]TYPE ABT PHANTOM ACCESS

NOTES:
------

This is the REAL Phantom Access.

If you think you're going to boot it
and use it, think again. I've been up
half the night reading this shit, my
brain hurts and I still dont understand
how to make it work. Figure on spending
a whole day with this before you can
even hack something.

It's really cool, but fucking HARD to
use.

I hate PRODOS and I tried to convert
the miscdisk to DOS so that you could
TYPE or TLIST it, but even when I take
DOS off the disk, it still won't fit.
Side 2 has 0 blocks space left and I
dunno if it's just my copy of convert,
but it doesn't convert shit, except
MLI errors. Somehow the DOS versions
end up being longer then the PRODOS
versions, so I had to leave it alone.

The miscdisk is really a mess, cause
whoever (the uncredited guy) edited
out all the pathnames and figured out
which messages he wanted to use, cut
them all up so you can't tell who is
replying to what. It's all really
confusing. It's interesting, but real
hard to understand who is being replied
to, cause some of the replies aren't
there and some of the messages that
start the replies that are there, arent
there either. And some of the messages
are cut up so that parts are missing.
I guess this was done so it would all
fit on 2 sides, cause there aren't any
blocks free.

Also if you have a hard drive, what's
really cool is that all the programs
exec PAX files after they finish, so
you can do stuff life put them on
different volumes or have a main menu
on your hard drve run Phantom Access
and then have Phantom Access put you
back at the main menu when you're done
using it. I've tried changing them
around with my own drives and found no
problems with it.

I also wanted to put a title page on
it, since I dont think it got
distribution so it couldnt hurt to get
some credit, but there isn't even room
for that, all the sides are filled up.

Please pass this file around with the
disks, so I get some credit for my
trouble and other people understand
whats going on.

The best thing to do is print out the
phantom access docs and try to figure
it out.

]TYPE ABOUT PHANTOM ACCESS 2

After all this time Phantom Access is ou
t.

I have a few problems with that.


(1) Only the code hack module is out. Or
 that's all I've found so far.

(2) There are 3 different versions out.
2 don't work right and don't have
    features that the other one does. Th
e one that I think was the release
    copy instead of beta, is 4 sides lon
g.

    This version is cool. It has code ut
ilities which is really nice. Plus
    the hacker itself does things that n
o other hacker can do. It makes all
    current hackers like Schweitzer, Meg
aphreak, Gnu Hacker, etc, look like
    so much shit. It is great for people
 who box too, because it does all
    that. GET IT!

It's like this:

Phantom Access a1<335>#cee5
Phantom Access a2<260>#7778
Phantom Access m1<347>#5c9f
Phantom Access m2<356>#f76c


(3) Dead Lord is a rodent! All that cred
it and titles for a beta ware which
    doesn't work?!!?!!?

                        ~`~  Battle of the Hackers  ~`~
                        -------------------------------

         Some people have written Applecat program reviews files, so I thought
I'd write a hacker review file. I know there are 500 different hackers out
there, but I'm only going to compare Phantom Access and MegaPhreak because
between the two of them, there is no function that can't be done.

         Reading through the Phantom Access docs, there are many functions
present which I personally can't get to work because I don't know what the
hell they are! There are still disks and docs missing for Phantom Access and
then there's the 6.6 version which does god knows what. I'm only reviewing the
5.7K copy I have (The version distributed by The Ripper) because 1. If I don't
know how to make it work, I can't review it and 2. It's not fair to compare
features that most people don't have access to.

         The only other thing that bears mentioning is that I'm reviewing the
Ripper's 5.7K version of PA and the latest update of MegaPhreak. PA5.7K is 2
years old and MegaPhreak is about 2 months old. They are both the only hackers
which are really "programmable".

_____________________________________________________|________|________________

            Overall performance on a scale of 1 to 10:   10              5

         Performance is sometimes relative to what is needed. For example the
Phantom Access docs are much more extensive, neatly formatted and print out to
a printer in perfect formatting. The MP docs are much shorter, not as neatly
formatted and don't print out anywhere without a word processor. But they both
get a rating of 10, because the rating is relevent to what is needed. MP doesnt
even really need docs, so anything is good and Ubik did a good job describing
all his functions. Without docs you'd be lost with PA, but Lord Digital did an
excellent job with the docs which are complete, offer examples and anwer any
questions that come. EXCEPT: where are the rest of the docs dammit!

