Your missionis to crack this hidden message by determining the passphrase used to encrypt it.This is not as difficult as it seems; it requires ingenuity rather than any particularcracking tool.</P><P>Following is a single line of clear text; your job is to determine the significanceof that text. Having done so, you can crack the encrypted text. The public key usedwas <TT>root@netherworld.net</TT>. The passphrase is composed of the significantstrings you derive from the clear text. (These are not difficult to decode; theirmeanings are actually quite obvious if you apply yourself.) The clear text fieldsare separated by semicolons. That means the passphrase is a series of text strings.Examples of such text strings might be any of the following:<UL>	<LI>A line from a Shakespearean play	<LI>A time, place, or person	<LI>A name</UL><P>Each string will be in perfectly understandable English. Piece them together inorder, and you will have the passphrase. This will serve as the private key necessaryto decrypt the message.</P><P>Here is a powerful hint, and the only one I will give: The field separator (semicolon)represents one space, one dash, and one space. Thus, fields separated by semicolonsin the following clear text represent phrases separated by a space, a dash, and aspace. So if the hidden message was <TT>apples oranges pears</TT>, it would be writtenthis way:</P><PRE><FONT COLOR="#0066FF">apples - oranges - pears</FONT></PRE><P>The message contained within that file is very serious. It relates a criticalpoint about the Internet--one that even many security experts might have missed.That point will undoubtedly be a matter of some debate.</P><P>Good luck.</P><P>Clear text:</P><P><TT>4X755(4X230.4);abydos;072899;9:11;13:17</TT></P><H1><TT></TT></H1><CENTER><P><HR><A HREF="../apb/apb.htm"><IMG SRC="../button/previous.gif" WIDTH="128" HEIGHT="28"ALIGN="BOTTOM" ALT="Previous chapter" BORDER="0"></A><A HREF="../apd/apd.htm"><IMGSRC="../button/next.gif" WIDTH="128" HEIGHT="28" ALIGN="BOTTOM" ALT="Next chapter"BORDER="0"></A><A HREF="../index.htm"><IMG SRC="../button/contents.gif" WIDTH="128"HEIGHT="28" ALIGN="BOTTOM" ALT="Contents" BORDER="0"></A> <BR><BR><BR><IMG SRC="../button/corp.gif" WIDTH="284" HEIGHT="45" ALIGN="BOTTOM" ALT="Macmillan Computer Publishing USA"BORDER="0"></P><P>&#169; <A HREF="../copy.htm">Copyright</A>, Macmillan Computer Publishing.
