Depends on the tool.  Worked with ToneLoc (rather trivially) when I used it.

Subject: War Dialling


Being a new member to this list I am not sure how much this topic has been
aired.  How ever I wonder if anyone has any ideas, or pointers on how they
would eliminate irrelevant numbers on a war dialling exercise.

If acme.com, a global company, has a very wide range of numbers how is it
best to seek out the numbers that are relevant to the IT departments.
Obviously there is the social engineering approach, however I am interested
in any other ideas.

Apologies if this has been discussed B4

Mick
