OverTheWire - Bandit Level 6 walkthrough (troubleshooting tutorial)

Excellent explanation. The other only shows the command but no break down into digestible information. This is great and easier to understand

For Level 6 -7 has anyone tried using the ls command and grepping for the file. I tried this and was able to locate the file name but when I put it into find I am not able to find the location of it. I know the filename the command below gives me is correct but when I run find on the filename it provides (which is the same one that has the password in this video) find is unable to find it. I started find in /. The ls/grep commands I used are as follows: cd / && ls -laR | grep bandit6 | grep bandit7 | grep 33 The above command outputs the file: bandit7.password but when I used find to search for it on the computer it comes up with nothing. Any thoughts/solutions would be greatly appreciated! for the find command I am using the following: cd / && find . -name bandit7.password I have also tried the following: cd / && find . bandit7.password Thanks for sharing your troubleshooting. Makes me feel like I am not the only one going through pain!
