Using CrackMapExec - Windows OS Version Format

In the Basic SMB Reconnaissance section, the final question asks ‘What’s the OS version?’.

When we run the command:

crackmapexec smb <ip> -u '' -p ''

We get (as part of the output) Windows 10 / Server 2019 Build 17763 x64, but no combination of phrases from this (or the whole of it) seems to be accepted as the answer.

What is the format that the answer needs to be in?

follow the previous sections’ instructions to download crackmapexec in a docker. you need to downgrade to a lower version. currently 6.1.0 worked fine for me; they had 5.4.

*the pwnbox doesn’t work either; its version is somehow too low, which is funny

I figured it out by looking at the output in the next section.
I felt frustrated.

Windows 10.0 Build 17763 x64
