Hosting

This challenge should be a Docker container that runs the Python script a-z0-9.py every time someone connects on port 40005. All the proper files are included in here. The command to build the docker container is (when located inside of this directory):

sudo docker build -t az09 .
sudo docker network create -d bridge az09

The command to start the challenge is:

sudo docker run -p 40005:40000 --detach --name az09 --network az09 az09:latest

The command to stop the challenge (since CTRL+C won't work) is:

sudo docker stop az09
