How to maintain IP Ports and it's working in detail.

                              IP Ports


This article describes ports, how they are used, and how they work.


Ports were developed so that network devices and computers could accept data from multiple sources over the same IP address. Here is a simple example. Your TV service is the Internet, and the ports are your channels. You have many forms of entertainment, news, and information available through many different channels. Lets say 9xM is channel 85 on your TV. The same is true for web servers that run on port 80. Every port has a special purpose just as each channel serves a different television program. While you only have 1 cable TV subscription, you can still receive multiple channels.

Two main types of ports: TCP and UDP. TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol. UDP stands for User Data Protocol. Some programs on your computer will use TCP ports to communication and other may use UDP. It is important to know the difference between how the two operation. See TCP vs. UDP for an illustrated example.

There are 65,535 TCP and UDP ports available to transmit data with. Ports 0-1023 are reserved for common use. These ports are assigned by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbering Authority). This means, that every port from 0-1023 will be the same on every system. For example, let's say a server in New York is using port 80, and so is a server Texas. Because port 80 falls in the range of reserved ports, we know both servers are using port 80 for HTTP connections. Viewing a list of known ports can help you determine which type of connections are present on your machine.
Computer or network devices often "listen" on certain ports. For example, a server running web, FTP, and Telnet services will listen on a port for each. Port 80 for web, 21 for FTP, and 23 for telnet. The act of listening simply means the machine is waiting for another device to connect to it. See the illustration below:



Notice that the server is listening for 3 ports over a single IP address (192.168.0.15). It is possible for multiple devices to connect to a single port. Meaning, a telnet server may accept over 100 simultaneous connections to port 23. Once a connection is established it is know as a "session."

hacking windows administration password

Changing Administrator Password using Command Prompt(CMD) A fter reading this post, you’ll be able to change your and anyone’s Administrator account password in windows OS(7,XP AND OLDER VERSION)  without asking him the previous one. Usually, for changing the passwords, we go to User Accounts in Control Panel and then option for changing the passwords. But windows doesn’t permit us to do so, till we enter the previous password. So, it’s clear that we can’t change the password from this method. Because, the current password is also required here, which we don’t know. But, the same thing can become possible, if perform the same task through Windows Command Prompt(CMD). In this method, we are not prompted to enter the current/old password. But for that, we first need to be logged in as an Administrator (see step 2 below), unless you will be shown an error message. So, I don’t want you to get any type of error, that’s why I was focussing on this point. ...

How to hack anyone System in seconds and Create viruses

G et some knowledge about virus... What is Virus ?  A computer virus is a program or piece of code that is loaded onto your computer without your knowledge and runs against your wishes. All computer viruses are man-made. A simple virus that can make a copy of itself over and over again is relatively easy to produce. Even such a simple virus is dangerous because it will quickly use all available memory and bring the system to a halt. An even more dangerous type of virus is one capable of transmitting itself across networks and bypassing security systems   Create Virus on Notepad : It is very easy to create a virus on notepad   H ow to open notepad follow these steps 1.

Difference Between TCP Vs. UDP and it's working.

                             TCP vs. UDP T his article describes how TCP and UDP work, the difference between them, and why you would choose one over the other. O verview TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is the most commonly used protocol on the Internet. The reason for this is because TCP offers error correction . When the TCP protocol is used there is a "guaranteed delivery." This is due largely in part to a method called "flow control" . Flow control determines when data needs to be re-sent, and stops the flow of data until previous packets are successfully transferred . This works because if a packet of data is sent, a collision may occur . When this happens, the client re-requests the packet from the server until the whole packet is complete and is identical to its original. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) ...
