Write-up
The description says that we need to find the only human readable file in the inhere
directory. To see the file format I used the file
command on all the files in the inhere
directory.
for x in `find inhere -type f -print`;
do
file $x;
done
I got
inhere/-file08: data
inhere/-file05: data
inhere/-file07: ASCII text
inhere/-file04: data
inhere/-file00: data
inhere/-file01: data
inhere/-file06: data
inhere/-file03: data
inhere/-file09: data
inhere/-file02: data
Thus inhere/-file07
is the file we are looking for. cat inhere/-file07
gives the password for the next level.
