βPlay classic DOS games on your iPhone and iPad!
iDOS turns your device right into a powerful DOS gaming PC, with modern game control to make your old favorites as playable as possible.
You can also use iDOS for non-gaming purposes, such as word processing, casual programming. Apps in the DOS daysβ¦
methinks you can probably do it today now that iDOS is on the app store
so you can finally play Larry 1

@hoary nebula I really need to rewatch LOTR
Itβs been ages
anyone around who can bless me with a nudge for the new AD box?
been at it all day with this one, AD is really not my thing
dont get when people say AD is fun
Only this one
Last season was fun
Maybe other machines will be fun
Which one

Innall honesty last week was actually really hard on us because we got truck shipments like crazy
It was so bad
The truck driver had to leave stuff in the front of the store because it wouldnt fit in our backroom
sorry whats the deal paying vip suscription? just access to more machines or what? does it count to the ranking?
Ive got the sunday blues about going to the office tomorrow
I got some cool IR and threat hunting posters from SANS to put up at my desk so i got that going for me
I've been practicing on the free picoctf and vulhub machines
Access to retired machines and private more dedicated spaces is the biggest benefit probably. It does not count towards rankings.
It will be okay mr monkey man.

Cool, competency achieved via pre assessment. Should be an easy pass.
Not that it is a technical certification but we all start somewhere (i donβt like paying for certs)
no no WE are gonna celebrate that stuff man
That and finally getting OOP to click working on Java stuff last night. Productive weekend.
oh no we dont celebrate that; that's self inflicted suffering bro
I did python stuffs first so I kept getting mixed up trying to learn about class construction and syntax
why not just print("this") and import that
right? lol
eeew java
It's an online program and we have the choice to either get to campus or find a proctor to field the exam for us.
insane
one dude in my class was like uhhh.. I'm in xyz state which is like 1000 miles from campus lol
I agree.. but I guess it's good exposure for someone like me who doesn't have any prior computer science knowledge and gaining a better understanding of low level programming works to get a grasp on how computers compute.
well to be fair
flights inside the US are generally cheaper than they originally appear
but to take a test lol

lol yeah.. he was like guess I'm paying a proctor?
the Professor was like ohh yeah.. I don't recommend flying out just for an exam.
offers online program
requires in person test taking

did cbbh path change at all or just a rename?
java is a high level language vro, you're not learning about anything low level
the only experience with programming you get from java is learning how to write instant legacy code and poor performing apps
and how to write projects with unreadable code because of the number of nested classes you'll have
tbh a well structured java program is very readable, but thats only because of design patterns
I tried learning java when I was younger and I was like "what's all this boilerplate code mean?"
learn python then go, go will teach you good habits after getting some kind of foundation, you can write unsafe code in go so you can learn about some low level stuff like pointer arithmetic or using system calls
See here: #1415448474198999182 message
Go was my next tackle. Ive got some python down but if I was pressed to write something useful on my own without assistance Iβm not effective enough.,
I did make a password sprayer at work so that was fun to run. Set off our ndr.

I've already opened one and I think their solution was just to disable the feature altogether. Or, perhaps they're bringing it back after fixing the CORS issue.

I recant my statement on java being a low level language im just dumb

Salam everyone
look up twilight of the idols by friedrich nietzsche and read that
Cool, cool. Maybe it was related to the platform issues they were having the other day.
I'm 200% sure
So ive convinced myself to pickup rust again, time to see if i can make it passed old habbits again
old man spotted

Go is amazing tbh ive got a lot of projects in it, was almost going to pick it up again cause debating replacing c++ stuff but leaning towards trying to learn rust again
what is the best way to crack corporate passwords? anyone got recommendations etc
why? 
like what wordlist + rule as rockyou.txt doesnt meet password complexity = 1 or min char length of 8 usually
with hashcat you're supposed to use rules with it

for an assessment but password follows password complexity =1 and 8 char min
will just have to hope rockyou and oneruletorulethemall might get a hit
what kind of assessment?

They're not bringing it back. Just got an update on my support ticket. Oh, well. Workaround exists.
?
Maybe the VPN config?
who
You.
omg you are pro
how to download
Log into app.hackthebox.com and download the VPN config to your Kali box. I'm not sure what you're trying to download though.

