The Anatomy of a Hack – Hacking with Cain - By Ramius

L0phtcrack is very similar to cain some say better some say worse

Ok thanks, Ill give that a try.


This morning, Ive noticed that Cain has captured some IKE-PSK information, what exactly is this?

Its also grabbed a lot of telnet/ftp/http which is good, but no IMAP or M$ logins.

[SystemDownfall]

maybe they never log out. like me

Is this easy to crack with sendto cracker? what is this traffic type?

Thanks

i have the same problem. i'm on a university network and can't check what type of switches we're plugged into until later this night.

i can't get onto my roomates computer (not trying anything malicious, just to get this to work. he knows i'm doing it and i have his permission to tinker with his comp). we have the same default gate, same dns server, same dhcp server, same ip range (xx.x.x.167 and xx.x.x.122) where my primary .4 and secondary is .3 and his primary is .3 and secondary is .4. i dont think that this should cause this problem.

whenever i logon to a computer, i can check the status under the sniffer tab under passwords (far right) and it always says my status is a "guest" even if i login with an administrative user/pw. it's like i'm logging in with a bogus name/pw (which i can also do and get guest access) and doens't even recognize that it's administrative.

if i install abel manualy on his computer, then i can get to abel while still using guest rights. but that doesn't do me any good see as how i would need physical access to every computer i want to dump hashes for (honestly i just like breaking the pw's, i dont care about people's computer contents or being malicious. we started a project on encryption in one of my classes and that's why i'm interested.)

once (long time ago, i had win95 on my first PC) cain save my life, cause wih it i managed to return my account, pwd to which i forgot (actually mistyped, how it turned out). I was trying to hack win accounts then. Was like 12 years old

[ReVeR]

hey, this is of topic abit, but i am, looking and i see Chapter 2 there,....where is the first cahpter and the rest?
Thx

[pozican]

Cain seems to have trouble with SP2 -- any suggustions?

[ECP_alex]

uh, i no im dumb but, when your configuring, i think im doing the wrong thing, you're sposed to use your IP and MAC, right? or is it suppose dto be the person you're trying to hacks info?

[UniX]

Pozican, you running 2.7.3? The new version works great with SP2. Your having problems with the raw sockets?

Just a question on cain & able.

When I install cain & abel onto a network, I disable the antivirus first.

The crappy antivirus automatically starts up again after a few mins and detects and quarentines abel's dll file.

Just wondering if the sniffer requires abel to work or can you just use cain? Probably a stupid question.

[netphreak]

it shouldn't see it as a threat, so try installing it without disabling the AV first. The startup could be the only thing that catches it.

[:razta:]

Still same!

The antivirus is McAfee 8.0 virus scan enterprise.

I think that the antivirus gets reenabled by the server, cant seem to find a disable button for long term.

Could uninstall it then reinstall it when ive finished sniffing but the time it would take to do so would probably get me caught.

Ill have a read though the McAfee readme files.

Could disconnect the network cable, disable the antivirus, download cain and abel, install it then plug network cable back in.

ok now i did all like in tutorial. But when i start to install Abel he installs 50 percent and then gives me an error sayin Coulnd copy abel.exe. The network path was not found.

Then i click ok and another message pops up saying could not open service control manager: Access is denied. Could someone explain to me what this means.

And sometime i try to get usernames message comes saying that could not get someking SID.

What this SID means. I would appreceate the help

[Tenchuu]

Installation: Sounds like you aren't logged on as an Administrator. Change that

For the SID error: Get the whole error message and google for it

[Gotmilk]

well i manged to log in as administrator. I typed administrator and left password blank. And then i was in as compter administrator. but i still have the same error.

And i googled "Users enumeration error: Access is denied"
"Could not lookuo Domain SID" Still no help

[Tenchuu]

The errors are a bit weird and still smell after User-Problem

Where did you log in as Administrator?!? You sound a bit unskilled

Try to install Cain to "My Files" that could work. I think you are trying to install Cain to a folder where you don't have access to

[Gotmilk]

i have acces in everywhere in my computer.
I opened program right clicked on computer and login as administrator and left password blank. it was my roommates computer where i logged into. From the menu it showed me as and administrator. I made exactly like on tutorial. But after that i have problems.

i try what u suggested but i dont think it help very much.

PS thanks anyway

I know someone said this works just as well accross the WAN as it does on the LAN and they said you just manually add the I.P into the network section. Surely though you need some kind of access to the computer you are trying to get to, i mean like other than just being able to ping it, if I add an I.P of one of my friends PCs for example I just get network path was not found. I can ping the I.P im adding obviously, are there specific ports that need to be open for this? im probably missing something stupidly obvioius (as im sure uve guessed i am new to this and sory if its a daft quesiton) but has anyone got any suggestions or a quick tut on how to use this over the internet.
