--/    SUMMARY    --

Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free, Open Source
software package designed using sound pedagogical principles, to
help educators create effective online learning communities. You
can download and use it on any computer you have handy (including
webhosts), yet it can scale from a single-teacher site to a
50,000-student University. (www.moodle.org)


--/   REPRODUCE   --

The moodle CMS is located at 'www.TARGET.com/moodle' and the moodle
database at 'www.TARGET.com/moodledata' including uploads, temp and
session files. We're interested to get the session files, created
by each user:
