Chapter 0x02 - Is it too abstract ? (self.cybfarm)

Hey everyone !

With so many people stuck at 200 points on the board, I'm wondering if the chapter 2 isn't too "abstract" ?

The Cyb3r Hunt is meant to be challenging, but it shouldn't discourage players because they can't figure out what to do.

For those that went past it, did you find the solution sketchy ? Did it all make sense, or you went past it without really understanding what all these files were for ?

For those stuck, where are you stuck at (please use a spoiler tag) ?

I'm considering removing some files I consider "optional", and changing the hint to make it less like a guessing game as to what to do.

Any opinions on this ?

Thanks a lot for your help!

spoilerMy next move was to try and install https://github.com/jpillora/chisel to fetch the content via git protocol through the proxy because I cannot force git(1) to use the SOCKS5 proxy (no option seems to work: it’s only with https or http). So, maybe chisel was just there for the rhyme. Still trying…

Oh wow I had no idea this existed, but yeah at first glance, this looks like a dead-end. That's definitely not how you're supposed to do it (and it doesn't look like it could work anyway).

::: spoiler You were on the right track at first, except it's not http. Look for other proxy settings in git-config(1) :::
