I am having trouble getting Packetbeat to install on Kibana. I have gone through the video provided on how to do it, however due to the path information being different I am having a hard time finding out the equivalent. I think all I need to do is import the dashboards but not exactly sure what I am doing wrong as it reads that the command doesn't exist on my machine. I have also tried the sudo command but it asks for a password and not sure where to find the password as I did not create one. Please assist. ---
