Scenario: "Tokelau": Delete from history
Level: Medium
Type: Do
Access: Email
Description: Inspired by this nixCraft article.
The objective of this exercise is to delete all the Bash history lines that contain the term foo.
Clearing out or deleting the history file /home/admin/.bash_history is now allowed. Note that in our case, new commands (including the ones to try and delete "foo" from history) are also appended to the history file.
Test: Running history |grep -q "foo" returns nothing.
The "Check My Solution" button runs the script /home/admin/agent/check.sh, which you can see and execute.
Time to Solve: 15 minutes.
