the movie is heavily action oriented, and it's main character is some 17 year old boy who is a James Bond wanna be, but he can hack... All in all, its a pretty decent movie... Worth a rental anyway :D

Ahhhh.. Swordfish. Good Soundtrack, bad movie. No one can break through 128 bit encryption while getting their dick sucked in under 60 seconds. (I dont know of any guys who can even think while getting thier dick sucked) ;)

LoL! I disagree with you, us guys do think as we get our unit sucked.. We think how we're getting lucky and that's pretty much it :-) lol..


Anyways, I tried to telnet to that but it didn't let me connect.. Also does anyone know why the second it says "Press any key to continue.." and I press a key, it says connection lost? :-/ Confusing telnet is..

That usually happens to me when I telnet to port 80 or something. I will type something and it says press any key to continue, and then it says connection to host lost. I think you had already lost your connection when it first said press any key to continue. It doesn't mean that you will be able to continue, I think it only does that in microsofts telnet though. I have fixed the thing I posted earlier. I guess I wasn't paying attention when I typed it. You should be able to connect to it now.

Wow that's sooo cool :D
I'm going to try a different Telnet program.. I might have better luck :-)

Thanks for your help h3r3tic, appreciate it muchly.

Are you even running a SMTP server on your "TC"? The results you are posting sound to me like you have either no listening service on the other end or the telnet client you are using is not capable of communicating with the actual service.

I dont think anyone in here is going to tell you how to hack or use script kiddie tactics to exploit services.

pak is on the right track there...
in order to make a successful connection to a port, there needs to be a service waiting for connections on that port, some examples of services are; ftp, http, smtp, pop, telnet, ssh etc..

i could list hundreds of services but those are a few examples, if there is no service listening on the port you can't make a connection, then again XP may by default close connections on certain incoming ports, considering a standard xp box doesnt really run many server type services such as http, ftp, telnet and such...

im not sure how exactly you would go about setting up some services to listen on ports and stuff on xp, you might want to investigate a linux or unix box and mess around on that, also don't go downloading programs to do this for you, i started off like this and got bored very quickly, i've learnt heaps more by using linux and listening to the guys and gals here

you might find some free software or shareware on tucows or some other download site that will allow you to run some server services on an xp box for you to fiddle around with....

hope this is of some help to you

What?! You mean you can't do this?! Child's play, sheesh.......... :D

You need to install some programs on your test computer that will
listen on the port you want to connect to. Try finding a free telnet
server program, if your operating system doesn't include one.

There are free server programs for FTP, HTTP, mail etc.
Once there is a program listening, you can go to the other
machine and TELNET <ADDRESS> <PORT> and see if the
services function properly, and if they are vulnerable
to being exploited ie. getting in without password, etc.
:cool:

What do you mean... Just go up to a cute hacker chick and say... I bet you I can break through a 128 bit encryption in 60 seconds while you rock my tip..

You still win, even if you can't :)

Netcat is your solution, apollovega:
http://www.atstake.com/research/tool...ork_utilities/

At command prompt cd into the right directory and:

nc -L -vv -p 80 <-- 80 should be replaced by the port you want it to listen on ofcourse

You can also bind a program to it.
i.e.

nc -L -vv -p 80 -e command.com

If you now connect to yourself (127.0.0.1 or localhost if you don't know that) you'll be using MS-DOS via netcat server :)

[edit]
I suppose you use windows...

Ya halle berry suckin a dick with boops showing is 2 much to resist while hacking even 4 mr. anderson

lol that was crazy talk he is crackin the password while his dink is sucked off and plus hi has 60 sec and also gun is pointed into his head ? kinda to much stress to do something like that no mather how good you are right ;) :D

He blew his load in under 60 seconds, he deserved to get shot with that empty gun.

Man guys, being so busy and all i logged on here for the first time in a few months and ****-who woulda thought a main thread would be about dick suckin' and sex. I'm proud of you horny's, in the way you tried to disguise your sex chatter. Psh?! Don't think we don't know!

P.S. BTW, how the hell did he do that in under 60 secs. Pure skill, pure skill. ;)

I like the movie "Wargames" myself.

Completely nonsensical, but the words "Global Thermal Nuclear War" have a ring to them. Come on..what bloke is stupid enough to hack into NORAD?

>.>;; Is it true its no longer called NORAD?

apollovega I would advice you to learn how TCP/IP works and basic networking functions, also whilst your at it learn all about the differnt protocols are used for these basic services such as telnet , smtp, ftp. Once you have covered TCP/IP networking and protocols you will feel alot more comphy with the basics etc.




Also try your hand at linux www.linux.org www.linuxiso.org

sorry Info Tech Geek if i offended someone didnt mean to but others were swearing so yea but ok am sorry folks :confused:

|The|Specialist says: Uhhh opps. Sorry im late. Then |The|Specialist grabs his gun and gives out clips of ammo so other peaple can join in on the bloody fun.

When I see peaple playing with telnet in the hopes that one day they can call themselves (hacker) without being laughed at... I suddenly ask myself: if everyone thinks these movies are so corney & lame then why do so many idiots such as the guy who started this thread attempt to model themselves after the lame asses in the movies? As if that'll make you any cooler LMAO.

hmmm...How much memory would u need to break a 128-bit encryption under 60 seconds? ok, lets say 2 seconds for the program to open, 1 second for each command he's running, lets say he got to open a few more programs...so lets give him about 40 seconds to break a 128-bit encryption. Haven't seen the movie yet but i'm about to just for halle berry. I'm guessing over 100Gigs of RAM to break something like that in that little time. Personally I cant really think much when "not gonna repeat it". I heard my buddy can do derivatives on his head during the whole thing. I actually hire him a chick and give him my calc homework to do :)

Thanks guys,
I havn't laught this much since my daughter asked me what that lady was doing. I told her she had dropped a pencil
