Simple CTF

This is a simple CTF site.
The challenges here are not designed to test your hacking skills, they are designed to test basic networking knowledge.
A proper Internet connection, and reasonable knowledge of networking, DNS and HTTP are all that's required.
If you only have a partial or broken internet connection, you may have trouble completing some of these.

Flags

All flags on this CTF are in the form of a SHA512 hash value, they will look something like this:
0e3e75234abc68f4378a86b3f4b32a198ba301845b0cd6e50106e874345700cc6663a86c1ea125dc5e92be17c98f9a0f85ca9d5f595db2012f7cc3571945c123
All of them will be exactly 128 characters long.

Scope

Only the following address ranges are in scope:
Anything outside of these ranges is out of scope and should not be touched.

Submit

If you have the answers, submit them to ctf [at] ev6 [dot] net
You get one point for a correct answer, and one extra point for explaining the challenge.
The point is not for these challenges to be difficult, in fact they are all very simple and depending on where you try from you may get some of the flags with no effort whatsoever - the main goal here is to understand how each challenge works.

Challenge 1 - FTP

The first flag is on an FTP server - ftp.simplectf.ev6.net, the FTP service runs on port 21264. Extra bonus point if you can explain the significance of port 21264.

Challenge 2 - HTTP

This flag was generously donated by Portuguese footballer Christiano Ronaldo. You can find it at the following location:
http://simplectf.ev6.net/flag.html

Challenge 3 - HTTP again

This one should be simple, the flag is at the following URL:
http://web2.simplectf.ev6.net/flag.txt
This site my fail to load if you don't have a proper connection. You can verify that this site is up by using a third party site such as https://testmyconnection.net

Challenge 4 - HTTP yet again

Another simple HTTP one, the flag is at the following URL:
http://warp.simplectf.ev6.net/flag.txt

Challenge 5 - Email

Simply send an email to ctf@firenzee.com to receive the flag.
Please note, free email providers such as gmail, hotmail etc are blacklisted - you need to use something else.

Challenge 6 - HTTPS

Further instructions can be found at https://web3.simplectf.ev6.net
Follow these instructions to get the flag.

Challenge 7 - Obfuscation

The flag is contained within a text file located at http://simplectf.ev6.net/flag7.txt

Challenge 8 - Protocols

The host "simplectf.ev6.net" has an SSH service on port 22. Simply connect to this service, and the flag is in the pre-auth login banner. Note that it is not TCP port 22, it uses a different protocol.

Challenge 9 - SSH

The flag is slightly different for this challenge, it is a SHA256 instead of a SHA512. Simply get the SSH host key for the host "ssh.simplectf.ev6.net".