         "NO*" means that Phantom Access CAN do it, but not without the
System Editor which I don't have, or without further explanation of what needs
to be done to make files like rotation systems(?). If ANYONE has it, PLEASE
upload the system editor so PA can be customized, also the rest of the docs on
C1 and C2 that explain the other files and how to make them!


         As you can see it's hard to compare them exactly. They are both
"programmable" but that's not really true with megaphreak. It might be more
accurate to say that Megaphreak has a lot of options that can be turned on or
off and places where it can dial a number, but it can't do ANYTHING at any time
and some of it's commands are redundant:

S: dial service
D: dial destination
#: dial number
.: wait 1 second
:: wait 2 seconds

         While Phantom Access let's you dial any # anywhere at any time with
a single command "D". In dial mode you put a "@" for each second, or just a
seperate command called T, that waits Time for the # of seconds following it.

         Mphreak is the 1987 logical progression of the original Cat Hacker 3.7
and adds option after option to the "standard" hacker layout. Phantom Access is
hacking from a totally different angle: the hacker is a series of subroutines
that control the modem and you can put them together in any order you want to.
Almost like a very limited programming langauge that let's you control the Cat.
The later versions are supposed to be an actual language.

         When redundant commands are removed mphreak has only 5:
Dial
Wait
Wait for dial tone
Take audio picture
Test code

         Mphreak could have been much smoother and functioned more like PA
without so many redundant commands if Ubik had thought it through more
completely.

         On the other side: Phantom Access is hard to use, takes time to learn,
and nothing is automatic. With Mphreak you have a hacker like all the other
hackers you've ever used, so you can boot it up and use it, with Phantom Access
something as basic as pick up of the phone is not automatic and you have to
spend a lot of time learning it's structure before you can take advantage of it
and use it to it's limits.

         When you boot megaphreak you get a familliar style of menu. When you
go to the start hack section of Phantom Access you get a series of questions
that take little input from the keyboard because most of the information has
to already exist on a file that has to be made with another program. When many
people first ran Phantom Access they thought it didn't work at all because they
didn't read the docs and just tried to run it. With mphreak you can do it and
start hacking, with Phantom Access you can't. You need to understand it.
Mphreak didn't even have docs until the very last revision, if you didn't have
docs for Phantom Access and didn't have example "sub-modules" you might as well
delete it because you'll never get it to work.

         It all depends on what you need to do. Phantom Access delivers with
more flash and bang, but if all you need to do is hack your local 950 to get
codes to cat-fur's (like was said in apple cat software reviews which first
reviewed phantom access), then you don't need PA, or even Megaphreak. Gnu
Hacker will suffice nicely. If you do use PA or MP they're about the same on
local lines since PA can't be customized or sped up without the system editor
(damn that makes me mad!), when hacking complicated or non-standard systems,
PA totally leaves MP in the dust.

"MegaPhreak has been designed to be the most sophisticated hacker available
today. If you can't do it with megaphrfak it can't be done!" That's from the
Mphreak docs and not very true. There are many features that Mphreak lacks
that Phantom Access can do and there are features that Mphreak has, that
Phantom Access can't do in it's present state.

"Cases whre you would benefit from modications involve oddball situations
which should not exist to begin with. i.e. call waiting, 3-way calling, or
other 'features' that certain idiots insist on adding to their modem
dedicated lines. In any  case 1 line for - next loops take care of this and
can be linked together under their own heading: options for the terminally
stupid."

"If the features you wish to implement are not built into the system editor's
linkage routines, chances are they're useless. Many people write features that
are present to satisfy their own neurosis while serving no actual purpose in
avoiding the pitfalls of whatever technology you are up against." That's from
Phantom Access and I get the feeling it's applicable to a few "features" of
Mphreak. I don't know but I personally find some of them useless. I could be
wrong and they could be present In PA too in the "system editor's linkage
routines" but I don't know because I don't have the fucking system editor or
the linkage routines! All I have is the "generic" 5.7K setup.

