Bronze IIIWait a minute! I just had to retry the lab again to make sure I wasn't going crazy. On step 1 my 'OffensiveAdmin' password was expired:
$ xfreerdp /v:10.102.57.161 /u:OffensiveAdmin /p:"It'sBlankAnyway" /cert-ignore +clipboard
[19:30:32:656] [56154:56155] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core] - nla_recv_pdu:freerdp_set_last_error_ex ERRCONNECT_PASSWORD_EXPIRED [0x0002000E]
I had to find another "hack" to bypass and login to RDP with expired password.
Did I break something? Or did StefanApostol give me a personal extra challenge?

I was able to just RDP into it:
xfreerdp /v:10.102.191.140 /u:'OffensiveAdmin' /dynamic-resolution /cert-ignore +clipboard +drives /drive:root,/home/kali(and then filling in the pwd)
Bronze IIIIt works for me now too (should have been more clear). I had to get the above error from my logs. No idea what I did wrong back then (was a fun extra challenge).
Bronze II still get stucked with the same error (expired) though tried it. Anyone can help? Thanks.
Bronze IIIThe easiest is to restart the lab. The password will not be expired at the beginning.
If you want the hard way (which I stupidly did) you can run something like the below as jack.s to force a reset.
`[Netapi32.NetApi32]::NetUserChangePassword("offensive.local", "OffensiveAdmin", "It'sBlankAnyway", "NewPassword123!")`
