Some other avenues might be (after a port scan) -SNMP -guessing strings (password reuse) -SMTP -vulnerabilities - VRFY (user name guessing) - Alternate route to bruteforce accounts -SSH - as mentioned above (be careful of account lockout) Also just from experience the BIOS access keys I have seen are F1, F2, F12, Esc, and Del --Justin On 2/9/12, Carlos Pantelides <carlos_pantelides () yahoo com> wrote:
Have you access to any other account? Is there any network service running?
