How to find readonly.macaroon hex with command?

Looking for the commands to input inside the console, in order to find the readonly.macaroon hex.Please consider that my lnd folder is in /mnt/hdd/mynode/lnd and that I think admin user has no permission to access the lnd data folder via WinSCP (probably the user is "bitcoin").

Please if you can, provide a step by step explaination so we can build a guide for everyone. Thanks!

Florida State University's - Offensive Network Security
This class allows students to look deep into know protocols (i.e. IP, TCP, UDP) to see how an attacker can utilize these protocols to their advantage and how to spot issues in a network via captured network traffic. The first half of this course focuses on know protocols while the second half of the class focuses on reverse engineering unknown protocols. This class will utilize captured traffic to allow students to reverse the protocol by using known techniques such as incorporating bioinformatics introduced by Marshall Beddoe. This class will also cover fuzzing protocols to see if the server or client have vulnerabilities. Overall, a student finishing this class will have a better understanding of the network layers, protocols, and network communication and their interaction in computer networks.
- Offensive Network Security
Florida State University's - Offensive Computer Security
The primary incentive for an attacker to exploit a vulnerability, or series of vulnerabilities is to achieve a return on an investment (his/her time usually). This return need not be strictly monetary, an attacker may be interested in obtaining access to data, identities, or some other commodity that is valuable to them. The field of penetration testing involves authorized auditing and exploitation of systems to assess actual system security in order to protect against attackers. This requires thorough knowledge of vulnerabilities and how to exploit them. Thus, this course provides an introductory but comprehensive coverage of the fundamental methodologies, skills, legal issues, and tools used in white hat penetration testing and secure system administration.

Using the Internet to Donate to Andrew Yang - Cryptocurrency, BAT, and the Brave Browser

Hi y'all,

Yesterday, I stumbled across a post on this sub that piqued my interest in alternative methods of donation. While most candidates have mentioned very little (or nothing) about cryptocurrency, Andrew Yang has a future-oriented policy outline posted on his campaign website (https://www.yang2020.com/policies/digital-asset-regulation/). As the most technologically capable candidate, it's time that we add cryptocurrency into the mix of contributions to Yang's campaign. Although crypto's relative anonymity poses a few challenges with campaign finance regulations, there is a way that we can put crypto to work legally and effectively to support Andrew.

This post will focus on the usage of the Brave browser and the associated utility token, BAT (Basic Attention Token.) Brave is a web browser developed by a team lead by the creator of JavaScript and co-founder of Firefox. The project is focused on issues such as data ownership, privacy, and security. In general, it meshes well with Yang's policies. One of the unique features of Brave is the ability to earn BAT by enabling ads. Brave blocks ads by default, but uses can opt-in to receive pop-ups for relevant ads based on locally-stored browsing data. These are shown as a small notification at the edge of the screen, typically at a rate of no more than 5 per hour. For each ad shown, the user will be paid in BAT. Earned BAT are deposited into your wallet once per month, normally around the end of the first week.

After payment, there are multiple options:

Set up tipping to give earned BAT to content creators on Reddit, YouTube, or Twitter. (Another great mission of Brave/BAT.)
Convert to another currency and spend/withdraw.
Donate to Andrew Yang!

Here's how to earn BAT using Brave to support Andrew:

Download Brave browser. Note: There is a referral program for browser downloads. By using a referral link, the referrer will earn $7.50 after ~30 days of use by the downloader. I know that many of us here will happily pass this along to to Yang campaign! ☺️ Work together to utilize this benefit. In order to generate a referral link, you must sign up to be a Brave creator at https://creators.brave.com/. As Reddit users, all of you are capable of signing up to be a creator!
Opt-in to Brave ads following the instructions at https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026648512-How-do-I-opt-in-to-Brave-Ads-
Set up your account at Uphold. You must verify your identity using a driver's license, passport, etc. There are regulations in the US related to knowing your client that Uphold must follow. Initiate this process by clicking the Brave Rewards button > "Verify Wallet" to the right of the address bar. (It's an orange/pink/purple triangle.) This should bring you to uphold.com where they will guide you through creating an account.
After your account is verified on Uphold, ensure that your Brave wallet is synced with Uphold. The "Verify Wallet" text should update to say "Wallet Verified". Your earned BAT will now sync to Uphold.
Once you have BAT in your Uphold wallet, there are a couple of options to get this money to Andrew:
1. Withdraw to your bank account. You will then use the standard method for donating to Andrew Yang at yang2020.com/donate. Note that there will be a bit of a delay between withdrawal and funds arriving in your account. Uphold also has a 1.95% withdrawal fee.
2. Convert to Bitcoin on Uphold and donate using CryptoFWD.org. This option allows you to use crypto for the entire process. This is the most "futuristic" option, but be aware that you are donating to a super PAC instead of the campaign directly. CryptoFWD is associated with u/HumanityFWD (HumanityFWD.org). They have posted some background on their organization at https://www.reddit.com/r/YangForPresidentHQ/comments/cl7cqj/the_humanity_forward_fund_the_yanggang/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x. This is a great option for anyone who has reached the legal donation maximum.
Keep using the internet as normal! Earn BAT and continue to donate your rewards.

Please let me know if you have any questions! I know this reads like an ad for multiple items, but I'm really hoping that we can use this technology to continue Andrew's momentum.

___

TL;DR

Download Brave browser (using someone's referral code if possible.)
Earn BAT (cryptocurrency) by viewing ads.
Convert BAT to USD and donate to Andrew OR convert BAT to BTC and donate to CryptoFWD.
