There's really no need. As far as I know, there has never been an instance of a Mac webserver being hacked successfully, when no other programs were involved. (There was a case, once, where someone used a security hole in Lasso to break in to a server... but the box that Arrival sits on isn't running Lasso, or anything else you can hack.)

The Army set up a Webstar box a couple of years back, and told hackers to have at it - nobody ever got through. This crowd doesn't devote all of its spare time learning new hacking techniques - it's unlikely they'll have MORE success than a group that lives for that stuff.

Really - solving the puzzle will be MUCH, MUCH easier than hacking the server. :)
