according to babbler, its an older version of Apache running on Windows, which has a known issue with pipe | characters.... but i'm not sure if ilovebees.com is actually RUNNING that or not

Server Error in '/' Application.

I really do think that this is in game, I guess the proof will come in wether we can solve it using in game information. Clearly brute-force = not cool. I suspect this will lead to a in-game server directory, not the one the site is really running off of. Anywho, as a piece of proof, this was found, on at least one occasion, by trying to enter the SPDR's code in to find a new page on the website. But check this out, one of the code segements reads thusly:
Quote:
net:
!attach
act | drop recurse

!extern proc 0
log accessed


the first command includes the | which brought us to the login. The next piece of code could suggest the procedure the SPDR sees as a result of that operation is the login we have found. I realize this runs counter to the interpretation of the code on the WIKI, so don't trout me on that, it is just another possible translation. So then the question is, how did SPDR break it and can we get in the same way?

Actually, current SPEC is that "!extern proc 0" refers to the entity we are calling the Sleeping Princess. (This is based on the parallel between the Widow's Journey story and the computer code fragments. Briefly, the story tells us: "Other than the Widow, two alone had escaped destruction. The Sleeping Princess lay in a chamber of the dungeon in a coffin of glass where the Widow could not hear her breathing." The corresponding code is: "!extern 2 / grope: / !probe extern proc 0 / crypt strong / surg: / !mat extern proc 0 / si confidence 78")

So I and others think that "!extern proc 0 / log accessed" is most likely the Sleeping Princess accessing SPDR's log and finding out what happened. As she said in one of the killer.jpg pictures: "Before I woke up I dreamed what the Widow said in processing mode." I don't think it has anything to do with the pipe (|) login prompt.

That's because Apache doesn't like the " | " character in urls. I'm sure if you check the rest of this thread this has been discussed already

Yes, I do understand that. I am just pointing out that I didn't get the 401 error other people did. Next time, read the post a bit more carefully.
