OverTheWire - Bandit Level 0

This is only half a level really, as the first flag (password) can’t be captured just yet. All we need to do is connect to the server.

Level Instructions

The goal of this level is for you to log into the game using SSH. The host to which you need to connect is bandit.labs.overthewire.org, on port 2220. The username is bandit0 and the password is bandit0. Once logged in, go to the Level 1 page to find out how to beat Level 1.

Level Solution

1. Connecting

ssh bandit0@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220
This is a OverTheWire game server. More information on http://www.overthewire.org/wargames

bandit0@bandit.labs.overthewire.org's password: 

Just enter the password bandit0 when prompted, and hit ENTER. You won’t see a cursor. That’s normal.

That’s all for this first level as it’s a special starting level, without a “flag” to “capture” (that’s part of Level 1).
