    Hey Guys, While driving to work today i had this vision of the hacker's PC..a machine that could connect to any network and any device imaginable..that would have all the software necessary to break into systems and crack software.. So i was wondering if u could give suggestions about the possible configurations for such a machine.. For eg.. I was thinking that on the hardware front it would have to have a processor capable of running multiple kinds of OS'es including Mac OS .. and also it would need to have all kinds of interfaces and ports or atleast adapters to covert between them..it should be able to connect to various kind of networks..so any idea about the NIC's??...just give me some ideas..i might even build the thing :-D :-D Also on the software front it would have to multi OS..suggestions on which ones?..and have the most common compilers, debuggers, disassemblers etc...all the necesary docs about possible Exploits for various OS'es and software..password crackers and the likes.. What say??..any more ideas? int a=10000,b,c=2800,d,e,f[2801],g;main(){for(;b-c;)f[b++]=a/5;for(;d=0,g=c*2;c-=14,printf("%.4d",e+d/a),e=d%a)for(b=c;d+=f[b]*a,f[b]=d%--g,d/=g--,--b;d*=b);}

    Let me guess: the boss rejected your pay rise request? :) As to the actual machine, I have no idea.

      Hmmm, interesting .. not sure where your minds traveling --- but I'd be sure to have a copy of SoftICE on that baby ;) :suss: Travis D. Mathison --- --- After three days without programming .. life becomes meaningless ...

      Most Defintely :) :) ..but i think SoftIce only works in windows..how about the other platforms..Solaris etc.. :) Hey does anyone know of a device that can plug into a cable and capture the data that is being transmitted?.. char *p="char *p=%c%s%c; main(){ printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34); } Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now.

        :-D :-D :-D :-D Nothing of that sort mate..i guess it's kind of a childhood fantasy of the most amazing toy projected into adulthood :-D :-D Ok..i'll be bit more specific..which processor do you think the machine will have? char *p="char *p=%c%s%c; main(){ printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34); } Hard work has a future payoff.

              I believe NuMega has only made a Windows version of it (well, DOS also) .. and it runs behind the OS allowing you to stop the OS cold when cracking -- I mean debugging software (Device driver peoples are the prime users of the tool).

                    So what do Device Driver Developers on other OS'es use.. any ideas?..i know about gdb for linux..but i don't think it's as powerful as SoftIce.. char *p="char *p=%c%s%c;main(){printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34);} Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now.

                      So what do Device Driver Developers on other OS'es use.. I have no idea .. only have done device driver development on Windows, however I mainly use SoftICE for Masm debugging. As far as I know .. SoftICE4 is the most powerful debugger known to date (aka. It makes you God) hehe :-D Travis D.

                                          Most Defintely :) :) ..but i think SoftIce only works in windows..how about the other platforms..Solaris etc.. :) Hey does anyone know of a device that can plug into a cable and capture the data that is being transmitted?.. char *p="char *p=%c%s%c; main(){ printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34); } Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now.