My mails pass dmar, dkim, spf, ptr, everything looks good, but my emails land in gmail's spam folder instead of inbox. Talos intelligence says my sending ip reputation is neutral. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I've made sure everything is good. Sigh. I just read that the domain needs to build reputation or something.
They used to go to inbox years ago. I don't know what google changed.
I've been running an email server for over 8 years now
Using digital ocean or the likes of.
Vultr
I tested many VPS providers. Vultr mails actually landed in gmail inbox so I stuck with them
No one on my subnet has bad rep according to talos
Did someone in the past send automated emails (not spam) before you set up dmarc/spf/kim? Gmail has additional thresholds for amounts of received emails per domain. They should clear automatically, not sure about the time range.
Gmail could just be sending their block to spam as a just because
Funny thing is, everything used to work as expected. I'm going to test yahoo mail and hotmail as well. But gmail is the biggest one. I need my mails delivered to inbox.
Also set up Google Postmaster and see its report. You need to at least add their TXT record on DNS.
I just setup google post master, domain verified it says.
Postmaster should show you Google's reputation ranking for your domain.
Still, most likely you went over the abuse rate limits before you set up dmarc/dkim/spf, and it takes time to clear.
Without the dmarc/dkim/spf the limits are something silly low like 50000 emails per day
After that Google classifies you as spammer
I've barely sent any emails from my domains.
Yahoo works fine. It lands in inbox
Not spam
Thanks, that's helpful
Since you're not doing promotional emails most likely you have misconfiguration in the email server's SMTP
ptr is good, dkim, spf, dmarc, all is passing on gmail's end.
How old is the domain?
Hmmm
Also, I'm going to have to stop using a desktop client to send mails.
I just noticed it includes my desktop name and home ip in the headers. I have rainloop installed on my vps. I'll use that to send mails so my ip isn't included in headers.
Goddamit being an email admin sucks assholes.
You can have your server clean that up. Should help with your spam.
Amazon SES pricing is structured as follows:
Outbound email: $0.10 per 1,000 emails + $0.12 per GB for attachments
Global Endpoints: Additional $0.03 per 1,000 emails when sent through multi-region endpoints
Inbound email: $0.10 per 1,000 emails + $0.09 per 1,000 incoming email chunks
Free tier: 3,000 message charges free each month for the first 12 months
that's pretty cheap.
I might check out mailgun or something too
hey guys how are we?
Trying to figure out why my emails from my server, all hosted domains, go into gmail spam instead of inbox. Works on other providers like yahoo just fine.
What about you?
just got back from university actually!
"check engine"? yeah it's still there π
Goodmorning homosapiens, how we doin today?
This is very strange. Some emails go to gmail inbox, some go to spam. WTF is happening!?
this is why i do not do email π
its so jank
Have you checked rmail rules?
Email*
Everything used to work fine. All my hosted domains use the same smtp to send mail, and they all used to land in gmail inbox. I don't know what changed. On my end everything verifies good. Gmail verified ptr, dkim, spf, dmarc, etc. etc.
sending IP good?
mail-tester.com is a free online service that allows you to test your emails for Spam, Malformed Content and Mail Server Configuration problems
10-10?
oh
good yourself?
thats your issue
ip reputation is neural on talos intelligence
my money is on someone within the same IP Block/ASN/etc trashed it
no one else on my subnet has bad rep, neural and good only
the reason I went with vultr was they gave me a clean ip and emails landed in inbox in gmail.
vultr is horrid
I haven't sent any emails in years
In doing fine, thank you!
Everyone says that about every vps service
yes they all suck
imo every other provider sucked for email. vultur ip rep was clean and good.
Something recently changed in google. must be. My end is fine.
@worthy cargo send a sanitized copy of an email that ended up in spam to chatgpt, that most often fixes every issue #workinginITmeansworkingwithgoogleing
@static pasture heeey buddy, how u doin!? Been a fev months now since we spoke haha
Ok I made progress. I figured something else out by testing.
If I send email from my desktop mail client, it goes into gmail spam. If I use rainloop mail client hosted on my VPS, it goes into gmail inbox. Same email, same content, same subject line, same sender. One landed in spam, one landed in inbox.
wow
I've got a few domains hosted. I used a domain that has never sent any mails really. Just landed in gmail inbox from rainloop. I sent the same email from claws-mail from my desktop and it landed in spam folder.
