"Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures"


From a terminal session on the Linux machine, start an FTP connection to
the Windows server by typing ftp 172.16.1.60 and pressing Enter.
In this lab, when asked for a username, anonymous is used.
564  Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures
The password for the anonymous user is entered and the user has successfully
logged in via FTP to the Windows 2000 machine.
The traffic between the two computers is monitored back on the attacker??™s
machine. By highlighting each line of traffic, any usernames and/or passwords
will be displayed in the lower part of the application. In this example, the username
of anonymous with the password of virtually@hacking.com was detected.

Sniffing traffic on a switch and intercepting username/password combinations
is bad enough; what about changing the data on the wire as it occurs?
Ettercap allows an attacker this option as well with the use of filters.
First, ensure that the Linux machine can actually get to the Web site on
the Windows 2000 server.
Back on the attacker??™s machine, select the Linux machine as the source
computer.
566  Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures
Select the Windows 2000 server as the destination machine.
Begin the ARP poisoning by pressing the A key.
Wireless  567
Bring up the Ettercap Filters screen by pressing the F key. In this example,
we want to edit the traffic on the source computer. Press the W key.
Initially there will be no Filters.
