Surfing over the internet I found an interesting article on How to become a Hacker.
I will not comment on it … another way to tell people what to do to become a hacker
(should be Chacker instead of Hacker i think..hehe).
Erm, and of course someone should tell to the author what Cracker means…
Q: How can I get the password for someone else’s account?
A: This is cracking. Go away, idiot.
Yea, sure …. cracking …IMHO its still hacking

1Welcome to FG :)
Just a small tip, to add your link to “Visit Site” besides the “Email Entry” link under your article you need to click on “Customize the display of this page.” at the very bottom of the page when you’re writing an article.
Select “Custom” from the 3 radio buttons and select the “Keywords” Check-box then click on the Save Button.
Underneath the Excerpt field, there will now be a “Keywords” field and you can add it there.
If you have any other doubts feel free to e-mail me at griffith.pt {AT} gmail.com .

2I just scanned the article, but seems like a whole lot of:
If you don’t know Unix–learn it.
If you don’t know Java–learn it.
If you don’t know HTML–learn it.
If you don’t know English–learn it.
No shit.

5No, the author knows exactly what the terms hacker and cracker mean. If you had read the page carefully, you would have come across this:
“The basic difference is this: hackers build things, crackers break them.”
And if I were you, I might think twice about attempting to correct Eric Raymond, one of the most important individuals in the open source movement since before the term “open source” existed.

6I’m sorry, but I’ve been starting to wonder whether FG should be “Forever Script-kiddie” instead.
You may be new, but trying to make some witty conjecture (”Yea, sure …. cracking”) just shows you don’t have a clue.

8“Q: I’m having problems with my Windows software. Will you help me?
A: Yes. Go to a DOS prompt and type “format c:”. Any problems you are experiencing will cease within a few minutes.”
That’s my favorite part of FAQ, lol

9The main diff between cracker and hacker is that cracker breaking into applications (games,shareware) and remove or patching the code to make program (trial,cd protections,HASP.. etc) fully work, and it have no connections with hackers which breaks into systems (mostly unix/linux/windows) using security holes.
Thats my opinion.

10cracker = robbie coltrain(not spelt right I know)
how to become a hacker? I think thats just silly to the true g33kery out there everyone knows a hacker is a programmer. so standard…
to the old hackers you should *want* to become a hacker it just happens it part of the need for knowledge its weird thing these days all the info on systems is well hard to get hold of and crap.
I used to read all that cause I was interested….

11As mentioned by others, The article is referring to Hacking, as in the creation of good ideas and code. NOT breaking into systems, cracker is the term used by the “hacking” (hacking as in the article) community, to refer to what most people call hackers.
Summary: Poster did not read article, or is a fool.

12Poster is a fool even if he didn’t read the article. Who would post something and make factual statments based on content he did not read. What a dork!

23S.o.a.d, it depends what you want to script (what’s it’s purpose).
There’s PHP which is generally used for web-based applications, but is also a command line language. Perl which can be for web-based CGI’s or command line use, or even graphical environments (eg: using Qt or GTK).
The easiest are shell scripts, using for example the Bash shell, whcih is similar to a batch script, but is a lot more advanced.
If you are familiar with the linux/UNIX command line, and know how to pipe/redirect output you can create some really nice shell scripts.
eg:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
# above line is path to shell to use, and must be on 1st line
# this script will tell you how many files are in a directory
# set the variable DIR to $1 (which is the 1st command line argument)
DIR=”$1″
# list the directory contents and pipe the output to wc (word count, with option -l to count lines)
# and save to the variable NUMBER, note the backtick (`) character to execute the commands
NUMBER=`ls $1 | wc -l`
# I was taught to use braces ({}) when using multiple variables on a line
echo “There are ${NUMBER} items in ${DIR}”
# otherwise it could just be: echo “There are $NUMBER items in $DIR”
