You probably want to focus on brute forcing appletalk logins. Unless
of course their are other services enabled.

Your next avenue of attack might be java/javascript via browser or
email client.

Keep in mind their is no shell, you might be able to exploit a
vulnerability in an email client to execute an applescript via
java/javascript.

I have been asked to test a system that is running MacOS-9. From what I
know of (through checking the "wall closets" on my way out) they have a
Cisco PIX-520 Firewall with a DMZ setup... Does anyone have any experience
with penetrating Mac systems or can anyone point me to any resources that
might assist me? Thank you.
