Explain yourself, what do you mean?

| When i sit at a terminal connected to a DECserver, i can get to the
"Local> " prompt by hitting the Break key (F5). Do a "Local> HELP LOCK"
[start quote]
LOCK
When you issue LOCK, you must enter a password twice, once on the "Lock
Password>" and once to the "Verification>" prompts. To unlock your terminal,
enter the same password to the "Unlock Password>" prompt.
The password is a string of 1 to 6 keyboard characters.
[end quote]
Once a terminal connected to DECserver is locked, that whole port is jammed.
What i would like to know is if anyone has discovered any way of unlocking
a port, without initially knowing the password, namely any flaws in the
security implementation on the DECserver.
Or perhaps someone could explain how the password system on a DECserver
works, ie memory stored ? retrievable ? etc.
Regards.

In order to free the port the person(s) with the SET PORT PRIV password
can log the port out. This will also cause all the current sessions
being run from that port to be logged out.

If you DO know a way to crack the DECserver LOCK command, please don't
post it here.

| Easy way to unlock a locked DECserver port - yank the power cord!

"Hacking" is the job of programming taken to an art.
"Cracking" is malicious application of that talent. I don't want
cracking hints in this notesfile.
Anyone who objects is welcome to host the file :-)

p.s. logging out the port will unlock it.. but it will disconnect the
sessions. probably not what you want.

I doubt it. It should cause the current sessions to be
disconnected, not logged out.

| Dave's right. Those sessions will get disconnected. However, unless
you're using virtual terminals (VTAnn), being disconnected means
being logged off. So: you're both right! ;-)

| 666.10 | How do you make them disconnect? | SKYLRK::ENDTER | | Fri Jan 22 1988 16:10 | 6 |
| We are using DECSERVERS and virtual terminals, but the DECSERVER
connections always connect as an LT device which does not have
disconnect set. What am I missing? How do I get my DECSERVERS
to disconnect instead of logging off?

| You have to set the DISCONNECT bit in the default terminal characterstics -
SYSGEN parameter TTCHARDEF2, or something like that. Try the LCP documen-
tation - it should be there.
