- I just tested this file exactly on the only renegade bbs I have ever found
- w/ the archive file menu. Can anyone tell me whether this is method works
- or is bullshit? Method follows:
-
- Renegade is one of the more common bbs systems being used. Being a hack itself,
- of Telegard, one can easily guess that there's a bug in it somewhere. A bug?
- That's too small a word. This has missed all of our attention... Now you will
- know... You can grab all the renegade data files, user data files, and the chat
- logs.
-
- What You Need: A Renegade Mock Setup (If you wish to see the files good
- A Renegade BBS To Hack (They must have the archive menu)
-
- 1) Dial your target Renegade BBS...
-
- 2) Logon.. I advise using a fake account and deleting the logs when you're done.
-
- 3) After you logon, make sure the sysop is not around. Check the messages, play
- some door games to make it look normal. Page the sysop to see if he's around.
- Note that this hack is done better at night, when the sysop is asleep.
-
- 4) When ready, goto the file menu.
-
- 5) In the file menu there is an option called "/A". This is the archive menu.
- This is where you will do your work on compressed files.. this is also where
- you will do your hacking.
-
- 6) From the archive menu, select "W", to work on a file.
-
- 7) Enter the name of the archive you wish to work on. (This can be any name,
- followed by the extension of the file. ".ZIP" is the best, and most systems
- support it. What you will be doing is adding the data files to a .zip file
- for later download.
-
- 8) Now you have to add files. You hit "A" to do this. When it prompts you for
- files, type "../../u*.dat". Next type "../../r*.dat". Finally type
- "../../*.log".
-
- 9) Now you have the data files and chat logs in the archive... You may now
- download the file which you have created...
-
- 10) Now here's how to view it. Set up a mock Renegade BBS.
-
- 11) Copy the renegade.dat to your main renegade directory and copy the user
- files to x:\renegade\data\, or whatever your renegade data directory is.
-
- 12) Start renegade using RENEGADE /L .. this loads it in local mode..
-
- 13) Goto the user setup and start writing down passwords... System
- passwords are found in the system config section... (So you can logon
- as the sysop--Note that to do so you will need his/her phone number,
- password, and the system password. You can look at the RENEGADE.DAT
- file with a lister and find parts of passwords as well.)
-
- If anyone can help me out with this, I'd apreciate it. Thanks!
