| 00:01.59 | kryptik[alt] | identd is a joke |
| 00:05.14 | TimRiker | why? |
| 00:05.24 | kryptik[alt] | nmap is why. |
| 00:05.58 | kryptik[alt] | Twas supposed to stop hackers in their tracks.. instead has become one of the most exploitable releases ever |
| 00:06.41 | kryptik[alt] | nmap has an ability to grab usernames from services running from a given port |
| 00:06.47 | kryptik[alt] | wait |
| 00:06.51 | kryptik[alt] | that isnt right |
| 00:06.58 | kryptik[alt] | it finds the users running the services |
| 00:07.02 | kryptik[alt] | yea... thats it. |
| 00:07.32 | kryptik[alt] | thats what I meant. |
| 00:07.53 | kryptik[alt] | Didnt think you would know the difference.. no offense |
| 00:08.00 | kryptik[alt] | ppl still reffer to them as hackers. |
| 00:08.04 | kryptik[alt] | damn media |
| 00:09.37 | TimRiker | I still think identd is a Good Thing. security by obscurity is a Bad Thing. all identd does it show security holes that should not be there in the first place. |
| 00:10.36 | kryptik[alt] | Yea, I guess your right. My comment was a bit ignorant. Everything has its weak points. I just dont think it did as much good as it did bad. |
| 00:14.10 | TimRiker | perhaps. should nmap be forbidden then too? what about satan etc? |
| 00:14.47 | TimRiker | the end point is that knowledge is good. if you have holes you should be able to find them as easy, or easier, than a cracker. |
| 00:14.51 | kryptik[alt] | Nah, I wasnt suggesting censoring of tools like that.. I was just suggesting that identd was not all it was made out to be. |
| 00:15.56 | kryptik[alt] | But your absolutly right. |
| 00:17.43 | kryptik[alt] | Did you go to PLUG? |
| 00:31.16 | TimRiker | nope. been busy |
| 00:31.49 | kryptik[alt] | Ahh, do you know what it was on? |
