UNIX hacking... Mark Unseen   Jul 6 06:41 UTC 1995

I would like to run an IRC client in my UNIX shell account, but my sysadmin
has rigged it up so I can't run anything that he did not have installed
or given me permission to run (I can't do finger). Any way to get around
this? I am dialing up a machine running under DEC OSF/1 V.3.2A, Rev. 17.
I would like to run ircII, and can get the files easily. Thank you!

  Unless you want to hack your way into the sysadmin access yer kinda 
in a bind. A cheesy way to do it would be to rig up a local mailing
list and have people use macros. Just send mail to the program (maybe running
on one users system and automatically sending mail to all on the list)
Wanna send a message, use a macro to go into mail and send to the account
name that is mailing to everyone on the "channel".
 I don't think it would fly though,  IRC style chats are made to be zero
in content. This sort of system leave people with like 10-12 seconds to
think before they type. Or more if the mailing list extends off system.

Andre aka Bobo, first if you are unable to use the mail system on this server,
it may be near impossible to teach you anything.  Its good that you took upon
learning unix this way.  But first you need to touch base with yourself.  What
do you wanna do as a "Hacker"  Since the term is universal know one can
actully help you till they know what you want to do.  if you wanna hack things
like the pentagon....I would suggest a NON-Public server.  If you wanna learn
how to do basic UNIX things, this is a good start.  Don't come out and say
"I wanna learn how to hack...teach me" thats probably why know one will teach
you.  Instead ask things like "How do I use the mail system on GREX" in which
someone would reply "At the prompt (grex.cyberspace.org%) type PINE, or if
you wanna challenege yourself just type mail." After that, ask more
questions...like how do I finger someone, or what is the port number for WWW
content, or what is SYN flooding.  Also, I would suggest reading lots of books
on hacker ethivs and history before learning how to do what is refered to as
"Hacking" If you know what hackers were in the old days when MIT was a coder
haven and the tech Model Train Railroad Club was around and learn about the
first things to really occur, people like us would be happy to indulkge you.
By showing a knowledge of Ethics and History, you show a matureness and a lot
of "Hackers" will be nice about sharing information to a mature guy.  I dunno
if the people on this board agree, but then Opinons our Opinions not facts.

Hey can anyone help me...i'm a newbie...i really bite at anything 
involving the process of hacking. I can program in C++ and pascal(whic 
isn't really helpful) and I spent all this time learning..and reading 
all this material on the subject, but have no idea where to start, or 
what to do with all the information i've learned. I'm kind of in a bind, 
my mind is filled now with useless information that I may never 
use..HELP!!! save me from hell

Sounds like you need to focus and then figure out what you want to do.
Here in the information age help is available on almost any subject
if you know the right questions to ask.

For learning how internet systems work the a good first step is
to setup a Linux box at home.

Also see #5 above.  Unix/Linux is a steep learning curve not for those
with short attention spans or the faint at heart.

If you really truely want to learn then listen to what mook said.  And  dont
just jump into and try and hack the pentagon or something start small learn
your home/office system first, then learn how to hack a remote system.  You
need to go out and find some web sites that have text files on hacking and
just absorb knowladge, knowladge is power. learn tcp/ip,linx,unix, learn what
makes the internet work, learn what makes computers work. learn everything
you possably can about computers and how they work. and i'll even help you
out a little here's a web site that has lots of links and has a chat so you
can get some help, so here's the url:
http://home.soneraplaza.nl/mw/privite/kosavo/usp/index.htm 
i hope this is of some help to you. happy hacking.

When I first started hacking i started reading everything i oculd find about
hacking. Then after i learned some basics I started hacking my Windows 95 box.
After about 4 days lol I mastered Windows and installed Linux on my box. Linux
is a very cool operating system. Its alot more secure and more of a challenge
to hack. Now I am a fairly good hacker. Do not think i am bragging because
I am not there are hundreds of people out there that are a million times
better than me. But I can safely say I know my way around a unix box.

I think it's a pretty good idea in general to add './' to your path, because
it gets annoying typing that before running programs.  Also if you are trully
interested in setting up a *nix box may I suggest that you go to
www.linuxcentral.com you can get almost any distro of linux or FreeBSD there
for under $5.00.  I personally I have tried Slackware, RedHat, Mandrake, SUSE,
and debian, and I think the best for a newby is Mandrake, (the install is
easier than windows, and it comes with the most tools), and for a more
experienced user I would try slakware, it is highly configurable, and has a
kernel that is set up for hacking/fine tunning.
        If you are very serious about learning to hack I would also suggest
brushing up on your network (BSD socket programming) in either Perl or C.

On the other hand, I keep "." out of my PATH, as I like to be sure I'm running
what I want to run. Typing ./<whatever> isn't that big of a deal - I suppose
it just depends on what you're used to. 
FreeBSD? Surely we all use OpenBSD. ;)

I am currently running Linux Mandrake 7.2 Ody. And am considering switching
to Linux Slackware 7.0 is this a good choice? I got a stupid question does
Slackware 7.0 run KDE or Gnome?

I have just started to experiment in the world of hacking. I have a good
handle on hardware and some things about code and how the internet works, but
i must agree with raven that new "hackers" like me must first figure out what
we want to do with this hacking. I mean i have come in here to ask for help
and have sat in the hacker channel of mirc for days getting help, they have
told me many things like get a *nix box, learn telnet, netbios, and much more.
So the quest has began with me writing in here now. I ask that anyone
iterested in chatting, helping, or asking email me at jep_xxx@yahoo.com. May
we some day have a say in what happens in this internet world we love