WTF is going on!? I'll figure it out.
Sooo, it sees everything, that's not from your hosted VPS, as spam?
Seems like it.
Why not just use Gmail?
Im so glad im not sitting with that problem now, it's 8am for me lol
I've got like 8 domains. It costs money for email bro. At least $1-$2 per box on any service.
Though how much I spend on a VPS and a dedi, every month, I ... blah.
proton is like $3/month for email hosting
Gmail is for the expensive price of $0 a day
@worthy cargo you can set up a business email on Gmail using cloudflare
isnt that inbound only
for how much?
- cloudflare shitty company tbh
I can always uses amazon ses or sendinblue or mailgun.
I believe so
that's too expensive bro are u crazy
if all else fails
I've never had any issues with its domain hosting
but so far i made progress. Sending from my home mail client is the issue somehow.
its more around their aggressive sales tactics
No
I just tested it, you can send and receive emails
Wdym?
this one was the biggest story
but also heard similar things from people i know
Theyre just very pushy, like to make things up etc
If you configure the mail routing properly you can send and receive mail
Interesting
fwiw i feel like alot of people misunderstand the bad part of that
some of what they want is resonable
its the hiding behind "trust and safety", and not being clear thats the issue
the ask from CF to move to BYOIP makes sense, it just is horridly handled
Sorry for stupid question, but why not use MFB?
If anyone portsans on my vps, they'll only find 80 and 443 open. Everything else is locked down.
I'll eventually find the time to upgrade everything and setup everything over again.
Well, be careful with stuff you put here(since it's a big server with a mix of people, for your own safety)
I share no domains! or ips.
Good, just a friendly thought!
I'd recommend a test-environment when you're gonna upgrade everything. And test it until it works, and then just implement it after that
Funny thing is, if I send from rainloop hosted on my vps, no problem, it goes into inbox in gmail.
If I send from home, using claws-mail, my client of choice, it goes into spam folder.
Not sure why that's happening.
plus, I shouldn't send email from my house anyway. I haven't figure out yet how to not have it show my home ip in email headers.
So I'll be using rainloop for now to send mails and use clawsmail to manage imap boxes
I kinda fw functional programming more than OOP for stuff like TUI apps
@rose onyx did you make any new changes to your HTB sdk?
Imma get back to working on the TUI again
Cyber Operations
I have 1500+ people in my email list in listmonk. I just tested sending from listmonk and it goes directly into gmail inbox. So far so good
The problem seems to only happen when I send mails from my home mail client. they go into spam. What a weird issue.
π₯
The hells up with all these randos asking me to be their mentor all the time?
I feel like this is some type of scam/spam lol
Like bro, I don't even know you, you didn't even say hi
just came straight to "teach me"
like wtf I look like a teacher?
I just follow this simple rule that I will ignore everyone who's not yapping in #general
Most of these people aren't even verified
@lilac cipher
Does somebody have experience for this subject? #1424664481480310814 message
Guys where can i find this certificate?
really unsure what that is but imo there are 2 things in htb labs that go with aws first is the enterprise only aws pro lab
and the 2nd one is aws fortress
Golam conviently flexing his enterprise access
thats taken from htb site π© https://www.hackthebox.com/business/professional-labs/cloud-labs-blacksky
I found this on Michael I linkedin. Btw, maybe you know if there any educational resource for aws & azure on htb enterprise?
i dont think there is any learning material but there is the pro lab i told you abt there is one for gcp one for aws and lastly azure
go here
Tbh I wouldn't think too hard on it. The amount of tat people put on their LinkedIn to feel better about themselves is mind blowing
Super expensive to work on unfortunately
Don't think my company even has the cloud labs on our enterprise sub
shiny things have costed money since the dawn of time
altho i dont know why comptia costs money
Comptia is great. You pass one exam and they invite you to be on the board to determine the certs question set 
Okay, thanks
Lol
Idk but I tried bun and I loved it
did you try deno
Damn i really want some cloud educational resources on htb
I don't really see much benefits of Deno so I didn'ttry, I am going to check in the video
Nothing will kill JS, JS can't even kill itself properly
/feedback
funnily enough oracle still owns javascript trademark
eeew JS
Check bun, everything Deno does bun can do it but faster
buy enterprise

