Tracking 1 and 2

This Article contains a Step-by-step Guide, and no immediate Spoilers.

Tracking 1:- As far as i'm aware, Gmail is the best option to trace an IP from email. If you do not have gmail, PM me and i will send you an Invite. So your logged in with Gmail, and you have the email from HBH. If you can't see what you want straight away…Always select [hint] More options [/hint] Once you get the IP, get the hostname for it from here http://www.komar.org/cgi-bin/ip_to_country.pl Easy as that!

Tracking 2:- Okay when you visit the hacked site none of the links on the right hand column direct you anywhere. There isn't anything in the source so lets think logically. Where would you save logs? Good stuff, we got it! But wait, that damn child left us a message, But he left us a massive hint. Do you remember what happened to the url when clicking the broken links on the side? Take another look. Gah look's like C1ngular has got us again. But firstly look at the 'Source' of every problem, it always reveals something helpful.

If you have completed those steps, you should have the IP Address of the last person logged in. But the challenge wants the hostname and country. I recommend you use this http://www.komar.org/cgi-bin/ip_to_country.pl to get what you need. Congrats, you have completed the Tracking challenges.

If you need any more help, feel free to PM me.

Pretty good. Just enough info for someone to get it. Although, when you said 'There isn't anything in the source so lets think logically' It could throw someone off.

still gets a 10/10 Bl4ckC4t

Tracing 2 –>

First of all, sorry for waking the dead posts.

I got the IP, host name and country of the Hacker but it is not accepting my entry. Did the add a false IP behind as a decoy.

Giving it a poor because its Pretty much the same as an article written by FlaKe, except you have written it in actually english.

Well done, no spoilers but very helpful. I used a combo of your article, and the article above to pass this challenge! Thanks so much!

I think the exercise tracking 1 is broken, that the email comes from another server than what the exercise is expecting as a good answer due to an AWS migration
