.it /pub/security/crypto - Here you can find a bunch of illegallyexported crypto.Everything imaginable is probably on this site.also:check out the web links from http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/cypherpunks.htmlAll in all, the cypherpunks home page sucks, but it is a good place to findother good crypto links.-- IN CLOSINGI hope this file has been somewhat helpful in demonstrating the need for theuse of cryptography in your everyday communications.In researching this file,I have learned a few extra things myself.Enjoy, and Encrypt.Great and mighty thanks be to:Phil Zimmermann (For being a hero for the cause of privacy!)Matt Ghio (Author of the remailer help file)Raph Levien (Author of the remailer information file and operator of theremailer pinging service (from which the file was derived))And to the author of the chaining help file, whoever he or she may be.Ghost in the Machinegitm@alpha.c2.org-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Time For a Changepresentspagers.PAGERS.pAgErS.PaGeRs.PagerS.byMajor------------------------------------------------------------------------------BASICS (stuff you already know)-------------------------------Pagers are radio receivers, capable of decoding and displayingnumeric, and sometimes alpha, messages.Pagers operate in a stateof perpetual reception, and whenever the system sends a messagekeyed to a particular pager, the pager responds by giving an alert(either audible beeps, or vibration), and displays the message.SERVICE--------------------------------Pager service is cheap.Damn cheap.A month's worth of serviceshould cost less than $10.So, there isn't much of a financialreason to have to hack free paging service.But.There are very few companies that provide paging service in anygiven area, yet there are multitudes of companies that sell theservice.These are "agents" or "resellers".In order to activateyour pager (you do have a pager, don't you?), you will need to knowa couple of thing about it: it's capcode, and it's frequency.Generally, both of these are printed on the pager itself (on theback, on stickers).The capcode consists of six-digits, but oftentimes letters will be scattered in as well.Discard the letters,keep the numbers, and you have your capcode.The frequency willbe in a XXX.XXXX format.Your next step will be to find out whichpaging company uses the frequency in your pager in your area.Afew phone calls will do the trick.Simply call and ask.It maytake a while to find someone with enough technical knowledge toanswer you, but once you find someone who knows it shouldn't behard to get the information from them.Simply tell them you havea pager on (xxx.xxxx frequency) and want to know if it can be usedon their system.The next step will be to find out which "agents"sell service for the company you have targeted.This is easy, too.In fact, while you are on the phone asking about frequencies, youcan ask for a list of authorized agents.The yellow pages willalso yield some results.Enough of the easy stuff, on to the hard part.Social engineeringskills are essential here.When an agent sells a pager to acustomer, they must activate the pager with the paging company.This is done either through a dial-up system, where the agentsenters the pager info in the paging companies computer, or over thephone, where the agent calls the paging company, relays theinformation, and the company enters the information into theircomputer.To activate your own pager, you will need to assume theidentity of an agent, and call the paging company.Theconversation should be fairly simple."Hi, this is KewlHac from ABC Paging, I need to activate a pager.""Sure thing!""Okay, the capcode is 123456.""Fine.The number for that pager will be 555-6969.""Thanks, have a good day."Done.If ABC paging usually activates its pagers via computer, youmight add "Sorry to bother you, but my computer is down.could youhelp me out?" A trip to ABC Paging, posing as a potential customershould tell you if this is the case.How long will it last? Depends on how sharp ABC Paging is.Atworst, 555-6969 should remain valid for at least a month; at best,who knows.Enjoy it while you can.HARDWARE--------One word: Motorola