         Within a few weeks all the new hackers and all the older hackers being
revised (if they are) will probably copy some of the functions found in Phantom
Access, so the choice of hackers will be larger. Myself, I'm changing over from
MP 2.3f, to Phantom Access. If this version leaked out, then the rest of it has
to arrive sometime also. When all the hackers that copy PA's functions come out
they still won't be as versatile unless they totally copy the PA design which
would be a waste of time presuming the System Editor comes out and lets you
make your own copies of PA. I also have more trust in what Lord Digital comes
up with as compared to the other people writing hackers. I've kept rumors and
reputations and everything but facts on programs sitting in front of me, out of
my reviews, but my faith leans toward LD's design over Ubik or anyone elses.

] TYPE WORKING WITH PHANTOM ACCESS

=======================================
      Written on April 9th, 1987
    By Shotgun Slayer for Club Zero
=======================================
Club Zero..................213-395-0221
=======================================

There's a place in the PA.DOCS where LD
says something like "A lot of the
features aren't totally obvious" that's
an understatement.

After spending a few hours with this
program, I've come to the conclusion
that there's nothing it can't do. In a
way its almost like AppleWorks or
something like that, you cane make
the program do anything you want it to
do by loading up different setups.

One of the features missing from PA is
bought up in msg.dump01 on the miskdisk
as having been added to later versions.
That feature is a easy way to change
volumes if you're running off a hard
disk. You need to go to load/save and
input new values and it's a pain in the
ass.

I dunno why PA execs quit files
instead of just running the programs,
I suspect it might be to let the
programs that are missing, hook into
the other programs. But with exec
files running them, you can make them
do anything without touching a key!

=======================================
As it comes on the disk, this is what
the exec files do:

PAX0 - This is just the startup pax
       that runs the screens and stuff.
       Unless you're going to move the
       main menu, title page and docs
       onto your hard disk (why?) you
       don't need to copy this over.

PAX1 - This program links to the file
       "PA.UTILS" The utility module.

PAX2 - This program links to the file
       "PA.EDITOR" The Sub-Module edit.

PAX3 - This program links to the file
       "PHANTOM ACCESS 5.7K" The hacker
       itself.

=======================================
PAX comes like this:

TEXT
POKE 44452,22
POKE 44605,21
POKE 44507,76
POKE 44508,224
FP

TEXT clears the screen from the previous program, the pokes restore a normal
catalog (PA removes sector count in it's catalogs) and the FP is obvious.

I'm running it off a sider on volume 9, so I changed my PAX to this:

FP
TEXT
POKE 1912,52
PR#7

The poke 1912 tells the Sider that it has 52 dos volumes, for some reason it
gets screwed up leaving Phantom Access if you don't tell it that. So just poke
however many dos volumes you have, into location 1912. PR#7 reboots my system
and brings me to the main menu.

=======================================
PAX0 I deleated
=======================================
PAX1 comes like this:

FP
RUN PA.UTILS

I changed mine to this:

FP
RUN PA.UTILS
11C
719
X
4

You need to keep the FP in there or it will crash for some reason. After it
enters PA.UTILS the 11C take it through to the change drive section, change
it to slot 7, drive 1, volume 9 (which is where I put PA), the X exits from
that section and the 4 brings it back to the main menu with the right volume
slot and drive intact without any keypresses from me.

=======================================
PAX2 comes like this:

FP
RUN PA.EDITOR

I changed mine to this:

FP
RUN PA.EDITOR
21C
719
X
4

This does the same thing as the other file, only uses different keys for the
different setup of the editor.

=======================================
PAX3 comes like this:

FP
RUN PHANTOM ACCESS 5.7K

I changed mine to this:

FP
RUN PHANTOM ACCESS 5.7K
7
1
9
1MCI

That runs the hacker, puts in my slot, drive, volume, tells it to start the
hack and load sub-module MCI. You could even take it all the way through the
menu's so you wouldn't hit 1 key and it would start hacking. or part of the
way through, if you use the same defaults a lot of the time, like all the way
through to the "dial-through" prompt.

