    • 'sploding a computer system cause they needed an elite hacker... or something

      5 5 1384

      so Im supposed to be permanently putting certain computer systems out of order, either by resets or viruses.....

      how the heck do i do that?

      Usually I'd just ignore that, expcet its the only mission that ever shows up anymore...

    • First, let's go the virus route. If you have a copy of Revelation, this mission type is fairly easy – assuming, of course, that you can get in. Remember to go through a trusted system, and have the administrator's voice ready.

      Access the fileserver. Copy Revelation to their drives.
      Leave the fileserver.
      Access the console.
      Type the following:

      cd usr
      run Revelation
      

      This will obliterate the server in question, without any more work on your part.

      If you don't have a copy, then ignore the drives.
      Access the console, and type:

      cd usr
      delete
      cd ..
      cd sys
      delete
      shutdown
      

      Note that it is not necessary to wait for the commands to finish executing before entering a new one.

      Still, Revelation is faster.

      Remember to delete your logs...

    • Also, the mission won't be complete until a news item shows up that says that such-and-such a system has been hacked and destroyed. If you use Revelation, this will happen instantly. If you use the console delete commands, it takes a few hours (game time).

    • mkdir blah
      cd blah
      mkdir blah
      mv blah ../

      But only if the server runs 10.2 or earlier.

    • I find that sudo srm -rf / is much more effective.