I will if there any cloud resources to learn from
I remember back in the day I wrote 900 tests for an app and the client asked me why we should change node for bun, I showed the tests went from 2 minutes to a few seconds
Bun also doesnt hire us engineers
Are there any cloud resources on that last company HTB acquired?
π€·πΏββοΈ
What really?
chat, imagine using node JS for full stack 
This coming from Mr. I used Rust to interact with Kerberos
Rust > everything
I like how they are hiring zig devs of all things
Is not that bad
super expensive to run haha
its a full env in the associated cloud providers
hence the high cost, and B2B only nature
What bun won't hire is me
Which one costs the most to run?
it is when you need to handle more than like 200 requests a second
that i have no idea
deno I think supports up to 8 threads unlike node being single threaded
I hope it's GCP 
No, that is just default config, you can set how many threads you want
I believe node isgood handling big amounts of requesta
not as good as go π
Go is pretty dope
use rust
Well
Emma knows what's up
Nobody can be number 1
goodluck with json in rust 
Good luck with everything in rust
Is json bad in Rust? I swear I did something with that before and it wasn't that bad
When your code syntaxlooks like caveman art everything is difficult
I don't have good experience with it tbh. I don't enjoy verbose languages

You're a go cultist
I made a discord bot in rust that would get all the results from MMA fights and show the official scorecard and judges that scored it. Biggest issue was related to the discord related stuff changing it's implementation constantly
Gocultism 
join the cult!
we have pizza and cookies
Maybe some day
if you're coming from python the data types might be a bit confusing but if you have experience with other langs then go will probably super easy for you to pick up
when I started go I had no idea what a pointer or 32 int was
I have exp with node, php, python and ruby but not much with real languajes like C
go should be pretty easy for you to pick up then
Eh, if you used php you basically used C 
Yeah I think so I heard a lot about go
The primagean just advertices go in every stream
try building a TUI vro https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea.git
i need a redbull
Then if I used html I used asembler
building TUI apps in my opinion the best way to learn go because it's pretty fun
Youve been shilling it so hard that i want one too
Ill take a look later with the computer
Use Adderall with coffee
charm has some awesome stuff for building TUIs
Hi! π
Idk what tui is but I am going to take a good look for sure
Today's drink: Matcha latte
here's a gif of one of my TUIs I made using some of their projects https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ceald1/HTB-TUI/refs/heads/master/box.gif

Oh cool
it's an app you interact with inside of your terminal

it was way before covid so it was all on site
Oh Yhh igu
How was it
both good and bad
Good cos if you did a good job you basically can slack off, bad because Karen from HR undermines all the IT work you did and decided to click a link she wasn't supposed to
You took my joke W1ld!

egypt wants to ban discord because nepal used it for organizing protests and they see that as a potential threat
how do boomers have such severly limited intelligence
They do realize part of the reason nepal protested is cos nepal tried to ban them from social media... right?
oh i did not know this
even more ironic
Tried? I think they banned almost all of them
australia is on another level ngl
i thought they were trolling at first
but now i know they genuinely have no idea
how the hell did you get australia in this mix
oh right thats funny too
i dont see why though you can barely communicate thru github?
thats what devs do actually bullying and nitpicking each other on prs
Banning GitHub its atrocious
also there is a dicussions page i guess that counts
there is no way that children under 16 are opening PR's and being rude on repos

