Hey guys! I’m really glad that most of you like the box! As most of you already said, this box is aimed at people who are new to HTB. Yes it can be boring for advanced players who hoped to learn something new, but I think this box is a good stepping stone up from the box “Jerry”. All hints provided in this thread should be enough to root the machine, so i will not give any more. Go back to basics and look in front of you!As for the question if it is possible to get a root shell. Yes it is!
Is root shell the intended way? Because that’s how I did it and reading the thread getting the impression there’s meant to be a more “obvious” way - but to me the shell was super obvious and I can’t see this other way
Anything that works is intended, both are really obvious. But i can imagine that new players might have trouble with seeing all the possibilities you have in this scenario.
