      so try the robots.text for ctflearn:)

  • m87donis

    It's really simple if you actually read the question. Took literally a minute or two.

  • roylt84

    The wording is really what throws me off with some of these questions.

    what file do web crawlers view to index the site

  • v544

    I learned a lot about how webcrawlers work in the course of doing this challenge. It was very much worth it to me. On one of the sites it said "of course if you are a hacker you will want to see which pages are disallowed" which makes sense to me.
