It's cool but not as cool as finding the actual bios password. With that you can bypass the USB boot lock and not risk them taking your laptop and finding all kinds of modified crap on your hard drive. Lucky for us they had 3.0 ports so it wasn't actually terrible to run an operating system off a flash drive.

The way I got it was the same way, through pxe boot. They use the network boot to quickly "flash" and configure windows onto machines so they can just hook a bunch up and press the go button. What I noticed over the years is that they used to have no bios password on computers then they added one. So I figured it was part of this imaging process and they had a utility to auto config the bios.

The imaging is done through MDT and the binary they used over network boot was pxe linux which booted Lite touch. They had a password on the network boot prompt but since it's all done over tftp it was as easy as grabbing the config file from the pxe linux directory and cracking the hash over night. (You could also just reverse the binary and bypass the password check but it was 7 characters long so I didn't bother)

It would show you it was downloading Lite touch through a directory after that. So I used tftp once again to grab that image and opened it, inside was a config file which contained username and password to an elevated account that could download the rest of the garbage from the imaging servers and finish the job. I used samba on the imaging servers ip and inside there you could find the bios config utility. Right next to it was the config for that which contained the password. Sweet!

And from there you could do more interesting things like finding the domain controller password/domain admin. What's cool about my school laptops is they have all kinds of ports open that the admins use to control and monitor students. Have the domain admin? You're essentially a school administrator and have full access to peoples hdd.. yeah not so secure. Of course I kept this privilege to small pranks on my friends. No way was I about to get expelled for that crap lol.

And I like your ambition. It's fun to do this hacky crap, so never stop learning.
