RootWars.org Game Descriptions 

LocalRoot 

Each team will be given root access on a default install of Linux, and 
access to my exploit FTP Server. The teams will be given a list of 
target IP addresses, and a username/password for each target IP 
address. You must telnet into, and locally exploit as many of the 
targets as possible. 

SpeedRoot 

Each team will be given root access on a default install of Linux, and 
access to my exploit FTP Server. The teams will be given a list of 
target IP addresses. Your team must attempt to gain root access on as 
many of the target IP addresses as possible in the allotted time. Teams 
are not allowed to attack other teams in any way. 

Rootwars  

Each  team is given root access to a *nix server, access to my exploit 
FTP Server, and a list of services that must be run. You have a grace 
period to install, upgrade, patch, and secure your server. Once the 
grace period is over other teams can attack your server, and you are 
free to attack the other teams' servers as well. Everyone is free to 
attempt almost any type of attack except a Denial of Service attack. 

Jump on a box and play or just hang out in the irc channel.
