I've got one directory of files listed at least, but I can't access any of the listed files, oddly. I'm wondering exactly what directory the command is listing, because it certainly isn't the /tmp or /8 directory.

NVM: I got it!

i've found the "********".php file.. but when I input that password.. it gives me error.. that password is not correct..
i miss something?

Edit: Please do not post exact file names, or things that spoil the mission. You will be warned this time.

Okay i've basically got it. I've got so far that it lists the files in the tmp directory, but now I'm well and truly stumped on changing the directory. I tried changing the directory and then listing the files but I just got that error-like message about certain functions and stuff not being allowed.

I've also searched google for nearly 3 quarters of an hour and just can't find the right thing to put me in the right direction; if you can help I will officially love you!

Thanks,
Kieran

Okay no need to tell me now. I found it out; it was so simple I can barely believe it now.

Good luck to everybody else who tries it, it's easier than you think!

I'm hitting a brick wall with this one. I've gotten a hang of SSI commands and all, I've used ls, but I just can't find how to change directories to get to where I need to get the pass. I've looked at a good few articles and pages, but nothing has really given me insight.

Thanks.

Hi guys and gals, I eventually got the ls list in the basic 7 by typing ;ls is this what I type in again? I've typed in so may variations of ls that I'm going insane. Is there a anything else I need to type into the *nix enter your name box to get it to work? Do I need to put a space in or something or ; again or what? Thanks

Arrrghhh! Ok dudes, give me an hand...
I've tryed every combination with the 'ls' command but i'm stuck.
The script accept well the pure ls (so I see all the *.shtml) and I figured out that I'm in the deepest folder.
But, how can I change the directory? Every cd or ls won't work saying some restrictions... blabla...
Maybe I'm so stupid but I need help.

THX.
