Nmap Basic Tutorial

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


[+] Nmap Basics - Tutorial


[+] Author: Neutralise


[+] Location: http://thesoftwareengineer.org/services/tuts/NmapBasics.txt


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Intro:


The tool i will be teaching you to use is called nmap and you can find the site


for nmap and further documentation here:


http://insecure.org/nmap/


Nmap is the leading security scanner for network professionals.


For starters open up nmap, do this by double clicking the nmap shortcut button.


It is important to remember that nmap is a commandline tool, not a simple click


and scan tool like other port scanners.


Typing "nmap -help" will provide you with a FULL list of nmap's commands but since you


want to use it particularly for port scanning and finding what ports are open and


what runs on them i will only explian the relevant commands. As to explain them all


would take literally hours.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Firstly, to explain what it is we are doing. Ports are numbers that TCP/IP uses to


map packets to services.


For example some common ports are:


21 FTP


22 SSH


23 TELNET


25 SMTP


80 HTTP


110 POP3


Full ports list can be viewed here:


http://www.iss.net/security_center/advice/Exploits/Ports/


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


When scanning hosts there are a lot of options you may want to use to find more


information about the target. Here are the most commonly used options:


-sS TCP SYN scan


-sT TCP connect scan


-sU UDP port scans


-v Verbose output


-vv very verbose output


-O Detect operating system


-sV Service version detection


-P0 Dont ping, just scan


-p Choose your ports


-F Fast scan


For example by scanning:


nmap -vv -P0 192.168.0.3


Would scan the IP 192.168.0.3, print very verbose output, and to scan the machine


without pinging it.


nmap -O 192.168.0.3


This would do an OS version detection on the target host(TCP/IP finger-prinitng).


nmap -p 1234 -O -sV 192.168.0.3


This scan would scan port 1234 and see if it was open, as well as an OS version


detection.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


You can also make nmap save log files when outputing commands. These options are:


-oN This logs to a normal file like you see on nmap (human readable).


-oX XML output (open with webbrowser)(i use this one).


For example by scanning:


nmap -oX mylog.xml 192.168.0.3


Would scan the host, then in the nmap program file folder save a file named mylog.xml,


with the results of the scan in it.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Nmap has some commands to decoy where your scan is coming from.


For example:


-D Add decoy IPs to confuse the target's logs


When the decoy option is used nmap will send spoofed packets from the IP address


that you specify. This will confuse targets logs as it will look like many different


machines are actually doing a port scan and it will make it hard for the administrator


to decipher which IP is actually doing the portscan (yours).


For example:


nmap -P0 -D microsoft.com,ME,google.com 192.168.0.3


This command wont ping, uses decoys of microsoft.com and google.com and ME is your


real IP address (required).

Learn some Strategies in Mafia Wars



A game designed by Zynga, Mafia wars has become greatly popular nowadays. In fact, it now has millions of players. One of the useful motivations of such game is to expand and strengthen your Mafia family by convincing your friends to join in. To succeed in this game, you need to fight, purchase properties, level up, make money, grow your family, experience points, and a whole lot more.


Since it is now so famous, it isn't a surprise that more and more people are now looking for ways just to find useful cheats on the said game. Unfortunately, these cheats are very hard to find in the Internet. This is because Zynga is really good at fixing any leaks especially about cheats.

Some strategies you can use in playing Mafia Wars are:


o Fight


It is advisable to fight bigger Mafia. The secret here is to choose the person who has big amount of money which is proportionate to a huge possibility of winning the game. Before joining in the fight, make sure your supply of money is low. This is important because those who have more money also have more to lose once they lose a fight. It is hence important to buy properties and businesses first before getting into a fight.


o Take care of your health


The cost of restoring your health to the highest level depends on the amount of money you have. The rule here is: the lesser your money, the more advisable it is to consult your doctor. Those who have big amount of money are oftentimes asked by the doctor to pay bigger amount for their healing. Nevertheless, you have to consider the amount you can earn from fights because it can be smaller than the amount your need to pay for your doctor.


o Buy properties and businesses


Are you familiar with the compounding theory? This is also applicable in Mafia Wars. If you want to play and you're sure that you won't be playing again for the next hours, make sure to purchase several properties and businesses first. They will contribute a lot to your income even while you are playing. It is also okay to wait until you accumulate enough money.


o Improve your stamina by using skill points


It is always worthwhile to utilize your skill points because it will help improve your stamina which in turn allows you to do more jobs. If you do more jobs, you are actually leveling up for every job. It does not only provide you with skill points but also defense and attack points. Another tip is to upgrade or restore your health early to be able to fight for a few more rounds.


o Upgrade your energy level


Energy is vital in this game because it lets you do more missions that bring in money.


These are just few but helpful Mafia Wars strategies which will make you level up speedily and gain more money while still having fun playing this oh-so-addictive game.




