Hello,
Similar to Sudo password for elastic user, I am trying to complete the lab for Observability Fundamentals, but I need to use "sudo" to download and install packages. It keeps telling me the password is incorrect, but I have tried resetting the password, and it still does not accept it. Does anyone have any ideas?
I am trying to do the Observability Fundamentals (Loading), but I cannot get the lab with Strigo to work. I need to install Filebeat using dpkg, but I can't because I am not a superuser.
I'm pretty sure Filebeat is already installed. Are you missing a step where maybe you are supposed to SSH onto another server? Something like ssh server1?
sudo is not necessary for completing lab steps. As stated by step 2.1, you can use the following commands to download and extract Filebeat:
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/filebeat/filebeat-7.13.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
tar -xzf filebeat-7.13.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
cd filebeat-7.13.1-linux-x86_64
