What are other ways that admins remotely "administer" there website. If i was able to social engineer an admin password (just an example) out of an admin, what possible ways would the admin use to log into his server except for FTP ?

There are quite the many; a Control Panel wouldn't nessessarily run on a port you'd be able to scan also as it's generally a public url on the web with a redirect in the users webspace, for example: http://www.UnderGroundNews.com/admin/ | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 3,255 Likes: 3 UGN Elite | UGN Elite Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 3,255 Likes: 3 | Cpanel can be reached often by http://www.web-address.com/cpanel or http://www.web-address:2082 telnet://login:password@url/path/to/dir Get putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | | | | Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,146 Likes: 1 UGN News Staff | UGN News Staff Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,146 Likes: 1 | ehh i dont think alot of places use telnet that much anymore.. I think the 3 most popular are
SSH FTP Control Panel
and "cracking" a server isnt as easy as 1, 2, 3. Most of the servers log all activity. Good artists copy, great artists steal.

As for Control Panel's, there tend to be more than one can count lol... | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 13 Junior Member | OP Junior Member Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 13 | | | |