=======================================

The reason that the #'s are smashed
together in some places and have a c/r
after them in other places, is because
the programs GET in some locations and
take INPUT in others. So make sure that
you don't put a c/r after a command in
a place where the programs are GETting
or you'll screw it up.

=======================================

Hope that helped someone!

]TYPE PHANTOM ACC: 4/15/87

=======================================

There are messages going around now
saying that you can pick up ANY side
1 (or a1) of Phantom Access and use it
with the other 3.

This is BULLSHIT!!! You can't do it and
it won't work, I've tried it and I've
even compared the files.

They are not the same thing! The disks
that Dead Lord passed around contain
programs that are as much as 50 sectors
SHORTER then their counterparts on the
offical version. This isn't because one
is compiled and the other isn't, because
they both are! (compiled).

You NEED to get the entire 4 sides that
number a1,a2,m1,m2. Or the docs won't
print right, the options won't work
right and a lot of other things will be
fucked up and you won't be happy!

=======================================

I got Phantom Access from The Ripper.
If you want to contact him just leave
him mail on one of the boards he lists
at the end of his "about" file.

This is the story with PA:

6.6 is I dunno what because I don't
have it, Ripper doesn't have it and
Ripper's contacts don't have it. So
I don't know what the fuck it is.

5.7K is made a LOT clearer if you
read the miscdisk messages. 5.7K is
the name used for a whole bunch of
programs that are all different
versions except signiture bytes on
the inside.

The (maybe not THE but one of them at
least) RELEASE version of 5.7K is 6
sides long. The miscdisk's ARE NOT
part of the series (duh). Some people
keep asking that: what the fuck you
think? read them and figure it out. NO
they aren't part of the series, which
means 4 sides are still missing. Those
are the mainframe scanner, the system
editor and more docs. There is NO
scanner (for carriers) in the 5.7 series
AT ALL. I don't know why he could make
a mainframe scanner work on simpler
systems but not the carrier scanner, I
guess it has a lot of features that
other scanners dont have, cuz the
ones I see are like 25 sectors long,
so it couldn't be like those. I'm just
guessing about the third program (call
Wraith) from what I'm told and from
what I read on the PA disks, but it
doesn't sound like a carrier scanner,
so if its not then what is a "scanner"?
and what else does it do?

To recap that: 4 sides are left to be
put out, Ripper is working on it, his
sources have ALL the sides, Matrix
Murderer has all the sides and some of
the people ragged on have all the sides
too. (ragged on by MM) The Ripper is
now getting death threats and general
harassment from "Federal Agent" a guy
Matrix Murderer ragged on in the misc
disk.

Just read the miscdisk it makes life a
lot eaisier for everyone and unconfuses
a lot of stuff.

]TYPE PHANTOM ACC: FROM FED AGENT

                                                                 April 15, 1987

     Since "The Ripper" deemed it necessary  to  respond  to  me  in  an "open"
reply, I felt he merited the same treatment.

     You don't  know me,  I don't want to know you and this SHORT file is being
written to prevent further misunderstanding before a relatively  minor incident
is blown out of proportion as seems to happen so often these days.

     It thrills  the bejesus out of  me that Phantom Access sides a1 and a2 are
now in the hands of the unwashed peasants of the  modem community,  more than I
can begin  to say.  This is NOT about Phantom Access, its about a little remark
The Ripper saw fit to make at my expense.

     The Ripper is a 15 year old pud whose life isn't over,  I've only  added a
little entertainment  for him  these last few weeks. He seems to feel otherwise
and labors under the delusion that he has  been terribly hurt and  maimed by my
little jokes.  If someone were trying to hurt you, you'd know it by now.

     The reason  I picked  on YOU is rather simple: "Your" release of the disks
contained some  idiotic remark like "Rag  on these  losers" and  then listed my
handle.   I don't  care if Matrix Murderer made it and not you, because I don't
know Matrix Murderer from a hole in the wall, so  for all  I know  you might be
him.

