I have no idea how to connect to the praetorian api, as I have never done any work outside of my own server(s), and am not familiar with how token authentication works etc.

Can someone provide more info as to how I can access these challenges vs the instructions given on the site?

I can get the initial level 0 and its hash to appear but I don't know how to send a post or get to the api itself or if that is even what is being asked. *eg in a very dumbed down "type this in the terminal" or replace this with ___", as I literally don't understand what is being said.

Also I have no idea how to get a token from the server, or if that is something outside of ruby.

If you need a really basic way to interact with the API with a UI, try using POSTMAN. I got to level 4 using this approach. But honestly, if interacting with the API is giving you trouble... you're in for some heavy #crypto #pain. I know Praetorian sets the bar pretty high.

Good luck!

  • thanks man postman seems to be really straightforward. I figured it out with the rest-client but i just was not sure if the guess choices were actually going through – Maximus12793 Feb 07 '15 at 19:28
