Dutch Hacker Video via 2600 Magazine (1991, Part 1 of 3)

The infamous home video released by 2600 Magazine in Autumn 1991 showing Dutch hackers accessing US Department of Defense (military) computers. The video was meant to exemplify the poor state of computer security. No harm was done to the systems. More details here:

This was transferred from an original VHS tape and, as such, the audio and video are of sub-standard quality.

Thanks to YouTube's 10 minute limit, this video is part 1 of 3.

@Anox1e Unix. Server was misconfigured to allow read and write access to /etc. He added a user to /etc/passwd. The network which he is connecting through doesn't have echo, that's why he doesn't see what he has typed in until he enters it.

@Anox1e

It has to be some *nix system. Commands like "whois" and "sudo" or "root" gives it away. MsDos was a single user system where the user always was "root" in a way.

[Anox1e]

Is he hacking on an MS-DOS machine, or Unix terminal?
