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.

passwd will almost for sure be shadowed and reduced. that means that all the passwords will be in a file you -CANNOT- read and all non-FTP accounts will not be in that file. Generally, its a pretty useless file now even if you can read it/list it.

Not that useless. Helps to know what one or two of the passwords are in that list. The encryption on shadowed passwd files, varying from system to system, isn't as sophisticated as it should be and can be cracked by anyone with the right software. That said, I'm not sure what he was asking; I think he already has root but wants to place a passwd file somewhere so that it uses his passwords for different users. Um, this is kind of a tricky exploit to pull of safely unless you already completely own a machine. Its kind of a silly question. Um, if you're asking if you can transfer files through anything other than ftp, yes.