Oh shit! Itβs him! Love the labs so far!
Espically the chains

Great! Mythical is a good Mythic C2 Intro (if you are not playing like @vapid wharf and still using sliver π )
There will be more of this, Chains/Minilabs is my favourite format
hi
My good friend Lavender over at white knight labs uses it all the time for work, so sheβs been bugging me to learn it so here I am.
But besides that I had some questions about ifrit if you donβt mind dming me @fossil sequoia
yea I don't mind DM
you did not answered my dm yet @fossil sequoia 
I read it backwards xd
He is busy bro.
Ifrit is more hard now ig.
I Blv it's elastic but just basic
Wait, he used sliver for that? π
Simon, I need a challenge. My brain needs to be tested
You want a challenge? What kind of?
Like if you want prolabs, I would suggest you do ifrit but with your own flexible loader.
But no Γ§2. 
I already have a few sitting around but I want to make one thatβs a lot more modular
An AD challenge or an enterprise network to own. I already had a taste with CPTS, and I want more.
Was reading through my notes and idk how tf I did it in just 1 week π
Was it insane machine?
It makes other insane machines look easy
And I'm pretty sure there's some unintended way i did
Yeah I skipped one little step too I think but still hard af
Like cobblestone is insane too and I've done it in one day
Ok no patches i see
So it was intended path
Sorcery keeps haunting me at night from a month ago
I did it in unintended way and wasn't satisfied
Won't do it again tho
Worth every minute on that machine
Darkcorp is a good start lmao
Unintended by using mysql to get a rev shell?
It's rare to enjoy such machines
Like the recent one #1424092683793727589 , it isn't worth doing but had to do for season
Maybe i just didn't like it idk
The escalation
I got this the day before this way was patched xd
Erebus makes some good ass machines
Him and Ctrlzero
Yeah but not darkzero
After knowing what to do, it feels good
It's just that I had to spend hours on a single tool that makes me biased
I barely have done any other machines than web/linux kinds
So sorcery shouldn't be hard
It is hard to me because I started hacking like 2 months ago
I learn while I do the machines
i also liked this machine, my first hard machine
Web is a good way to start in hacking to me since I come from web dev
The starting point got me pumped up big time
I think it is a great thing
Good work on the blog posts, can you dm me your blog link so I can read em later?
Oh I would like to see the blog too if that's ok

No the ones on Kerberos
Nahhhhh

Share the link here, will see other parts
But I never done this kind of stuff so I need to understand not just the tools but what they really do
alright
This is my outfit xd
But a bit less gay xd
Yes all my clothes are the same
The exactly same ones
I wear that black tank top even if it's freezing cold
People look at me like I am mental
And a lil zesty
Go for it
If you can get VL sub still, go for klendathu
yeah type of demon in islamic world
Prolab
hello guys
Oh hi falcon
It has, hope all is well. Doing well, just lacking in the sleep department
sleep, whats that
so guys im very new and im trying to get into the hacking world, i only have very basic LUA knowledge and nothing else, before i download linux and all that stuff should i reset my pc?
sleep: admitting defeat
Hey Simon


Is Monday 
hi!
welcome!
thanks
I would recommend you to try the pwnmachine that htb gives you so you can have a taste of linux
and then do some modules of the academy and the starting point of labs
Grab VMware and Linux for it
Kali is a good start
yeah vm is good
so the reason im starting this is cause recently i was victim of a ddos attack im wondering how i can become almost invisible on the internet
i've always wanted to start hacking but i dont have any knowledge at all
i've started one of the box attacks on the site but im kinda stuck on the login phase
you can never stop a ddos attack you can mitigate it
that sounds kind of unusual
Check out cloaked. Iβve heard a few good things about it but never used it. Itβs supposed to help clean you internet profile
how do you got attacked by ddos?
what i want to do is learn how to stay anonymous so that they cant even direct it at me
Ddos usually means they have your ip. Maybe leaked from a game or visiting a site thatβll expose to them
im not sure to be honest, i got in an argument with a random dude and he just told me he was going to ddos me and i had no internet for 2 days
oh shit
Call your isp, see if you can rotate to a new ip
ive reset my ip from the modem

and now its doing just fine maybe a little slow
never mess with dudes online π©
so i saw some vids online and ive heard there's a nice VM called whonix
and it says its pretty safe and good for beginner hacking
Just run a vpn if you want to hide your ip
tbh what you are asking for is just good opsec and best practices hacking wont do much benefit imo
π‘
if i gotta be honest i just got picked on and stood my ground idek why he got so heated up over a discord messages

