Basic Mission 7

[edone automaton]

Do I have to write the correct commands in the field to find the password?

Yes you do. Then there is a little bit more work to do but nothing difficult. This link will help you with the correct command.

Although I don't speak Italian, it seems that all the info needed is there.

Nice mission.

My hint is:
If you are in the right waψ, dont forget to add something before the command you should write.

Hello everyone I'm French so excuse me if my English is not good, but it seems that I have a little prob with the basic 7th mission.

I found the right way to get the password (that I will not explain) but when I give the password in the form it says that the pass is wrong. I've fetched a lot of other ways to get this pass but apparently that is the same password. Help me please !

Edit : Finally I was wrong and it had worked sorry

I have a hint: After all these things, remember, after hitting enter, look at the WHOLE page. Don't get discouraged and just click out after seeing the top. That's what happened to me, and I wasted half an hour before I realized I was doing everything right, but I didn't look at the whole page.

Jeez. I feel so dumb not realizing my mistakes. I was too deep inside the coding that didn't understand the use of the calender.

The calender is your friend. Use it to your advantage.

It's not about calendar at all. It could be man or sed or whatever too. It's about the behavior of the shell and the "dev" who forwarded something to it.

conscience: But in this mission, it's the calendar that's your friend. But you are right, it doesn't have to be a calendar to be helpful.

I was told that the elders here would be more gracious to help if we spice our questions up a little by asking specific questions as opposed to pathetic general pleas.

"Why does the 'cal' command not work?"
