| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

Re: Tracert
In some cases you can see where the server/computer/ISP is physically located in the world, not from the IP address but from the other addresses that come in that aren't all numerical. This is useful because it can help you figure out where to mail a letter too if some one effs with you in an e-mail in a way you don't like.
For example:
If you put in: tracert google.com
then eventually after a couple IP addresses it come up with SanJose in the name of one of the computers it went through, so we can infer that somewhere along the line the signal sent by your computer went somewhere in SanJose.

Re: Tracert
It basically just maps out the "stops" that your packet makes on the way to the host.

Re: Tracert
you are an idiot.
like the people who think a gun isnt needed in a safety survival kit.
do you think your computer is connected directly to every other single computer in the world?
tracert tells you each computer the packet passes before it gets to the set destination.
there are heaps of uses, you might want to see who provides your isp with internet or which part of the internet is where you get lagged (the computer that lags your connection the most)

Re: Tracert
Some of us might even use it to resolve DNS names to IP's *gasp*!
ie: tracert www.google.com (http://www.google.com)
Tracing route to www.google.akadns.net (http://www.google.akadns.net) [64.233.167.99]
