CALL

PIRATE'S HIDEOUT (617-863-1237) IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, OR E-MAIL ME ON
|
||
TIMECOR.
|
||
|
||
|
||
IN THIS TUTORIAL, I HOPE TO TEACH YOU A LITTLE ABOUT THE NET-WORKS PROGRAM,
|
||
AND HOW TO DESTROY ANY NW BOARD YOU MIGHT HAPPEN TO HATE.
|
||
|
||
NICK NAIMO (THE AUTHOR OF NW) LEFT QUITE A FEW BUGS IN HIS PROGRAM, MAYBE ON
|
||
PURPOSE... WHO KNOWS? HERE ARE A FEW OF THEM.

HOW TO MILDLY ANNOY THE SYSOP
|
||
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
|
||
TYPE 'G' AT THE MAIN MENU PROMPT. WHEN IT ASKS YOU FOR A NUMBER, ENTER A
|
||
VALID NUMBER PLUS A DECIMAL... FOR INSTANCE, 3.5. THIS WILL CREATE A ONE
|
||
SECTOR FILE CALLED "J.3.5.SYS" WHICH WILL NEVER BE ERASED UNLESS THE SYSOP
|
||
HIMSELF CATALOGS THE DISK AND DELETES THEM ALL BY HAND.
|
||

|
||
HOW TO DESTROY (ALMOST) ANY SYSTEM FILE
|
||
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
|
||
TO DESTROY ALMOST ANY SYSTEM FILE, THERE MUST BE A BOARD SHARING DRIVE 1,
|
||
WHERE MOST OF THE SYSTEM FILES ARE KEPT. POST A MESSAGE CALLED
|
||
|
||
USERS.SYS
|
||
TITLES OR TITLES1 OR TITLES.1
|
||
MENU.SYS
|
||
|
||
WITH A SPACE IN FRONT OF IT... FOR INSTANCE, TO DESTROY THE PASSWORD FILE,
|
||
POST A MESSAGE CALLED " USERS.SYS", THE SPACE IN THE FRONT IS LOST WHEN THE
|
||
FILE IS RE-READ, SO GO TO ANOTHER BOARD, AND THEN BACK TO THE BOARD YOU POSTED
|
||
ON. THEN, REMOVE THE MESAGE YOU JUST POSTED... IT WILL DELETE THE "USERS.SYS"
|
||
AND LEAVE " USERS.SYS" ALONE.... PRETTY COOL, EH?
|
||
|

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
HOW TO GET INTO THE MONITOR
|
||
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
|
||
THIS IS THE BEST CRASH THERE IS, I THINK... IF THE BOARD YOU ARE CRASHING
|
||
HAS NOT BEEN PROTECTED FROM IT, IT WILL ALWAYS A) HANG TOTALLY OR B) GO INTO
|
||
THE MONITOR. WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS THIS: TYPE 'E' AT THE MAIN MENU PROMPT,
|
||
AND THEN WHEN IT ASKS YOU FOR A NAME, ENTER GARBAGE.... OR A REAL NAME, IT
|
||
REALLY DOESN'T MATTER. WHEN IT SAYS "50 LINES MAX., TO END TYPE --> /EX <--"
|
||
YOU DO THIS:
|
||
|
||
A) HIT <RETURN> ONCE.
|
||
B) TYPE /EX
|
||
C) TYPE 'F' AT THE CHOICES.
|
||
D) ENTER "99E99" FOR THE LINE NUMBER TO FIX.
|
||
E) GOTO STEP A WHEN IT SAYS 50 LINES... AGAIN.
|
||
|
||
AFTER ABOUT 6-10 TIMES OF THIS, YOU WILL HEAR A BEEP AS IT GOES INTO THE
|
||
MONITOR.... IF CONTROL-C WORKS, THEN YOU'RE INTO BASIC! IF IT DOESN'T, THEN
|
||
YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE SYSOP TO COME ALONG AND HIT RESET AND RE-RUN
|
||
HIS BOARD.
|
||
|

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
WHAT TO DO IF YOU GET INTO BASIC
|
||
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
|
||
IF YOU GET INTO BASIC, THEN CHECK TO SEE IF THE SYSOP HAS HIS PROGRAM SAVED
|
||
ON HIS DISK. IF HE DOES, THEN MAKE A FEW 'BACKDOORS' SO YOU CAN GET INTO BASIC
|
||
ANYTIME YOU WANT TO, AND THEN SAVE IT ONTO HIS DISK... THEN TYPE RUN. YOU'LL
|
||
LOSE CARRIER, AND HE'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT HIT HIM WHEN SUDDENLY HIS PASSWORD FILE
|
||
GETS DELETED EVERY NIGHT!

SYSOP ACCESS
|
||
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
|
||
|
||
ANOTHER USEFUL THING TO KNOW IS IF YOU ENTER A SYSOP PASSWORD, EVEN IF IT'S
|
||
WRONG, YOU CAN GET VERY HIGH ACCESS. FOR INSTANCE LET'S SAY YOU LOG ON AND SEE
|
||
THE NORMAL LOG ON...
|
||
|
||
CONNECTED TO: JOE'S BBS
|
||
|
||
ENTER ACCOUNT NUMBER OR THE WORD 'NEW'.
|
||
|
||
--->
|
||
|
||
AT THAT POINT, YOU SHOULD ENTER SOME- THING LIKE: E1EL (THAT IS A COMMON
|
||
SYSOP PASSWORD). WHEN IT SAYS "INVALID PASSWORD" YOU SHOULD TYPE THE WORD
|
||
"NEW". ENTER WHATEVER YOU WANT FOR THE NAME, AND WHEN IT ASKS YOU FOR A PHONE,
|
||
JUST HIT <RETURN>... IT WON'T ASSAIGN A PASS- WORD, BUT WHO CARES. WHEN YOU
|
||
GET INTO THE BBS, TYPE "Y". YOU SHOULD EITHER HAVE A LEVEL OF 9 OR SPECIAL
|
||
DOWNLOAD ACCESS (ON T-I-M-E-C-O-R YOU GET SPECIAL DOWNLOAD ACCESS). THE ONLY
|
||
PROBLEM IS THAT YOU ARE NOT VALIDATED... IF THE SYSOP IS STUPID ENOUGH, HE MAY
|
||
VALIDATE YOU IF YOU CHAT SO YOU CAN JUST "LOOK AROUND". THE MAIN USE FOR THIS
|
||
IDEA IS TO LOOK AT A HIGH LEVEL "G" SECTION YOU DON'T NEED TO BE VALIDATED TO
|
||
LOOK AT.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: ON BOARDS REQUIRING ACCOUNT NUMBERS, YOU SHOULD ENTER 1 AS THE ACCOUNT
|
||
NUMBER.

|
||
P.S. BE CAREFUL HOW YOU DISTRIBUTE THIS, IF EVERYONE IN THE COUNTRY GETS
|
||
HOLD OF IT, EVERY BOARD WILL BE PROTECTED AND THIS TUTORIAL WILL BE
|
||
USELESS... KEEP THAT IN MIND, AND HAVE PHUN!!!
