overthewire.org BANDIT level13-14

An interesting challenge this. For the first time we move away from file commands and begin making use of commands more a kin to use within network operations

The password for the next level is stored in /etc/bandit_pass/bandit14 and can only be read by user bandit14. For this level, you don’t get the next password, but you get a private SSH key that can be used to log into the next level. Note: localhost is a hostname that refers to the machine you are working on

Commands you may need to solve this level

ssh, telnet, nc, openssl, s_client, nmap
as ever with the beauty of *nix there is always more than one way to skin a cat, I simply chose the method that i know.
