Welcome to the premier issue of TCSB. TCSB will be featuring
|
||
|
||
articles about various topics of interest to those who enjoy
|
||
|
||
Telecommunications and computer security as a hobby or profession.
|
||
|
||
While some of the information contained in these documents may be
|
||
|
||
considered confidential telco information, we at TCSB are not
|
||
|
||
publishing this bulletin for the purpose of revealing trade secrets
|
||
|
||
or any other implications of industrial espionage, etc., but rather
|
||
|
||
a source of information that we hope you enjoy as much as we enjoy
|
||
|
||
bringing it to you.
|
||
|
||
Also, there is no set time for the release of upcoming issues.
|
||
|
||
The bulletin is only published if there is a reasonable ammount of
|
||
|
||
worthwhile information to be released.
|
||
|
||
Reader submissions are also welcome; good luck getting in touch.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Since we don't call many bulletin boards, we are depending on the
|
||
|
||
reader to distribute the journals.

There may be gold in that Silver Box
|

Doctor Cypher
|
||
|

|

|
||
Little has been documented about the use of the silver box.
|
||
|
||
Many assume a silver box is just a set of Autovon keys, or more
|
||
|
||
advanced readers may be familiar with its use in conjunction with
|
||
|
||
the standard Directory Assistance ACD (Automated Call distributor
|
||
|
||
which distributes the calls to the individual Directory Assistance
|
||
|
||
operators) but in reality there are several applications to the
|
||
|
||
hidden row than meets the eye.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
I will not explain the construction methods here, for they are
|
||
|
||
widely available on many Telecom-oriented Bulletin board systems,
|
||
|
||
but rather go into detail about using them.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
The ACD and DA operators: The ACD can be reached through calling
|
||
|
||
------------------------ a directory assistance operator and
|
||
|
||
holding down the D key (941+1633 htz) while the operator answers
|
||
|
||
her console, the tone will trip the circut and drop you into the
|
||
|
||
ACD. One way to verify that you have tripped the circut is a
|
||
|
||
Stutter-tone, or pulsing dialtone. From this prompt, you can dial
|
||
|
||
up to 10 possible functions:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
1 - Rings the Toll Text board - Useful if you dont have the
|
||
|
||
numbers on file.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
2 - Sometimes dead circut, other times milliwatt test.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
3 - Sometimes milliwatt, others 1000/1004 htz. tone.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
4 - Usually dead circut
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
5 - Always dead circut
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
6 - Low end of loop - If your friend calls the ACD on the same
|
||
|
||
op. as you do, and dials 7, you are connected.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
7 - High end of loop.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
8 - 600 ohm termination
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
9 - Usually dead circut
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
0 - Usually dead circut
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Notes: If you are having trouble with this method, try the 414
|
||
|
||
DA operator. It never fails, but the dialtons will sound more
|
||
|
||
like a busy signal than a dialtone.
|
||
|
||
No 'Codes'? Well, if your friend lives in the same state,
|
||
|
||
arrange to meet on the 800-555-1212 ACD (functions: 6,7.)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Autovon Tone Set: The silver box keys also appear on the standard
|
||
|
||
---------------- Autovon (the military phone network) keypad.
|
||
|
||
the functions are as follows:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
A - Flash
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
B - Flash Override (Priority)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
C - Priority Communication (dial)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
D - Priority Override (used to reach busy numbers in extreme
|
||
|
||
emergencies. When the tone is hit, I believe a flag is
|
||
|
||
set as an emergency condition, and only for top military)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
To use the autovon keys, scan for your local Milnet or Autovon port.
|
||
|
||
All numbers are 7 digits (for those of you who insist on trying this,
|
||
|
||
please take the proper security measures.)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Centegram hacking: Yes, your silver box can also be used for
|
||
|
||
----------------- hacking earlier versions of Centegram. While
|
||
|
||
hacking the system administrators box and entering an invalid
|
||
|
||
code, the system will attempt to log you off, but hit 'C' and
|
||
|
||
feast your ears on 'Welcome to the message center...' Another
|
||
|
||
use in Centegram hacking is when you are entering an auth. code,
|
||
|
||
it will recognize A, B, C, and D as valid digits for added
|
||
|
||
security.
|
||
|
||

||

||
(Speciall thanks goes out to Phiber Optik for the help with ACD
|
||
|
||
and Felix the Hack for the Centegram information)
