He said Rooting 2, which is the one actually on the site. But yeah, I don't think it's down anyway.

GOGO - you were the one who thought the "link to HBH other challenge" answer was "http://www.hellboundhackers.org/"….

…. and your attempting Rooting 2?!

i dont think its down.

just because you cant complete a challenge, doesnt mean its broken. the only challenge i believe is down at the moment is realistic 7.

As for changing directories, I can honestly say it's not down. It's very strict on how you change directories, though… it's a simulation, after all. Think of what OS it's simulating, and try changing directories directly instead of just backing out and going into directories.

Edit: To the OP, quit being a smartass. There are people that want to help you. However, when you come into the forums to scream that a challenge is down when, really, you lack the proper knowledge to complete the challenge… then, it's obviously that you didn't THINK first. If you had spent a bit more time on the challenge instead of crying for help in the forums, then you would've realized what I stated above. Learn a bit more about basic commands, then attempt the rooting challenge.

i tried changing directory to /home through one command but it didn't work

Okay first i'm not screaming .. i'm making sure that the challange is working right so i don't waste my time on it

second i did read all the articles and all the threads about root 2 and most of the threads said that the root 2 chall was down .. so that made me more suspicious ..

third its kind of RUDE to say i didn't THINK first

If you had spent a bit more time on the challenge instead of crying for help in the forums,

Dude i'm NOT crying or screaming or even asking for help .. i'm merely making sure that the chall is not down

and i did spend more time in the forum and the articles

i do check all threads and all articles about a chall before i post

i even read the threads from 2005 !

then you would've realized what I stated above. Learn a bit more about basic commands, then attempt the rooting challenge.

the info i got stated that i should cd into the home directory .. which i couldn't ..

and whats with not being qualified to do root challs ..

i do have a background about linux commands and i'm already using nmap on my box ..

and i did root 1,3

guys your being incredibly not fair here !

so what do i have to do to get help here .. !!!!!!! if even the admin himself is flaming at me !!!!!!!!

I ignored everything else you said. Read that one sentence over and over to yourself until you realize how to write the command. It's really simple. I just did it again to make sure… it does work. Are you paying attention to the directory listing in the prompt?

so i'm on the right track :)

and yes i did pay attention to directories listed .. (can't cd into anyone one of them)

isn't the home directory before sbin ?!

i appreciate your help Zephyr

Thanks

Not "directories"… the directory listed in the prompt at the bottom of the fake terminal. Just look at it. Look at how it's written, then apply what you're trying to that.

Umm… no. Look, I'm not trying to flame you here, but you REALLY need to learn more about the OS that is being simulated in this challenge before you attempt this one. Seriously. What you're attempting is VERY basic and, if you don't get it by now, there's nothing else I can say to help you without having you come back to the forums every two seconds because you don't know how to structure a command. Again, not flaming… just honest.
