This video covers part five of the North Bridge Active Directory lab, demonstrating how to bypass a zero machine account quota by targeting a specific OU to perform an RBCD attack 2:15.
Key Takeaways:
• This is part five of working through North Bridge systems; starting with part one is recommended to avoid confusion 0:05.
• The domain's machine account quota is set to zero, blocking the standard method of adding a computer account for RBCD attacks 2:15.
• A provisioning script revealed the server automation account can create computer accounts in a specific OU, bypassing the domain-wide restriction 2:15.
• The instructor successfully configured RBCD delegation using Impacket but encountered a Kerberos error when requesting the service ticket 2:15.
The video ends with the instructor still troubleshooting the service ticket request, emphasizing that extensive problem-solving is a normal and valuable part of real ethical hacking work.

What is up everyone? Welcome back to another video. This is going to be part five of working through North Bridge systems on the Hack Smarter platform. And I do want to emphasize that this is part five. So, if this is the first video that you are watching, you might feel a little bit lost. So, I would suggest rewinding, starting with part one, and then working through the series. Additionally, you will learn a lot by watching me, but you'll learn even more by hacking alongside of me. So, if you haven't already joined the Hack Smarter platform, go over to smarter.org, sign up with a subscription, launch North Bridge systems, and let's hack all of the things together. One final thing before we dive in, you might notice chat on the screen occasionally. I make these videos while I'm live strea…
