      I don't see the TJ Null playlist in the video description. I have the newest TJ Null OSCP-Like HTB VM's list, but if you can find that playlist that would be awesome Id love to use it as a resource for studying.

    Hi Gary! You're a great guy and an inspiration, thanks for your videos! I'm following your advices to the letter, and going through HTB's CPTS course to prepare for OSCP next year. In your opinion, compared to the HTB machine difficulty levels, were the OSCP exam machines generally more like "Easy", "Medium" or "Hard"? How did they feel from your view? I mean, some of those HTB "Medium" machines are quite Hellraiser-ish already. I'm trying to figure out the forthcoming pain-level to adjust to, lol. Luckily I've learned to crack "Easy" machines somewhat well by now - occasionally with short guide pointers. Good luck with everything! 🙂 -Aleksi from Finland

    • @theGaryRuddell
      @theGaryRuddell  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Hey buddy! I’ve actually heard that some people find CPTS harder than OSCP! John Hammond has a video on it that you should watch. I’d say the OSCP machines are like easy-medium HTB ones. But remember, there’s a lot of CTF type stuff in the generic HTB machines. OSCP has realistic machines, some of them are old vulns but that’s fine. Best of luck! Hit me on LinkedIn if you’d like to have some DM time about it!

So glad to hear they are not all "HTB Hard - Enterprise network" level of pain. 🙂 Will definitely check out Hammond too. So awesome, I'll add you in LinkedIn sometimes soon, great to have a bit support too if some questions come up later! Thanks again, and have an absolutely fantastic weekend.

    but Id love to see the notes and transform them into my own and learn from them
