jipman 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 I do hope you know what hacking is.A hacking challenge is a (in my challenges case) a imaginary website that you, as challenger must hack. The site of course has flaws built in so it's not impossible to hack it. See them as a puzzle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ViRuaL 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2005 I'm not sure what you're saying... Look in that section on the forums, also try http://www.hackthissite.org/. That site has multiple web hacking challenges, as well as realistic web page hacking, and program hacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other than that there's hackthissite as mentioned above. Just google for "Hacking challenge" and you'll find plenty of such sites... most of them are fun, some plain stupid and in some you get to put up a real test of your wits.

Trojan 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 I'm not very familiar with hacking myself. All i know how to do is view sources of webpages... but sometimes thats just enough. I think I'll try learntohack.org Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
optykal 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2005 Hackthissite is a good place to visit, there are a lot of good tutorials to be found on all kinds of things there. One of the things I was having trouble with was tutorials on tools such as OllyDbg and other debuggers/dissassemblers. Just the other day I managed to luck myself into finding this site:https://tuts4you.com/index.phpThe site is only new and still a work in progress, but it has quite a few tutorials and tools that can be helpful. If you have done a few challenges on other sites that involve cracking, its more than likely that you would have realised that using OllyDebug is almost essential. Anyway, check the site if you are interested in this kinda stuff. I found it helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

optykal 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 That guide to htaccess was a good read. I picked up a lot of interesting things that I was unaware of. I had only used .htaccess files to block off sections of my sites so that people couldn't access them without typing in a password. After reading that, it seems that there are a lot of ways that you can use htaccess to your advantage. The topics on hotlinking and blocking bots were very interesting. Thanks for the links Nate.
