About

what_it_is	An SSH wargame. You connect to a real Linux machine, find a hidden password, and use it to log in as the next user. Repeat until done.
how_it_works	SSH in as thief0 with password `thief0`. Each level has a clue that leads to the next level's password. Find it, move on.
who_its_for	People learning Linux, command-line navigation, and basic security concepts. No prior experience required — just curiosity and a terminal.
shared_server	Everyone connects to the same machine. Passwords are randomised on every server restart so answers can't be shared. Your actions don't affect other players' files.
no_account	No registration, no tracking. Just SSH in and start playing.

Connect

You need an SSH client. On Linux and macOS it's built in. On Windows, use PowerShell, Windows Terminal, or PuTTY.

ssh thief0@217.154.8.251 -p 30022
