i need to know how to use MS-DOS to find out passwords of users on the computer, to change passwords, to get administrator status, and anything else you coders think would be useful.

sure, im a " n00bxors! " but i dont care. i just want to fuck up my school system and install some shit there.

cheers.

VB > DOS

the possibilies of VB go way beyond DOS because you can edit the registry that way.

in what way do you want to fuck up the school system? Crash it, become admin, delete all the users, delete all shared maps?

Unfortunately , you can't really use DOS to do such things.

Because you'll still need the passwards, admin accounts and so forth in order to use and change them.

DOS functions on the same level as windows and so forth, as a Operating System.

You want a hacking tool for what you are after and, unfortunately, I cannot recommend one to you.

In a windows 2003 network you can acces the Active Directory via DOS but you do need to run the batch from the server

Umm.... MS-DOS does not support admin and user accounts or groups...

Either you have access to the command prompt, or you're locked out by a 3rd party application or BIOS password.

As for accessing Windows 3.x and Win95 settings, that's completely different. There are applications to hack passwords, but good luck finding them.

a normal script can block cmd as well and then bios password doesn't affect anything on the OS, it's simply to protect the BIOS, nothing more

The bios password can keep you from actually booting the system. All you need to do is reset the bios by powering on with the correct jumper engaged.

A script? Umm... just press F5 while DOS is loading. Autoexec.bat and config.sys are bypassed = script bypassed. Problem sovled.

Although if you have a 3rd party command interpreter, there might be additional security. I was a hardcore 4DOS user, but don't remember if it offered any password protection from actually booting up or using the command line.

I grew up as a DOS poweruser. You're not going to keep me out of a DOS based system.

Oh, I see that this discussion is about networking... depends on what kind of network. If you can gain access to the actual server, you might be able to mess with stuff severely... There are a bunch of wannabe hacker apps that can do a lot of different things depending..., though it's up to you to find them, figure out how to work them, and hope you haven't installed a trojan.

^flashing your bios (happens when you reset the jumper) will also cause the bios password to be reset so that's not an option

VB-script has nothing to do with Autoexec or config.sys. It's purely directed at the windows environment but I didn't know that you could bypass them, thanx, will try that out

Every OS is almost Unix and Dos = Unix
