Just rooted the box. Can someone provide some guidance on how to do it without the easy tool if there is a way?
It depends what you mean by “easy tool”? If you mean msf - well, you could fire exploit manually. But to get the user, there’s no need for fancy tools. I did it manually.
Hi, I have accessed to the server with r**** user. I see that the user doesnt have permission to read the flags. Am I ok or I need to accesswith other user? You can write me dm.

As with ANY HTB machine. If you manage to get access onto the box but can’t access the user.txt file then something more needs to be done.
Majority of the time it is that you need to priv esc somehow to the higher user in order to get the user.txt
I’m currently trying to S** with M***. Got the key from i*_r*bk . but when I enter the passphrase I got a "Connection closed by 10.10.10.160 port 2" But this is supposed to work, right?
Is the box (on EU Free 1) in a invalid state. Is a reset needed?
Hi guys. Starting to work on this machine but got stucked on the very beggining. Already found the service I am suposed to exploit to get initail shell, but for it to work I need a username. How do you guys enumerate the usernames?
Many people got root with metasploit but Is there any way get root without metasploit?
I tried uname command and exploitdb privileges escalation but I didn’t work.

Maybe its the wrong exploit/service to use? Enumerate more. Maybe you stumble accross another service you can exploit.
Yesterday I finally got ROOT. But the strange thing, I got root before user. And judging by the posts here, I seem to be not the only one here.
Really want to know how people got user the intended way.
The initial foothold was really the hardest work on this. First I was trying to exploit the wrong service and then when I found the right one, Irealized that I have to learn a lot about it to make it work.
Sadly the exploits on msf didn’t work for me and I couldn’t make them work. So I tried another way. But this was probably not the intended one …
When I finally found a user and password, it didn’t work as I thought it would. And when I used the creds on another exploit, I was suddenly root …
Everything very strange, but all in all I liked the box, because it made me learning about a service, I had never heard before …

The service I am trying on is the r***s. I think is the same everyone else is using.
I am such a noob, ive worked on this for 3 days and I know its my first box but i just cant get a start. I found the services R**** and W***** but have no clue what to do. I used dirbuster,nikto and burb on http but still, i am lost and do not know what im looking for. Pm me for a nudge please.
Found R****, but none of the exploits seem to be working. I tried tinkering around with the EDB-options in metasploit, and even alternative exploit methods altogether, but nothing really seems to work here. just errors / dead-silence galore.
