Great walkthroughs for retired machines. You will learn a lot about the tools and workflows that work on HTB machines.

Retired machines? So I’m not cheating by looking at this? Ok, then that’s a good thing. I don’t want the answers given to me but I guess if the machine is retired then it will still probably help. Thanks.
