net bios hacking

[skiddieleet]

Has anyone ever printed out to the remote computers printer that they need to put up a firewall?
That would be funny to print something on their computer. Is this illegal to do? It seems like it would be.
One more question, can you run programs from the remote comps program files directory or will they not work because you have to have the dll's and stuff locally?
Thanks for the tut.

No you couldn`t directly run programs on their computer because netbios is a file sharing protocol. Not taking into account trojans and the like the only proper ways to run programs on other computers is through telnet and terminal services.
I`m guessing you could print on their computer but they would have to have it set up for file and print sharing.
And yes it would be illegal, it dosn`t matter what your doing, if your accessing some one else`s computer that you do not have permisson for your brakeing the law

yeah great post but I don't suppose this applies to me as I have changed over to LINUX and obviously for good reason

P.S. how much would a firewall help prevent this

[skiddieleet]

if the firewall blocked port 139(which it should by default) then it will help a great deal because basically access to that port is only allowed locally, and most firewalls have a trusted zone to put comps on your network into so you can allow them to access that port while not allowing remote machines.

[Scriptersx]

Firewalls usualy block all ports but if your running on a network, the admin mite be set up to allow connections to that port(s)

Your firewall can help quite a bit in solving many of the problems. You do however need to learn to properly configure it to allow you access to everything you need while blocking access to everyone else when attempting to connect to your box.
