Well, basically you want to find a vulnerability in the machine that you can exploit, have a look on www.securityfocus.com,www.packetstormsecurity.org,www.zone-h.org,www.k-oitk.com for exploits. On Sun, 17 Oct 2004 14:35:52 -0500, Jason Dusek <jason-dusek () uiowa edu> wrote:
Well, I do own it. It would be dumb for me to ask for an intro to hacking and then make my first attempt on someone else's machine - I'd more than likely get caught. As far as googling, google what? Even some nice keywords would help. _jason Andrew Smith wrote:Read, Google. Security updates, exploits, etc. I doubt you will get any specific advice here, your post sounds very much to me like you're trying to crack a server you don't actually own. Good Luck, Have Fun.

Are there any tutorials or a good introductory book that takes one step by step through the process of 'owning' an unsecured box?
