Hi folks,

I was thinkng about learning a little bit about buffer overflows and trying out some examples. I had no idea that it is so freaking hard to get a free Linux Shell.
Has maybe someone one to offer? I would just need a little bit space to save my files and to cmpile them with gcc.
Really nothing big. Would that be possible?

Yep, it's possible You can get a free shell with the gnu blablabla... ...zZzZzZz... If you want, i can give you some urls about buffer and format overflows.

See ya

if you know some good pages please tell me. I have tried at least 3 times to get into buffer overflows but I always gave up on it.

Well, i dont know where in the hell are my bookmarks, but i have recovered some good introductory stuff:

You have some introductory stuff with lots of examples at netsearch-ezine (in spanish!), if you feel so crazy as to read it in spanish... try it. www.netsearch-ezine.com

See you and good luck with that overflows

Hi
There is a really good tutorial:

It's not totally free, but you have to pay the guys one time 10 in your own currency for a lifetime shell.
It has compiler tools, lots of libraries, webtools and a lot of more things.
It was completely free once, but they changed it, because it became the favorite place of remote hackers.

Well, read the story and policies at the site. I have found it myself after a lot of searching.

And I will probably offer a very limited number of free linux shells as soon as my linux box is up.

Or you could just download Knoppix and use the Linux Shell on your own computer...
