Hacking Renegade & TeleGuard BBS Systems This file will teach you the basic methods in hacking Renegade and TeleGuard Bulletin Board Systems. There will, also, be a few commands listed. With more sysop's modding their bbs's for their specific tastes, familiar youself with the system before you plan to hack it! Look for similar commands in the menus if the particular command is not listed as in this text. μμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμ Disclaimer: μμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμμ This file is for informational purposes only.

Do this to ensure safety of not getting your ass busted. 3) Make sure the sysop has a few things set before you begin to hack his board. The first thing is is to make sure the sysop has the Auto-Validate all new files set to 'ON'. You can check this very easily by uploading any file and see if that file has an 'Unvalid' word next to the file's name. If it has this you will have to wait until he validates the file. Or if the file has a number or the size of the file, you're in luck. The next step, make sure the sysop has an 'Archive Menu'. Some sysops choose to have this privelage to only "Quality" users. The command switch for the archive menu is either 'A' or '/A', but it could be under any other name. If the sysop doesn't have the menu then you can't hack his board, and you're SoL! There are other ways to hack Renegade/TeleGuard board, but I won't go into them. The most effective way to hack yourself into the sysop's DoS is to use the PKZIP.BAT method. To do this read the instructions below. 1) Make the PKUNZIP.BAT file from DOS, by typing in this: copy con pkunzip.bat command ^Z 2) Then go and zip the file up, call it something that sounds catchy, but not too suspicious. Ok, if you have the file ready to upload, you are ready to begin to hack the board. Logon to the board, then go to the file area. Once you have done this, upload the file to a directory that you can retrieve the file from. After you have up'ed the file, go to the archive menu and extract the file, usually the sysop will have the extract command under 'X'. Well if you did everything right, you should be in the sysop's DoS, if not you probably have done something wrong. Well if you have dome something wrong tough shit! Once you are in DoS, delete this file, 'x:\bbs\logs\sysop', where 'x' is the sysop's drive that he runs Renegade/Teleguard off of. Also delete any files in the temp. directories. To run Reneagde/Teleguard in local mode, type 1) TTY COM# <- where # is the sysop's com port 2) Renegade -k That will let you basically anything you want to his bbs system w/o him even seeing what you are doing to his machine.
