Indeed, it obviously depends on the OS you're operating from but if it's
a UNIX-like, i'd suggest you to get that great tool, from THC :
http://www.thc.org/download.php?t=r&d=login_hacker-1.1.tar.gz
It's a shellscript using minicom, and, as a shellcript, remains highly
configurable...

Enjoy.

Careful that you have a written contract with the company you're
war-dialing.  Otherwise, it's often a felony in many jurisdicitions and even
if you don't penetrate anything, can land you in some serious hot water.

Assuming you DO have a contract with the company, there is one called THC
that would be worth a try.  It used to be hosted by a University, but it's
since been taken off their site IIRC.   It has a scripting language that
will let you script password attacks and I believe can even import a 'words'
or 'names' file if you choose.

Subject: Brute-forcing Dial-up password after war-dial




After a war dial, I obtained a list of phone numbers that responded with a
carrier (PPP or other). Is there a free tool out there that bruteforce
Dial-up ID and passwords on the numbers identified by the war dial? I know
that PhoneSweep does that, but is there a workaround / free program to do
that?
