notice: you should search which type of md is it

How did you know the Type of Hash?
I already knew it from the forum, but in real life how to know the hash Algorithm being used?

You're only as good as the information you get. The challenge description says something important about the up-to-date-ness of the technology.

wow i feel dumb. thanks for the hint about the up-to-date ness. had gotten the hash and C&A on my own, with the brute force running for about 3 hours. figured it couldn't possibly take that long so i figured i'd check the forums to see if anyone else was having issues. After reading the above post, managed to get the pword in about 10 seconds and my laptop is god awful slow.

I highly doubt that none of the BackTrack tools will work here.

I did this with C&A personally, but BackTrack should have the tool you need. Try some out, and assuming you know the hash type, it should work just fine.

Hello, this is my first post, and before I say anything I'd like to thank everyone how made this site possible and all who keep working on it. Great job . Now, I've been working at this since last night, and since today was my day off, I've worked at it all day today also. I've googled, read forums, clicked all the links in the forums. I still cant find the hash . I feel so dumb. I finished all the basic misions and all the javascript ones, but Im still stuck on this one. If some one could please PM me to help me figure out what Im doing wrong, it would be awesomely apresiate (yes, I said awesomely). I checked all the source codes, and my dead end is /secret/admin.php ... I cant find where to go from there (and yes, I tryed same as basic 3). Thank you in advanced =)

lol, I'm having the same issue. Perhaps it's because I've been doing these all day and I'm tired, but perhaps it's a general concept I'm not getting. I've done all of the basics and all of the realistic up to this point. Any help would be appreciated as far as actually finding the file containing the hash value. Thank you in advance!

Edit: Figured it out, and yes, I feel stupid. I was waaaaaay over-thinking this one. Hint: What do .htaccess files not normally allow surfers to do?
