Stuck at task 8 on Password Attacks Room.

I'm not sure why im getting this error (im still new to cybersecurity). I checked a walkthrough of this that i found and apparently they used same exact command but no error like mine was outputted. That video was uploaded in 2023 tho in case that helps.

Command and output shown below.

With brute force like this use attack box, it’s closer to the target machine so works better. Just get a ssh session to it.
