On the topic of RAQ's, I thought I would throw this one out.

On older RAQ installs (maybe new ones too, havent checked), you can access a
couple items in the administration interface without logging in:

Current system load: /cgi-bin/.cobalt/cpuUsage/loadavg.cgi
Legato Backup Server: /cgi-bin/.cobalt/networker/networker.cgi
Telnet Usage: /cgi-bin/.cobalt/telnetUsage/telnetUsage.cgi


The fun one here is the Legato Backup Server, you can go download the
evaluation version of Legato for Linux, change the server to your IP address,
and have the system backup its data to your machine ;)

Well, a nice one to look out for on Cobalt RaQ's (which run a modified
version of Redhat 6) is port 81 - the web administrator port, which runs
Apache.  Oh, and apache is running as root so the CGI scripts run
properly.  This is, of course, extremely dumb, and has been covered
indepth on bugtraq.
