i have used sooo many different linux distros and i just always end up going back to my windows os... i know i know... well i wanna start doin remote hacking and im going to be using phlack linux, what are some of the first ways i should try hacking?
Unless you are interested in hacking the linux kernel I assume you are talking about cracking which is explicity against the ruls of this site: http://www.linuxquestions.org/rules.php
If this is the case then please find somewhere else to discuss such issues.
i remember back a year ago when ppl didnt flame you all time and actually helped people.
Now, it's not about flaming, it's about keeping kids (you) out of the kitchen. Hacking is not a game and you don't want to get into troubles, and we don't want you do. Moreover, we just try to suggest you to stop acting nasty so we, sysadmins, can live quitely.
Ok, here's the advice: there are many punks out there, run your own server and try to keep them out. Much more fun. Be the guard not the thief
I hate it when people think this is just a button you press here, something you type here, and click that there. Its an art. Like fixing a car, you cant just do it. Theres external variables. I agree with chuck. Go hack your fingers off before you start thinking about this.
