Medium difficulty, less than 24 hours to go, let's get this thing started. Any thoughts on what this box may bring?

Can't wait!!!! After bashing my head against the control box (got user but still root eludes me), I am looking forward to getting back to familiar ground with *inux.

General question / curious: How does HTB determine the difficulty rating prior to release? Is it something you assign? The testers?

You can assign the difficulty, but I imagine they change it if they disagree.

Awesome! Looking forward to giving it a try! New HTB machine days are always good days.

Popping boxes while buzzed/wasted is just good fun.

Thanks for your help! I just have very limited experience with windows machines. This one should be more comfortable. We shall see.

I enjoyed this very much, thank you @clubby789! But I think misclassified, it's one of the easiest ones currently available.