     While "Dead  Lord's"  entry  was  no  more intelligent than yours, he only
repeated the delusions under which he is laboring, to the  public.   If Andrew,
Chase, Pete,  Asif, Yuri  and any  other permutation of the 212/718 crowd don't
know any better, I can't expect Dead Lord to come up with  anything better than
that  which his  "sources" tell him.  Unless he's consulting his local psychic,
he couldn't possibly do any "better" than he did.

     The fact  is that  it doesn't  concern me, I could  give a  rat's ass what
people think, until I am dragged into it. Especially  when I'm  dragged into it
in such  a blatantly  stupid and  offhand way.  "Rag  on these  losers"   I'm a
loser because I didn't pack up the disks and send them to  50 cat-fur's?   Fuck
off.

     I'm being  very  high-handed  and  arrogant  right  now, Mr. Digital would
comment that writing in that manner denotes  insecurity  on  my  part,  but Mr.
Digital probably won't be reading this and if he is, he too may fuck himself if
it doesn't suit him.

     What I want to clear up is the remark I made about  not liking  LD. I have
nothing against  LD as  I hope  he will remember if  he is reading this.  For a
long time  I thought  Mr. Digital  was all right.   Except discovering religion
(or a  reasonable facsimile thereof) has had the opposite effect on LD, then it
does for most people.  Instead of  gaining  new  reverence  for  life,  he lost
whatever reverence he might have had for it, making it all right to hurt anyone
he wants to for the most trivial reasons.

     One such person is someone I personally cared about and  was trying to get
"closer" to  at the  time Mr.  Digital was  in my corner of the world. In blows
Mr. Digital with his Porsche, his  money,  his  perfect  manners  and his newly
resurfaced  good  looks.    Two  days later it looks to my "future" friend like
Prince Charming (chaotic evil version, but  Prince Charming's  are hard to come
by in  the real  world) has come to town to sweep her off her feet and take her
to a life of leisure and 24 hour good times.

     You can't argue with someone who has delusions like that, all it  takes is
one  honest  question  to  Patrick: "Do  you love  her?" to get a laugh for  an
answer.  Not a yes or a no,  a laugh  in  the  face. Maybe he didn't know it at
the time, but that hurt, me as well as her 4 days later when he took off again.
You can't tell a person (girl) that her dream come  true doesn't care about her
in the least, when he looks like everything she wants.

     I don't  hold it  against him, because maybe he didn't even know it at the
time and thought that she understood it didn't  mean anything.   That  might be
true,  but  I  don't  think  he  would have cared anyway.  The only thing he is
capable of  feeling  love  for  are his  "real"  friends  (not  questioning his
masculinity, I  mean love  in the brotherly sense)  and his pets, both of which
rank higher than anyone else.

     As I hope you can see, this really has nothing to do  with Phantom Access,
Mr.  Ripper.    My  dislike  of  LD is not on the "professional" level, I don't
question his abilities or creative talent, I simply hate his  attitude and have
some problems with him personally.

     For future  reference Mr.  Ripper: That space before you start a paragraph
is called an "indent" usually 5  spaces long, though most  people just  hit tab
and leave  it at  whatever their word processor sets for tab.  Grammar is not a
disease and spelling won't hurt you.

     I've spoken with  Cereal Killer  today,  he  says  he  will  be  writing a
definitive  file  that  will answer  any questions anyone has regarding Phantom
Access, whatever happened to Lord Digital and what  certain options  do and how
to make  them work.  CK is a member of S_R, Mr. Digital's organization and well
qualified to field any questions people may have. I  don't know  what form this
will take, because I know CK and know he isn't good at being serious and I know
that he doesn't think that highly  of the  modem community  either.   I believe
he's going to do it for the sole reason of explaining things, once and for all,
so some idiot with no information, or half-information (like the late, lamented
author of  "fall of the modem  world") won't feel some crazed desire to fill up
additional sides of disks with fictitious and untrue heresy.   This should come
out when CK gets back to NY some time in late April.



