Hi,

 

I am new here and I have some questions about shutting down someone else computer.

1). the target computer must to connected to the same Wireless Net? Can I shutdown which I know the IP of but is connected via LAN?

2). I tried it like a prank in school but it says to me that I am not enabled ( access denied ); is there anyway to get the credential of administrator ( obviously not for school )?

3). is there anyway the possibility to make a IP become a static one?

Sorry in advance if my English is not perfect.

Great community.

Hopefully I am wrong and my apologies if I am but it sounds to me like you are a student and have possibly strayed onto this Forum in error?

Hi Kingnerd. Many of us are school network administrators. For all you know one of us is yours. We never give information that would allow anyone to compromise networks, whether they belong to a school or any other organisation, so I am afraid that you will find that you receive no useful answer to your question on here.

The fact remains that the information could be used to compromise a network and thus we would never discuss it online.

If you're interested in network/computer security, you can do can the following things to advance your learning:

 

1) Speak to your School's IT Dept (as already said by @Galway and others)

 

2) You could learn the basics of network/computer security in an isolated virtual environment in VirtualBox using the Microsoft Windows Eval images from Technet. (If your personal computer can run VM's) There are lots of tutorials online teaching about Group Policy, Active Directory etc etc. (That's mainly how I learnt about MS Server Software) Good places to look stuff up on is YouTube, Google, Technet Wiki and Edugeek. If your machine can't run any Virtual Machines, you can use the Technet Virtual Labs. Links for all the items mentioned have been linked below.

 

Resources: VirtualBox, Technet Eval Center *Requires Microsoft Live Account*, Technet Wiki, Microsoft Virtual Academy, Technet Virtual Labs

 

Disclaimer/Warning:The things you learn must not be used on your school's network. Only on your personal virtual network. You can serious trouble if you interfere with your school network.
