Canning is using homemade equipment to tap into TeleCo cans and do whatever you wish. When you tap into a line, you are on an extension of that line. No calls you make while canning can be traced back to your home phone number. It's a good idea to take your phone off the hook, and let it go dead before you go canning, though, or else you might just be ripping yourself off. Tools you'll need: A set of screwdrivers (both regular and phillips in several sizes). A pair of cutters. A pair of wire strippers. A pair of needle-nose pliers. A few spools of low-resistance wire are indespensable. Something to carry all this in, like a backpack. A Beige Box, Lineman's handset, or the DLOC Box Where to find trunks: In my area (Cincy, Ohio), most trunks are in either the green boxes labeles "Cincinnati Bell". However, I have noticed some new boxes that are increasingly common. These are little silver rectangular boxes about 1 foot by 4 inches. In these, the trunks will be arranged as bellow: !-----------------------! ! 0 0 0 0 0 0! ! ! 1 2 3 4 5 6! ! ! 1 2 3 4 5 6 ! ! 0 0 0 0 0 0 ! ! With a mass of multi ! ! colored wire here and ! ---------!a pipe!-------- !going ! ! down ! ! ! Where the pipe goes, I don't know. (To hell I suspect) Anyway, the 1,2,3, etc are the terminals, and the 0's are the screws that hold each terminal in the box. To open this type of trunk, just bend the bottom side flanges out, push the cover up, and then pull out. The other type (the green things) are pretty much universal to all areas. To get into those bastards, you'll need a 7/16" socket and a ratchet. Just turn the security bolt 1/8 inch and viola! You're in. I have yet to see a green box that's got a padlock on it. I think the AT&T boys can't remember the combinations, but anyway, if you find one with a lock, just cut the lock and get rid of it. Once you're in: Once you're in, raise some hell! You have access to all the trunks in the box. You can call anywhere and it will show up on whoever's bill that terminal belongs to. I'm sure you can think of something to do. Start a conference if you want, just dial 0-700-456-1000 for alliance teleconferencing in Chicago. If you plan to be on that line for long, I'd advise you to switch it's line over to another line, so no one will pick up their fone and hear "Hey modem humper, did you ever hack out that telemail account?" They'd probably shot their pants! Just take the wire that is on the terminals already, and hook it up to another set of terminals. I'm not including directions on how to hook up the Beige Box / HandSet DLOC Box, because #1, that's in the DLOC Box file, the Biege Box file, and almost every other file on canning I've ever seen. Just remember, red-right-ring, or something like that. I figure if you've gotten this far, then you already know all that shit, though. Use some common sense, too. Don't go opening cans in broad daylight on main street. Look for trunks in alleys situated so that you can run a wire behind something and not be seen or heard. The spot I found is in an alley behind a Super-X Drug Store that's near 200 feet long, with the trunks adjacent to a dumpster, about 190 feet into the alley, with no windows in the buildings on either side. This type of setup is hard to find, so don't abuse it. Try to leave everything just like you found it, and don't destroy anything. We set up a conference on alliance that lasted for 4 hours one night, and they still don't know how it happened, or who did it. Just Be Careful. ++File By Prowler On 3/10/88++ Note: You might not be seeing too many files from me for a while. It seems someone followed my "trashing schools" file exactly, stole over $3000 worth of computer equiptment, and was busted. The police found printouts of a few text files I wrote, and supposedly suspect that a terrorist organization is at work. HA! I'll type in the article when I get a copy of it. It should be good for some laughs Call these fine systems: --------------------------------------- Phreak Pit.................609/646-5194 RipCo......................312/528-5020 Nebula.....................513/542-3135 Fuck 'em if they can't take a toke!
