Leviathan - What is it?

### Dare you face the lord of the oceans?

Leviathan is a wargame that has been rescued from the demise of **intruded.net**, previously hosted on leviathan.intruded.net. **Big thanks to adc, morla and reth** for their help in resurrecting this game!

What follows below is the original description of leviathan, copied from intruded.net:


Summary:
Difficulty:     1/10
Levels:         8
Platform:   Linux/x86

Special Thanks:
We would like to thank AstroMonk for coming up with a replacement idea for the last level,
deadfood for finding a leveljump and Coi for finding a non-planned vulnerability.

Description:
This wargame doesn't require any knowledge about programming - just a bit of common
sense and some knowledge about basic *nix commands. We had no idea that it'd be this
hard to make an interesting wargame that wouldn't require programming abilities from 
the players. Hopefully we made an interesting challenge for the new ones.


Leviathan’s levels are called **leviathan0, leviathan1, … etc.** and can be accessed on **leviathan.labs.overthewire.org** through SSH on port 2223.

To login to the first level use:


Username: leviathan0
Password: leviathan0


Data for the levels can be found in **the homedirectories**. You can look at **/etc/leviathan\_pass** for the various level passwords.

Level 0

Greppy time.
