SubjectRC5 Challenge
I knows this isn't really the place to ask but...  I've been reading about 
this RC5 challenge, and took a look at the master site
(http://zero.genx.net/), and I have a question. I've got a few Linux boxes
here, and am running the rc5-i586 client on them. I've read through the
information on rsa.com, but I'm still a little foggy as to how one would
'win' this competition? If the server hands you the keyspace that just
happens to have the correct answer in it, then do you win, or am I missing
the point? If I were to run the client as a background process, how would
it notify me in the event that I found the answer?

Thanks,
Matt
