So as the topic suggests accesing a ftp site from a command promt? heh how many of you people knew that is possible … ? well if you know how to or are pro at this at are laughing at me .. then pls do not read further cause it would amuse this is no end ;) .. but if you are hearing this for the first time then do continue !! ( For windows users )

First of all in the run command box type cmd.exe this would open the command prompt ( the rest of the article is for people who love to work in the command prompt cause it’s cool!! ) in the command prompt 

type ftp website(url) of eg ( ftp.gimp.org or ftp.skynet.be)

for user give anonymous 

in password : give a valid e-mail id .. some websites stop checking after the @ so check if this one does it! (if you have an user name and a password in your ftp site do enter that though most websites tend to take an anonymous user it’s not necessary) .

type dir to see a list of all files in the root folder that the folder that you enter first.( btw if you type that and you see a connection closed by the remote host ..like it was for me!!.. then just type user “your-username or anonymous” again)

then type cd “directory name” to enter the directory you want ..

type get “file name” to download files and 

type put “file name” if you got upload rights to the folder ..

mget or mput commands can be used to download or upload multiple files .. 

get a list of all ftp commands here FTP Commands. or just type help to get a list of all commans then do a “? command” to check what the command does ..  awesome right btw the command to exit the ftp mode is bye ..   :P

Sala Kahle!  ( btw the climate is awesome for blogging heh mumbaikers )

P.S : a goof ftp search engine FTP Search.

 

 

 

Hmm why did i begin a post with a bunch of crap words .. dunno .. but i am sure most of you harry potter freaks must have realized these as the most famous dumbeldore words ..  famous cause no one understands them .. or are the African of something ( if it actually makes some sence .. do tell me cause they are like my life’s motto.!! :P   )

Now before i go on something related to my last post …  i just got to know another method for verification of passwords it’s the database password verification on the server side .. ( two kinds of verification client side {mostly JavaScript or other} and the other is server side {database verification} ) that’s cause if done on the client side people would be able to access the database!! lol that’s so obb … well before i lose track again .. the password you put in is md5 hashed and for all you noobs out thereit an encrytion algorithm which cannot be unhashed! ( though they can be predicted with a probablist unhashing algorith go google it) , what is then done is these md5 hashed passwords are then compared with the already hashed passwords in the table and then the cookies are sent .. nice work right .. almost full proof .. unless you can actually acess the databse .. that can be done too depending on the server’s for eg: i read somehwhere on hacking a iis windows 2000 server with a good example of a script (trogan) opening a unauthenticated port (99) with read/write attributes and acess to the whole server with the tftp command and telnet tooo!! .. awesome right?

well off to other topics like lets see ..  SEO? well i am quite new to it but the best way to do it is just including various currently “in” words in your article like LOK-SABHA , Britney , Google , WordPress ,  Iphone , CMS , hacking , harry-potter and some others and then adding them to your tags .. does it work .. well i will tell you next time after checking the hits for this post .. ( as i told you i am new to this!! ) .. oh and btw if you are reading this it had to work!!

 

Sala Kahle!!  ( It’s Zulu i think)
