Hello, still not sure what I have to do at the webpage. I am sure I am missing something very obvious, can someone pm me so I can check?
Cracked the thing, but can’t really figure out where to go from here.

ditto
I really appreciate a small hint about Crete. I reviewed headers and I don’t know how I can exploit what I found

Same here
The author gave the biggest hint for Crete. He says, Don’t enumerate hard and look at the responses. You need to understand the response and when you do it will come to you.
Well got the dns zone after receiving a helping hand from the gods… however im confused should i open the portal now or do i need to get into another machine first? Ssh seem to be enabled but the a record from dns is some private ip
How long did it take for everyone to crack it? 20 min in now, and it’s saying 3 hr left. Should I have started from the end??
Depends on your system. Average time Is after 50% of the guesses.

Yup. Got it after an hour and half. VM on macbook air, haha, not the most powerful for sure

Same here, an hour and a half for about 50%.
Still stuck on the missing host_id though, is the decrypted traffic a dead end (host_int), or am I missing something obvious?

I got it
Maybe i spoil too much now, but there is some guessing after you processed the capture file. You should have found 2 pieces of information, some kind of id and some other thing that is harder to obtain. One out of those two can be used as is, the other one needs some educated guessing before it can be used. If you are really stuck you can send me a PM :).
I’m inside Crete host with a reverse shell and I’m a little bit confused… I’d really appreciate where I should pay attention…

Many thanks for the tip, got the help from the gods, I was too hasty and forgot to try this step before carrying on with the DNS
