-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

write the RSA key to a folder in the /tmp directory (/tmp/fantm/private then nano into the file (nano /tmp/fantm/private) then copy and paste the private rsa key into the file. exit and save), then using what we learned in bandit 13, though, remember that private keys have specific read write rules that need to be implemented. there are options, but this is the one i remember

bandit16@bandit:~$ chmod 0600 /tmp/fantm/private 

bandit16@bandit:~$ ssh -i /tmp/fantm/private bandit17@localhost

...
  Enjoy your stay!

bandit17@bandit:~$ 

Completing The Challenge

The Goal:

There are 2 files in the homedirectory: passwords.old and passwords.new. The password for the next level is in passwords.new and is the only line that has been changed between passwords.old and passwords.new

The Solution:

 bandit17@bandit:~$ diff passwords.new passwords.old
42c42
< kfBf3eYk5BPBRzwjqutbbfE887SVc5Yd
---
> w0Yfolrc5bwjS4qw5mq1nnQi6mF03bii

So it is one of the above, after reading the man page, < is lines from File1, while > is from File2.

since file1 is *.new then the password should be kfBf3eYk5BPBRzwjqutbbfE887SVc5Yd

SUCCESS
