I am also participating with the founder of Infonomicon Media to do a live cd based on slax for the purpose of making podcast radio shows.  It's called Podcast Fertilizer and it is based at www.podcastincubator.com/slax if you want to find out more about it.  The alpha .ISO should be out by the end of this week. **Edited** Per the request of the SonicWALL manufacturers I have removed the link to the manuals in my possession.  I am supposed to point you to the following website for the manuals.  http://www.sonicwall.com/support/documentation.html . Still no word on NOTACON, but I am hoping I will hear something soon. That is all I have right now.  Make sure to go to www.twatech.org and download episode 32 on December 2nd...

We are a community radio project and the more help we get than the less work we all have to do.  The more hosts that are available means better content and faster updates.  If you are in any way interested in doing a show please...

So send me your papers, anything you got that is related to phones is welcome.  Please send all documents to me at kn1ghtl0rd@hotmail.com and format them in either ASCII text or .RTF files.  NO MS WORD .DOC FILES WILL BE ACCEPTED!  I will also be making up t-shirts and those that get published in the first issue will get one for FREE!!!!  Please submit your article as soon as possible so we can get the final product out in time.  Also do not send me anything that has been published before.

I appreciate any help anyone can give.  If you have any experiance with anything related to telephones, or running a website than your skills can be used.  Please contact me if you are interested.  I will be updating when I have some stuff put together.  Till then, peace.

If you don't get 2600 you should definatley go pick it up.  You can find it at any major book store like borders or barnes & noble.  Make sure to flip to page 24 and read Climbing the SonicWall by me Kn1ghtl0rd!  I am so excited.  I have only been getting 2600 for a year now and have only been trying to put my name out in the community for the same amount of time even though I have been hacking for years.  It is great to see that I picked the right time to emerge and that the information I have to share means something in the community. Keep checking back in for more updates regarding Notacon.  If you were wondering, the article I published is what I am basing my talk on so you will get the basic gist of what will be covered if you read it.  I would like to formally thank the 2600 crew for publishing my stuff and I would also like to thank all of you for coming here and...

If you have never heard of NOTACON and would like to know more information about it go to http://www.notacon.org .  You can find information on how to submit papers and how to register early for the con.  That is all I have for this week...so far.  Ohh, if you have never been to the Binrev forums you should definately go there.  There is a really good area for newbs and you can ask any questions you may have.  There is also tons of information from the top names in the community so...

First off I want to tell all the people that may not know a whole lot about computers yet and are ready my blog to educate themselves in the fine art of hacking about deleting files.  In microsoft windows, any version, when you send a document to the recycle bin and delete it, the file is still on your hard drive.  When you delete a file via the recycle bin what it does is essentially rename it to a blank name that the file system, FAT32 or NTFS, does not recognize because the filename does not exist.  The binary code that makes up that file however is shifted to the end of your unused portion of the hard drive.  Using a basic program like R-Undelete you can easily see what files were deleted and recover them, with a small investment of 24.95 USD.  Not...

Kn1ghtl0rd kn1ghtl0rd@hotmail.com   Sun, 05 Jun 2005 03:35:56 +0200 http://www.blogigo.co.uk/Kn1ghtl0rd/Sorry/4/ http://www.blogigo.co.uk/Kn1ghtl0rd/Sorry/4/ Hello Everyone. Well today I am going to talk a little about hacking with Google.  Now I am going to warn you that no actually hacking techniques are neccessary to do these things, only the knowledge of directory structures within a web server or file server.  The basis of this technique is to search for specific things that will give you a back door into a web server so you can look around.  Some of the information will not be useful, but other information can be used to help in social engineering, or plotting network structure inside a specific business, or even give the passwords and login scripts for administrative areas of various web sites.  Now, I did not read a book to find out this stuff so if you see that it is somewhat similiar to somthing else you have read, I apologize.  I got the idea while browsing the security focus website and they had a section where you could read a few pages from a book about google hacking.  I figured that I could try and...

Chat and encountered a very nasty little bastard that called himself xxphrackxx, which is obviously a lamer name because he couldn't come up with his own so he went with the very popular name of phrack which is, if you don't know, a hacker ezine that is widely distributed and can be found and www.phrack.org .  So anyway, I was just sitting in the room talking to this one guy about IP addresses and xxphrackxx comes in and starts shooting his mouth off saying I don't know anything and whatever... bunch of looser BS.  Anyway, I am not complaining to much because to let this guy bother me is pointless, instead I would like to share with those of you who will agree with me why this guy is obviously not a hacker. xxphrackxx may know a thing or two about computers but that does not make him a hacker.  It all actuallity you don't even need to know about computers to be a hacker, you just need to look at things a little differently. ...

I guess I should maybe tell you a little about myself.  I am a systems administrator and programmer for a medium sized manufacturing company in Ohio.  I have been working here for almost a year.  I don't really like it here because the technology is really antique, but if gives me the oportunity to play around with things that maybe I wouldn't have experienced otherwise.  I have a lot of downtime at work so I spend most of my time sitting around doing nothing, or reading misc files and books on networking, hacking, phreaking, social engineering, penetration test, password recovery, and just about anything else I can get my hands on.  I have been using computers for about 10 years and I have been hacking for about 8 of those 10.  I...
