How To Access Blocked Site Using Calculator

Author: ramees vk Labels::

Open Command prompt and type ping facebook.com You will see the IP address as shown below.

IP address of facebook.com = 69.171.224.11

Start your PC’s calculator, and change it to scientific mode for XP and Programmer mode for windows 7 (using the “View” menu)

Convert each of the 4 numbers (69, 171, 224 and 11) into an 8-digit binary value. In order to do this open your Windows calculator, select Scientific view.

Make sure ‘Dec’ is selected and enter the first number and select ‘Bin’. This would give you 8 digit binary value of 69 = 1000101.

Repeat the process of 3 Number as well. you will get Four 8-Digit binary Equivalent . Put them all together.

Notice how any binary number less than 8 digit long have had leading zeroes added to pad them out. reassembled into IP address order, you get 1000111.10101011.11100000.1011

Remove the Dots, so you get one huge line of Binary, thus 100011110101011111000001011

Convert 100010110101011111000001011 into a decimal value. Select Bin and input100010110101011111000001011 (copy-paste) and then Click on the “Dec” button on your calculator, and you will get the converted value of 73055755

Add the hypertext protocol prefix and paste into your browser’s address bar: http:// 73055755

Go to your browser and in the address bar type http://73055755, this should open http://facebook.com/

A beginners guide to Hacking UNIX

A beginners guide to Hacking UNIX

In the following file, all references made to the name Unix, may also be

substituted to the Xenix operating system.

Brief history: Back in the early sixties, during the development of third

generation computers at MIT, a group of programmers studying the potential of

computers, discovered their ability of performing two or more tasks

simultaneously. Bell Labs, taking notice of this discovery, provided funds for

their developmental scientists to investigate into this new frontier. After

about 2 years of developmental research, they produced an operating system they

called "Unix".

Sixties to Current: During this time Bell Systems installed the Unix system

to provide their computer operators with the ability to multitask so that they

could become more productive, and efficient. One of the systems they put on the

Unix system was called "Elmos". Through Elmos many tasks (i.e. billing,and

installation records) could be done by many people using the same mainframe.

Note: Cosmos is accessed through the Elmos system.

Current: Today, with the development of micro computers, such multitasking

can be achieved by a scaled down version of Unix (but just as powerful).

Microsoft,seeing this development, opted to develop their own Unix like system

for the IBM line of PC/XT's. Their result they called Xenix (pronounced

zee-nicks). Both Unix and Xenix can be easily installed on IBM PC's and offer

the same functions (just 2 different vendors).

Note: Due to the many different versions of Unix (Berkley Unix, Bell System

III, and System V the most popular) many commands following may/may not work. I

have written them in System V routines. Unix/Xenix operating systems will be

considered identical systems below.

How to tell if/if not you are on a Unix system: Unix systems are quite common

systems across the country. Their security appears as such:

Login; (or login;)

password:

When hacking on a Unix system it is best to use lowercase because the Unix

system commands are all done in lower- case.

Login; is a 1-8 character field. It is usually the name (i.e. joe or fred)

of the user, or initials (i.e. j.jones or f.wilson). Hints for login names can

be found trashing the location of the dial-up (use your CN/A to find where the

computer is).

Password: is a 1-8 character password assigned by the sysop or chosen by the

user.

Common default logins

--------------------------

login; Password:

root root,system,etc..

sys sys,system

daemon daemon

uucp uucp

tty tty

test test

unix unix

bin bin

adm adm

who who

learn learn

uuhost uuhost

nuucp nuucp

If you guess a login name and you are not asked for a password, and have

accessed to the system, then you have what is known as a non-gifted account. If

you guess a correct login and pass- word, then you have a user account. And,

if you guess the root password, then you have a "super-user" account. All Unix

systems have the following installed to their system: root, sys, bin, daemon,

uucp, adm

Once you are in the system, you will get a prompt. Common prompts are:

　

$

%

#

　

But can be just about anything the sysop or user wants it to be.

Things to do when you are in: Some of the commands that you may want to try

follow below:

who is on (shows who is currently logged on the system.)

write name (name is the person you wish to chat with)

To exit chat mode try ctrl-D.

EOT=End of Transfer.

ls -a (list all files in current directory.)

du -a (checks amount of memory your files use;disk usage)

cd\name (name is the name of the sub-directory you choose)

cd\ (brings your home directory to current use)

cat name (name is a filename either a program or documentation your username

has written)

Most Unix programs are written in the C language or Pascal since Unix is a

programmers' environment.

One of the first things done on the system is print up or capture (in a

buffer) the file containing all user names and accounts. This can be done by

doing the following command:

　

　

cat /etc/passwd

　

　

If you are successful you will a list of all accounts on the system. It

should look like this:

root:hvnsdcf:0:0:root dir:/:

joe:majdnfd:1:1:Joe Cool:/bin:/bin/joe

hal::1:2:Hal Smith:/bin:/bin/hal

The "root" line tells the following info :

login name=root

hvnsdcf = encrypted password

0 = user group number

0 = user number

root dir = name of user

/ = root directory

In the Joe login, the last part "/bin/joe " tells us which directory is his

home directory (joe) is.

In the "hal" example the login name is followed by 2 colons, that means that

there is no password needed to get in using his name.

Conclusion: I hope that this file will help other novice Unix hackers obtain

access to the Unix/Xenix systems that they may find. There is still wide growth

in the future of Unix, so I hope users will not abuse any systems (Unix or any

others) that they may happen across on their journey across the electronic

highways of America. There is much more to be learned about the Unix system

that I have not covered. They may be found by buying a book on the Unix System

(how I learned) or in the future I may write a part II to this........
