And I'm pretty sure that it would be a SuSe Linux server too, although theoretically, it could be an OES or NW65 server... Given the fact that NW6.5 does support ssh (if you load the sshd.nlm, and enable it) and the fact that you've got perl and php, as well as apache, it could have theoretically been done on a NetWare based system, although it would have to be tough to use a guess on the passwords.

On the other hand, if they used the default user name of "admin" and a password of "novell," then they got what they deserved.

Sounds more likely to be Linux, which not only supports ssh by default but is typically hacked significantly more and more hacking tools exist for due to its common use as a webserver host. Could have even been Windows, theorhetically, especially if it was a gameserver host, but I'd guess Linux at this point, based on what was released and the vendor in question. I bet the suits at Novell are steamed, based on their ongoing marketing campaign, probably why it's not been announced officially.
