- Happy Birthday to Phrack, Happy Birthday to Phrack, Happy Birthday
- Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday to Phrack. November 17th, 1993 marks
- the eighth year of Phrack Magazine. Amazing, ain't it? Seems like
- only a few years. Makes me feel old. Damn.
-
- I have been a busy boy since I put out 43. I've been to Boston,
- Amsterdam, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, and numerous points in between.
- I've been slaving at the day job, consulting and speaking about
- security on the side, working on other ventures you could not
- possibly conceive of without proper initiation, and piecing together
- this magazine. (Listening for applause)
-
- It's a big pain in the butt to do a magazine like this, especially
- when people who SAY they are going to write something, don't. I know,
- it's a typical hacker cop-out to start something and then get
- side-tracked by other projects. I'm as guilty of that as is any of
- you, but I'm trying to get better. So should those of you who are
- hiding your faces in shame...you know who you are.
-
- Every day I get bombarded with "When's the next Phrack coming out?"
- It started the day I released 43 on IRC. THE SAME DAY! 43 hadn't even
- gone out over the mailing list yet, and people were already asking
- when the next one was due out! I know they didn't read all 1.2
- megs of 43 before they started in on me. Geez, that gets old.
- For those of you who ever consider asking me such a thing, the answer
- is, "When it's done."
-
- Alas, still no new corporate registrations. A few people
- have expressed an interest, but never followed through.
- We have gotten a number of non-corporate registrations from
- people who I guess just wanted to send me mail. Listen
- guys, I love to hear from you all, but unless you are a corporate,
- federal, or law enforcement reader complying with our registration
- requirements and paying the fee, you don't have to send in the form.
-
- We've got a few nifty things in this issue. Phrack never really
- included much more than text. Last month's inclusion of the Novell
- utilities uuencoded was a departure from the norm, and I decided to
- do somthing like that again. In this issue you will find a small
- photo collection that might make you smile.
-
- If you can't figure out how to use uudecode, I suggest
- you close this file, and spend a few moments perusing the man page
- entries on that command, or consulting a good book on unix. And
- for you whiners that don't have accounts on UNIX boxes, uuencode
- and uudecode programs are available for DOS, Mac, Amiga and
- virtually any platform you care to use. (Although if you are using
- MVS, CICS, TSO or 400/OS, you reap what you sow.)
-
- A lot of conferences went on during the time that has passed since our
- last issue. It's nice to see that the community is making itself
- a louder voice in the world, although seeing the word "Cyber" on
- nearly every magazine in the Western Hemisphere is making me
- rather nauseous, and if Billy Idol gets on another TV show (aside from
- The Hollywood Squares, which would mean his career was OVER)
- I may have to sell everything electronic I own. Hell, there
- was even hacking on Melrose Place. Anyway, back to the point, as is
- the case with every gathering, we've got it covered.
-
- You might notice that there are a lot of files dealing with people
- and places rather than strictly items of hardcore technical info.
- I know some may disagree with me, but I really feel that its
- important to document and chronicle things that relate to the
- personalities of this community. I mean, how entertaining is it
- to read "HOW TO HACK TOPS-20" ten years later?
-
- Don't get me wrong and think we're not dealing with anything meaty.
- This issue we've also got operating system guides, cell & bell stuff,
- Van Eck info, and MORE MORE MORE.
-
- Phrack 44. It's out. Now leave me alone. :)
