| ~ Baby's Got Back! ~ |
|
|
| Welcome to the special 40th Anniversary issue of Phrack Magazine! A month |
| later, we are just barely recovering from the fun at the amazingly successful |
| SummerCon '92. It was the largest turnout ever seen at a SummerCon and the |
| full details can be found in a special report by Knight Lightning and myself |
| with help from Holistic Hacker and Dr. Williams. |
|
|
| Brian Oblivion, whose name is regularly seen in the pages of Phrack returns |
| with part two of his file on Cellular Telephony (part one seen in Phrack 38). |
| Also relating to telephones in this issue is "The Fine Art of Telephony" by |
| Crimson Flash. This equally in depth and detailed file focuses of RC/MAC, |
| FACS, and MARCH. |
|
|
| Even though the arrogant bastards at Southwestern Bell and BT Tymnet boast |
| about their great security, it appears that they had almost nothing to do with |
| the tracking down and apprehension of the MOD in New York. As a few of us |
| already know, MOD was brought in by hackers. Gee, imagine that. |
|
|
| I'm not going to play politics and make judgments about this, instead I'll let |
| you read all about it in Phrack World News, Part 2 and then you can draw your |
| own conclusions. |
|
|
| Since we're on the subject of Tymnet, I felt it appropriate <grin> to include |
| 3 articles on the subject by Toucan Jones. A special "kissy, kissy" to Dale |
| Drew (aka The Dictator aka Blind Faith aka Bartman) for his help and assistance |
| in getting us this valuable information. Could a file on TRW be 'round the |
| corner? Hmmmmmm could be. :-) |
|
|
| Starting with this issue, Mind Mage will be assisting with Phrack Loopback as |
| our Technical Advisor. He will handle questions regarding technical problems |
| both for publication or for private response. Feel free to send your questions |
| to phracksub@stormking.com and they will be forwarded and answered. |
|
|
| This issue's Loopback has a very special message from Jester Sluggo as he |
| gives notice of his official retirement from the hacking community. Sluggo |
| remembers the past and give advice about the future; I continue my pursuit on |
| the so-called professionals in the anti-virus community and exposes their real |
| agenda; and, Sarlo takes us on a tour of the 1992 Consumer Electronics Show in |
| Chicago and there is lots more. |
|
|
| The Racketeer (Rack of The Hellfire Club) takes the reigns of the continuing |
| Network Miscellany column and Rambone returns with the latest on what is |
| happening in the underground world of computer software traders in Pirates |
| Cove. |
|
|
| Taran King is back for a special Phrack Pro-Phile with Lex Luthor, the founder |
| of the Legion of Doom and perhaps the most legendary underground hacker ever. |

|
|
| You are invited to check out a great new BBS called Planet 10. If you have |
| half a brain, you might even get access. Planet 10 is run by Control C and |
| features messages and xfers that are timed to expire after 1 week maximum. |
| Give it a call at (313)683-9722. |
