Phatbox DMS Security Cracked!
« on: April 01, 2005, 03:49:51 pm »
I figured it out early this morning.  Quite easy really.

Once you get serial console access and log into the box (with root / phatbox ) you can run a script on the box called dmssign.  The box wont fully boot and mount the /dos partition if the script wasnt run on the drive.

I have an 80 gig drive out of a laptop I have running in my keg right now.  WOOT!  :o

OK, I'll bite.  I see you're in the Central Texas area.  I'm in Austin for a few days and am interested in upgrading to an 80gig drive if you're willing to help and this isn't a joke.

My hardware knowledge doesn't extend to the level you're working on so I don't know what I could offer in the way of help.

I keep hoping that someone else on the board will chime in with some ideas or do some testing of their own ...

We talked it over here at PhatNoise and we decided to help you all out by showing you the "private keys".

The red text on the Men's disk reads "DMS 5.0".
