The Unix operating system is one of the many operateing systems that
the telephone companies use along with big businesses. The
information that is contained in this article came from
experimentation on the Northwestern Bell computer in Omaha, Ne. The
last phone number to the system was: 402-342-1239.
When logging onto the Unix system you must enter the logcode and pass-
word in lowercase. Most Unix system logcodes contain 3 letters (i.e.
some of the working ones when I was exper- imenting on the N.B. Unix
system were: rld, glc, rwd, djr, skm, rrc, chg, wgg, sgs, efo, lcs,
jrp, glh, glry, stein. Note: Some logcodes have more than 3 letters.)
Also, from what I can tell is that the logcodes are generated with the
persons name, most of the time anyway (i.e. Ruth Dempster's log- code
is:rld Gary Coe's logcode is:glc Don Romain's logcode is:djr Eino Onk-
ka's logcode is:efo Note: there are some cases where this is not true
like: Jeff Stein's logcode is:stein and Bob Dietrich's logcode
is:rwd)
Passwords are a little tricky but then again some of the people who
work for the telephone co. are not that smart. An example of this is
some people like useing there last name for there password or maybe
there first, yet another is maybe the will use a computer related
password like 'floppys' But trying to find a pass- word other than
there name is a task that most people do not want to at- tempt, even
me. To help us in finding the users on line and getting users
logcodes we need to know a simple com- mand which is 'phone' this is a
handy little command which allows you to see who is online at that
particular time and also get there logcodes and bus- iness phone
numbers. The following is an example of a 'phone' listing:
rld Ruth Dempster NPA-XXX-XXXX
glc Gary Coe NPA-XXX-XXXX
rwd Bob Dietrich NPA-XXX-XXXX
djr Don Romain NPA-XXX-XXXX
skm Sharon Matcha NPA-XXX-XXXX
chg Chuck Gray NPA-XXX-XXXX
wgg Gary Giles NPA-XXX-XXXX
sgs Steve Schlosser NPA-XXX-XXXX
efo Eino Onkka NPA-XXX-XXXX
lcs Lin Sletten NPA-XXX-XXXX
jrp John Piper NPA-XXX-XXXX
glh Gary Humphrey NPA-XXX-XXXX
glry Al Ryerson NPA-XXX-XXXX
stein Jeff Stein NPA-XXX-XXXX

From the above listing we have acquired logcodes and the persons name
that matches the logcode along with there business phone number.
One last little note is that on the Northwestern Bell Unix system is
that you can type 'mesg n' and it will keep everyone from finding out
what you are doing, like the operator on duty at that particular
time. I do not know if this is true on other systems though.
If you would like to know more about the Unix system or hacking a
system then you should read the hacking files concerning Cosmos, Data
General, Vax, ect.
