## chicago hackmeeting - hacker 'capture the flag' challenges ##

We have set up a series of hacking challenges to coincide with the
international hackmeeting. several systems have been set up as 'free
range hacking' and everyone is encouraged to test their skills against
other hackers around the world to break in and defend these systems.

There are several boxes that have already been set up for this
weekend's competition. There are a variety of operating systems and
services configured, ranging from easy to difficult. Several of the
systems are lab computers at the dai5ychain space, while others exist
elsewhere on the internet.

At the start of the competition, we have set up :

Everyone is free to contribute a system to the game, see the
introduction or contact us. We will be hanging out on irc.freenode.org

competition.

which was developed and modified to fit for this weekend by OutThere
and Insurgency from hackthissite.org.