                                                       Your friend,
                                                    The Federal Agent



]TYPE PHANTOM ACC: FROM DEAD LORD

    Firstly to Ripper: your entire file
was a plea to FA to pick on me instead
of you.  I have no fear that with my
friends help I can protect myself from
any harrassment, except in the most
extreme circumstances.  This was not an
extreme circumstance.  My resentment
however stems from the fact that you
act as if you know me, while you don't.
You have no knowledge of any of my
motives in releasing my version of
PA.  My sole reason was to let people
see the title page I'd made.  My
friends and I found it very humorous.
    As for you, FA, I suspect you are
Joe, Black Death to me of course, or
one his clones.  I still think that
all the things said about Pat is
nonsense and just a game, I don't care
, but it is very hard to take
seriously any of this stuff, especially
based on Patrick's past history (ie:
The Sigmund project w/ Asif and others)
  I don't claim to have any "sources"
of Patrick info, such "sources" are not
desirable.  I got Phantom Access from
Yuri The Plague who I don't think very
highly of at this point(I'm not worried
that he will read this, as he just
buried his modem in his back yard;
honestly).
    I don't care that "itz only a
beta version dood!!!", I don't use
it and can't understand why its so
desirable.  If the rest of it
comes out, fine, let it.  If I
need to ASCII hack something(rare)
I set up a UNIX with cu on it to do
it for me, not set up my Apple to tie
up my phone for three days.
    To conclude, if the modem kids want
to keep up the Lord Digital cult and
bow down to the great god P-t, fine, I
have no burning need to be its high
priest.  I am no expert on Pat, and I
hesitate to comment on what is probably
Pat's mindfuck with pirates.  I DO
maintain accounts on a few pirate
boards, but please don't take my posts
in response to the discussion on the
'koolest area kode d00d!' as anything
but facetious.

Ascii Hacker, The Screamer, and The Watcher are total assholes and are
responsible for the premature release of Phantom Access 5.7k into the hands
of people (the entire pirate community and the FBI) who have no brains and/or
ability to even use the program in the first place, and this rank goes out to
some of the k-ra[>est toilet-breath cat-fur moles in New York City.

                      These pussy-faced cunt-rags are:

                Ascii Hacker -  who has incredibly bad breath.
                The Screamer - who is a total douch bag.
                The Watcher -  a real moron in his own right.
                Blue Knight - (who gave a copy to Cruse Control) Both morons.
                The Ranger - for being himself. He's a federal agent.
                The Mirage - who thinks he's so cool...another dick-head.

]TYPE PHANTOM ACC: MORE BLATHERING

Shotgun Slayer.................04/20/87
=======================================

This is getting ridiculous.  First
Dead Lord has relabelled his disk as
the real a1 and is uploading it around
with the Ripper's 3 sides, without any
credit.

Now The Plague is going off in some
other file about how everyone is a
dickhead and a loser and saying that
PA 5.7k direct dials the destination #
as a bug.

Jeez, 5.7K the one The Ripper put out,
the real one, works fine.  The one Dead
Lord put out has bugs.  I've repeated
that over 20 times.  The Plague is being
a dildo, ragging everyone, when Dead
Lord says TP is the one who leaked it to
begin with, then saying it direct dials
the destination # to scare people.

IT DOESN'T! First of all there is no
place for a "destination #"! It's just
another D"string" command like any
number of other D commands that can be
put in a sub-module.  Even assuming he
wasn't full of shit, who cares?  What
happens when you direct dial a long
distance # with no 1 in front of it? You
get a recording saying "please dial 1".
Where does the 1 magically come from
that would be put in front of the
destination #, even when the program
doesn't know the destination # from
any other D command?  Finally even
assuming all that was true, what is
the destination you're dialing to? A
termination # that doesn't supervise
(it's free) you could direct dial the
# all day and it still wouldn't show
up on your phone bill.  If people read
the docs, they'd realize that.

my, but this is getting stupider with
each passing day.  When will Federal
Agent come in with another threat or
rag. Jesus, I can even see why people
don't put out programs for public use
anymore, it's ridiculous.
