    I finally got it after looking through the Nmap lessons. Nmap: Ep.2 – Using Nmap task 9, it will give you a command then use what you find there and check that port.

      I scanned as instructed but perhaps I'm overlooking the outcome, should I see the token as the result of the Nmap scan or further port analysis is required?
