    Ilici,
    
    One other item you might want to stress is the importance of securing an OS
    install, such as shutting off unnecessary services and applying the latest
    patches/SPs.  Setup a default Windows NT 4.0 install with IIS running and
    another default RedHat 6.x install and you have a good demonstration of that
    concept right there.  That would segway nicely into some of the items you
    had bulleted below.

    Hi all,
    
    We intend to make a short demonstration of hacking as
    part of a longer seminar with more than 100 IT
    managers, vice-presindents, and other high-level
    morons. The goal is to explain how easy is to hack an
    unsecured system or network.
    
    For them to understand and to realize how just only an
    unsecured computer could lead to compromise of an
    entire business we need to show some hacking examples
    real spectacular.
    
    So I need your help to make a top short list. I will
    insert here my humble opinion, but I expect more from
    all of you experienced pen-testers.
    
    1. Remote VNC install - GUI session on target machine
    2. BO2K or Subseven 
    3. Port redirection with fpipe - a firewall is not
    always enough
    4. Remote shell with netcat
    5. Null session - information gathering with no right
