The rules will probably not allow you to connect your own computer to the network, without permission. If you try to do things which are not allowed you might not like the consequences. You will get caught. It would be difficult to configure a Novell network so that "strange" computers could be attached without being noticed. |

| 386775 | 2005-09-09 04:46:00 | Back in middle school i figured out the schools server ip address and out of curiosity i put it in IE (later went on to connect to server thorugh novell (lol i downloaded it off novells webpage), anyways when i put it in IE this screen came up... it had this nice little border (sarcasm) then there was a login button so of course i log in (the admin had an account called "student" set up) so i logged in on the student account and i couldnt change settings (oddly enough i could upload files which i tested andi could overwrite files also so i was tempted to upload a file over the computer lab saved little typing program files but i didnt) oh yeah and i could set a password for "student" and i could remotely print to my schools printers (i thought about framing the comp lab teacher for printing out... im sure u can guess what...) well i was lookin through all the pages and i found a list off all the user names and how many workstations were logged on to that name (student had 43 on it, becasue none of the comp lab comps were ever turned off) and i clicked on something about detials and it listed all the ip addresses (internal of course like 192.168.xxx.xx) and then i saw my ip address (not internal...) and realized i bet they know im logged in right now... so pretty muchly everything the guy said about hte admin email and all that stuff... he was right, if u log in the admin will know. He might not have the email thing set up but if he just happens to be lookin through the pages changing settings or something one day... well that could be bad as for me i was never caught the admin was stupid and didnt have any alerts set so i later went to log on as a teacher, lol im friends with her son and i paid him 1$ for her password lol... so i logged on as a teacher but of course, same rights as students...(i once got caught updating a teachers webpage, it was hosted on the school site and a simple javascript password that was in the source page... lol when i got caught the school was semi mad (all the teachers hadto stay late one day because "some one" knew the password, lol i caused a staff meeting i felt special...) so in exchange for telling the admin how i got the password ( i was like duh its in the page source) i didnt get in trouble at all.) well im rambling on and the middle school is a thing of the past (on to junior high which has bad security setting on the networks (they have 3) also.) well im rambling on now and no1 cares about my stories im sure so im gonna shut up now lol... anyways what that whole hting was about is if u log in the admin will know |

| 386776 | 2005-09-10 00:33:00 | AS someone pointed out if you just want to access the Novell Servers (through mapping drives) then you can install Microsoft's Netware Client. But take note that this only works if they are using IPX on the servers (if they switch to IP only then it won't work). So if they are IP only then you will have to install the netware client (don't install other stuff such as Zenworks). Make sure that the run scripts option is not ticked, so that when you log into Netware you don't get programs executing that the novell admin has setup. No of course this does change your XP login screen to that of Novells, but nothing else is affected. You can probably change your login windows back to XP (but not the Welcome screen style, the Windows 2000 style of login) by changing the GINA back to Microsofts one (but I haven't tried this). See here (www.daniweb.com) but be careful. You will have to have the Netware Tree and Context correctly set too. |
