Paul, actually Netware 2.x through 4.x is quite easy to hack, as are most non-trusted UNIX boxes, and NT.

I will not post my technique for security reasons, as chances are 99.9% of the readers in this forum have no business knowing how to hack into a Netware server.

The procedure involves fooling Netware into thinking that you have just installed the server and that no security system has been established yet. Just after a Netware 2.x or 3.x server is installed, the Supervisor's password is null and you can log in with no restriction. Netware 4.x works slightly differently, but it also allows anyone to log in after the initial installation, since the installer is asked to enter a password for the Admin user.

The more complicated an operating system, the easier it is to crack.
