Besides a different number of timeouts, ringouts, or busys, most residential exchanges look very similar - an even distribution with no pattern. In a business exchange you are much more likely to find patterns.

You may find a string or cluster of modems, a large range of similar timeouts or voice responses, etc. Ranges that are busy like the column in our example could be permanently busy, or some message which the modem detects as a busy. It varies widely, and your best bet is to always check it out manually - you never know what you'll find. It behooves you to scan your prefixes and study your results. It is best to scan a prefix in one big scan xxxx rather than xxx, xxx, etc so you can see the whole prefix at once.

We would love to have a look at your results and have a look at your. DAT files - try to get in touch with us! Who knows The simplest way is to use ToneLoc to look for an internal dialtone. Lets say you found a 3 digit PBX at which hangs up on you after you enter a bad code. DAT will be the. This will produce dialing strings like this: ATDT Wxxx W; ToneLoc will dial the number, wait for a dialtone, try a code, then wait for a second dialtone.

If you get the right code, you'll get the second dialtone, otherwise you'll just get a timeout. Some PBX's have alert tones for invalid codes which the W command will hear as a dialtone. You can't look for a second dialtone directly with the W command on these PBX's, but Toneloc has a scan mode designed specifically for this problem.

Toneloc will dial the number, wait for the first dialtone, dial the code, wait for a dialtone, dial 1, then wait for a dialtone. If the code is invalid, the second W command will hear the alert tones as a dialtone and dial 1. The tones should keep playing, and the third W will respond to the alert tones too, giving a final response of Tone.

If the code is valid, the second W command will hear the internal dialtone and the 1 will immediately quiet it since 1xx or 1xxx is a valid extension on most PBX's. This would give a final response of Timeout since the third W command won't find a tone - and voila, you have your code. Are you confused yet?

This method might not work if 1xx or 1xxx isn't a valid extension on the PBX you are trying to hack, since some PBX's will immediately give an alert tone if you dial the first digit of an invalid extension. If you fail the first time around, and think you might have this problem, have a look at the phone number for the PBX indial.

For example, if the PBX indial is , it's a good bet that some valid DID extensions are in or near 4xxx, 3xx, or 2x. Therefore, 4, 3 or 2 is probably going to be the first digit of a valid extension, making them good candidates for your terminal digit. Apparently some PBX's will respond with a carrier blast to an invalid code, although we've never found one. You can use the everything-but-a-carrier scan mode for these, or just look for an internal dialtone if carriers don't appear as tones to the W command.

See Dual Scanning. For a classic example, see the Fall issue of magazine. There is a letter in there that Minor Threat received once after dialing about numbers by HAND sequentially! First of all, if you are are looking for tones you may not get much. Many of the PBX's or extenders you would be looking for will answer with a short tone, about the length of a ring.

That's how ToneLoc will perceive those tones - as a ring. Many of the PBX's may also answer with silence, and need or 9 to activate their tone.

Local PBX's can answer like this as well, however the exchanges are more likely to have better security since they are under constant pressure from call-sell operations as well as every code abuser in the nation. Second, MCI and Sprint can get irritated when someone makes thousands of calls into their exchange, and, unlike a local number, they WILL have easy access to at least your area code and exchange, and probably your entire phone number.

Since each call costs somebody money, and you aren't conducting legitimate business during these calls, it might also be considered theft of service. Hacking an system of any kind, be it a computer, long distance extender, PBX, or even a VMB system, can be extremely risky.

We urge you to use good judgment. Find a local PBX and divert your call through it. Politely explain to anyone who calls back that you dialed a wrong number - don't provoke them into a Call Trace. If Caller ID is active, use more caution - they could have your phone number and scanning could be construed as harrassment, especially if it happens at am. In any case, please use some intelligence if you are scanning a range that belongs to a large company. Often the same operator will have to answer dozens of incoming phone numbers, and your strange hangups may get tiresome enough in the course of the day that he or she might decide to do something about it.

Listen in on ToneLoc to figure out what kind of an exchange you are scanning. If it is principally a business exchange, consider only scanning at night when the affected businesses are closed. If it is mostly residential you might want to scan during the day.

Make intelligent use of the exclude mask to eliminate ranges that will most likely be unproductive - unused ranges, pager numbers, answering services, cellular phones, etc. If you want an overview of your local exchanges, first try the yellow pages.

You will quickly discover where promising exchanges are. If you want greater depth, go to your local public library and ask at the reference desk for the criss-cross directory. A section of this directory is a listing of the telephone numbers in an exchange. It does not list unlisted or nonpublished numbers PBX's will not show up, although the PBX billing number might , but it will show you if the exchange is a residential one or not. Ten minutes of thought can save you 50 hours of scanning.

Have a little patience; you'll be glad you did. Make sure you hack RANDOMLY - sequential hacking is always a good way to get noticed although it probably won't make a difference in this case , and besides ToneLoc has a better chance of finding the code sooner. Is Scanning Illegal? Who cares We don't know. We've heard it is legal to scan during business hours when the call would not be harrasment. We've heard it's not illegal if you only call once. We've heard that scanning with intent to hack is illegal, as if such a thing could be proven.

Some people suggest not using the same phone line for hacking and scanning. Remember, the most important thing is not whether it is illegal, but whether you piss someone off or attract attention. Here's what the staff at magazine have to say about wardialing: "In some places, scanning has been made illegal.

It would be hard, though, for someone to file a complaint against you for scanning since the whole purpose is to call every number once and only once. It's not likely to be thought of as harassment by anyone who gets a single phone call from a scanning computer. Some central offices have been known to react strangely when people start scanning. Sometimes you're unable to get a dialtone for hours after you start scanning.

But there is no uniform policy. The best thing to do is to first find out if you've got some crazy law saying you can't do it.

If, as is likely, there is no such law, the only way to find out what happens is to give it a try. Or; Why doesn't Toneloc work with my modem? This tells the modem to dial the number , wait for dialtone, and then return to the command line. ToneLoc then waits for a result code.

If it gets Ringing, Voice, Busy, etc. If it gets nothing, the modem never heard a dialtone, so ToneLoc hangs up and moves on - this is a timeout. Weekend in San Fransico. Lucy Slim Jeans Noisy May.
