Post your questions/comments/hints here.

I am sure I know what this challenge is about, but what's for the correct "secret Dharma network" name/page? I tried many combinations but still cannot get the correct one. I though it will be about checking the "dharma" string in the name/page, but now it seems a little bit harder to find the right one

Remember that this is an exploit challenge.

no guessing game here

dalfor is correct. If you cant find what you need then exploit it in another way.

[hideaway]

Yeah, I realized that immediately after dalfor's post. I am thankful for that

But still don't know how to get further with this "type" of exploit, even I have already solved some similiar challenges in the past. Maybe I will get something later, I will see...

Edit: Ok I am taking back, I overlooked something. Now it seems much more interesting challenge than I thought at the beginning

[smutley]

Should it be obvious what to enter, or is it a matter of trying everything until I get the exact syntax?

Also, I tried to enter a folder called p*******f**** and when I didn't enter a correct userid and password, I was told that my attempt was logged. Is this also part of the challenge, or did I do something wrong?

cheers

Greetings smutley. I think the last time we crossed paths was on hackquest all of those years ago

You do not have to guess the name no.. it is something a little more.... unorthodox

Feel free to PM me I would rather give you hints this way than spoil something for somebody on the forum

Also I would be interested to know which directory you found. I do not remember this challenge well without prompts, so either you found something relating to a totally different challenge or its something i forgot about

PM me please anyway I would like to help you out

regards,

sabretooth

BUMP - just tried this challenge. yes the folder is a good way

if you found this part then you managed the referrer part

hope this helps.
