Using SSH on Command Line
We are to do the following to connect to the otw (overthewire) terminal.
- ssh into the host bandit.labs.overthewire.org
- port 2220
- username bandit0
- password bandit0
Let's quickly dive into the solution.
Before we start, I recommend using a virtual machine for this practice.
After setting up your VM. Follow the steps to ssh
- Open the command line and type this
ssh bandit0@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220
press enter
type yes
password is bandit0
press enter
You have successfully logged in and completed bandit level 0!!
See you in level 1!

I came across OverTheWire a couple of weeks ago and had so much fun with these Bandit challenges. Good Linux practice exercises!
OverTheWire is really good for hands-on projects. You are absolutely right with the Linux exercises.