Easy Guides for Playing Mafia Wars (Totally Newbies)

Guides in Playing Mafia Wars

While Mafia Wars requires only a few mouse clicks, the tactics behind it is really complicated. As a player, you should also be skilled and capable enough of making careful and well thought-out decisions.


At the start of the game, it may seem vague to you as to where to bring your mafia. There are players who take pleasure leveling up as fast as they can while there are some who just play real slow and savor the feeling of getting wealth, collections, and properties. There are also some who enjoy establishing large mafia to fight with other players. You may also belong to those who concentrate on doing each job in every tier. No matter how you play, there are some approaches you can consider to be able to get the most out of your gaming experience.


Doing and Completing Jobs


Jobs are among the essential factors in Mafia Wars. They help you level up, gain money, get special loot, and gather the seven exceptional items that are needed to complete your collection.


Beginners in Mafia Wars need to finish several jobs which are great money-making opportunities. They also help you in your goal of putting up a mafia group. As you level up, you will discover new and more difficult jobs that may need a particular size of mafia, extraordinary items, or certain level to finish.


You can complete jobs by clicking the "Jobs" tab in the Mafia Wars' main menu. Then, you will be taken to a page that contains available jobs and the required items and energy for each job.


Job Mastery

Once you complete jobs, you'll see an area that presents your percentage of mastering a particular job. Achieving 100% in the first job tier allows you to head on to the next level and so on. There are corresponding rewards for every mastery level completed.


While it takes a lot of energy and considerable amount of time to master jobs, you will be rewarded with valuable bonus items that provide your mafia with lasting improvement.


Getting More Mafia Members

The size of your mafia is very important to your progress in Mafia Wars. If your group has more members, you can complete more jobs, guard yourself from assaults, fight with other mafias, purchase exceptional properties, and employ top Mafia Wars members who provide you with extra bonuses for fights and jobs.


To include more members to your group, go to "My Mafia (X)" button in the Mafia Wars' main menu. The letter 'X', which is enclosed in the parentheses, indicates your group's present size. When you click the said button, the next page that comes into view will allow you to invite your friends or anyone you know to be part of your Mafia. The maximum mafia size is 501 so you have to choose your members wisely.


Advancing your Character


You can upgrade your character not only by completing jobs but also by fighting or attacking other mafias. Once you level up, you will be awarded five skill points. Moreover, one skill point will be given once you master a job and a job tier.


You can utilize your skill points in Mafia Wars by clicking on the 'Profile' tab. Doing so will lead to a page which lets you improve your mafia's energy, attack, health, stamina, and defense. You cannot undo your points allocations so make sure you choose wisely.


Easy Finding Way in Mafia Wars

Finding Your Way in Mafia Wars




If you are new to Mafia Wars and you are still finding your way around, it would help if you have a guide to help you understand the game faster and easier. Though this online game may look complicated and difficult to understand at first, you'll surely be hooked once you learn the technicalities and the rules of the game.


So, what do you need to know about the game?


Other than the basics-building your mafia, accomplishing jobs, fighting enemies, and earning money-there are a few more things you have to be familiar with. Among these are the following:


Properties


There are different ways by which you can earn money. Other than by accomplishing tasks and fighting, you can also buy properties that earn income for a certain period of time. Sure, properties cost a lot, but they will also give you more income in the long run. You will need to buy a property where you can put up your business (abandoned lot, commercial block, prime downtown lot, or beachfront property). Once you have these, you can choose the business that you can put up in the said space-from delis to houses for rent and restaurants. Once you have one, all you need is to wait for money that you will just have to collect.


The Bank


Whenever you perform jobs or win fights against your enemies in Mafia Wars, you earn money, the amount of which will depend upon the level of job you accomplish and the enemy you fight. If you have properties, these will also give you earnings. You have the option to place your money in the bank. When you do, the bank will deduct 10% of your deposit as fee. Though this percentage might equal to a large sum, there is also a benefit. If you place your money in the bank, you won't have to lose it when you fight or when you are attacked, so you'll be given the chance to save it for something you may want to buy, like a property.


The Hospital


As its name implies, the hospital is the place where you heal yourself. You will typically have a full health meter at the beginning of the game. But, as you fight enemies, your health reduces until you will not be able to fight again unless your health is restored. Over time, your health meter increases. But, if you want immediate healing, you can visit the hospital and pay to be able to restore you to full health.


The Godfather


The Godfather is your benefactor. You can exchange the reward points that you earn for certain things the godfather may offer, like extra mafia members or full refill in your health, stamina, or energy.


Energy Packs


These are packs that you can send to your mafia members and they can send to you everyday. When you receive an energy pack, your energy will increase by 25 percent. To get the most out of this, you need to use that energy in performing jobs because the extra energy sent to you only lasts for 24 hours. After that number of hours, you lose any extra energy points that you were unable to use.


These are just some of the things that you need to familiarize yourself with if you are to fully understand Mafia Wars. Once you find your way around, it would be easier to advance to higher levels.