π‘
don't engage with stupidity, it makes you stupider
this was the straw that broke the camel's back to be honest, thats why i wanna start to get a better understanding of how this works
understanding how they attack you is the first step to defending you isnt it
you can start by doing the basics
Get Started with the HTB Beginners Bible: https://www.hackthebox.com/blog/learn-to-hack-beginners-bible
which is this ^
yeah and ngl im already stuck on the login thing π
im talking bout the starting point box
hi
hi
oh i clicked on the beginner thing and it took me there
guys, how to learn CTFs? i'm a newbie
do academy
alright
do academy
anyway back to my original question
before downloading arch and whonix should i reset the pc
like the free rooms? what do i exactly do in there?
to erase any possible trace i've left behind
you learn stuff
kinda like reading something and doing it practically
yknow, i guess it'd be better if you run a live OS first. just to learn your way round before head diving
grab a cheap USB, at least 8 GB, i recommend at least 32 GB
download kali live, or tails, or ubuntu.
if you think your machine could be compromised maybe is a good idea to format it but at the end it depends on what you want to have installed on you computer
i dont know thats the point
i think whonix might be a little heavy for ground beginner.
i wanna be able to hack and be safe at the same time
arch is good, is what I use
plain arch
also, personal advice, either use proton or mullvad, or rent or buy yourself a few proxies.
ye i had installed it and spent 15 mins connecting it to the virtual machine
but maybe if you are a beginner other distros can be easier to start with
im dirt broke
proton vpn has free tier
then use free proton for now. pretty legit shit.
so VM doesnt hide ur ip
nope
but ur pc address
nope. not even close.
Either this is the beginnin of something great or imma get in troubles π€£
imagine you have a computer. that's it. VM is a computer that thinks it's the real system, while being ran on another system. like matrix.
so basically its a layer
if you stay whitehat it only helps you stay away from problems
you mean MAC? VM doesn't change that either. use a mac randomizer. kali has one built in
white hat?
yep gg
hacking within the legal boundries
ohh
sort of. imagine the "we're in a simulation" theory
don't do anything stupid is not worth it
nah im just tryna get an understanding of what actually is around me and also what i did wrong to get ddossed
About that..
π
Dude I tried putting arch on my burner pc with hyprland and it didn't even load
No gui no nothing π
we have three kind of hackers.
Whitehat, these are the pentesters, red teamers, the good guys with usually legal salary
gray hat, these guys walk in the fence, but put foot over it whenever they want. their motto is, it's okay till you get caught.
black hat. pure chaos. period.
all jokes aside whats issue tell me in a broad way i might be able to help
but first dont use hyprland cause its unstable
No seriously it might be it π
kde plasma is goat
I suspect there may be backups on the lab Iβm doing, how do I use rsync to view them @exotic pendant
and if any hyprland user is here and disagrees
bite me
tbh bro im not tryna get employed by microsoft i want a solid understanding of how all this works, how i can shape it to my necessities and how i can defend myself from wannabe e-gangsters
return to XFree86
banger logo ngl
@dusky leaf but seriously, dude. if you're starting, go get kali. just be around it. be curious to learn. you'll find your way.
I tried it on my burner pc with archinstall and I even tried with a Germany mirror because I can't download shit from my country's..
Anyway and when I put my login I either had a blinking (_), or on my VM when I tried it there too I had the chance to press super+q to access kitty and it brought a windows error π
Sorry for the big paragraph
so should i reset my pc since i got sensible data on here such as credit cards n passwords
before doing anything
its a hyprland specific issue then archinstall worked
again install something normal first
then do hyprland
oh, trust me, cybersec isn't getting hired in microsoft. and also, we don't call them wanna be e-gangsters. we call them noobs or script kiddies.(idiots who copy other's scripts and pretend they hacked nasa with ls.)
if you are going to get kali or any distro for hacking in the machine don't use it as your workstation
nooo, don't do that, dummy!
I tried plasma and it worked perfectly π₯²
no shit
HAHAHAHA
I heard it's the best shit tho..

not if i ddos myself first
get a cheap USB. search "how to run kali from a USB". that'll get you going.
i randomly play games on pc outside of ts im a construction worker so other than watching films on streaming community and randomly play warzon i wont do much on here
Huh? π
atm bro i got actually no possibilities
remember guys they can only dos you if you are online/reachable
by cheap i mean an 8 gb USB. it must be around 10 dollars most. it's cheap. trust me. no one's more broke than i am.
if you can't get a usb you have another different set of problems
aaaaaand he didnt 
i actually am in posses of 35 cents
thats some serious wealth you got there
it is what it is
debt?
yes
occasionally
Anyway what desktop environment shout I put on my arch?
I can't afford a USB drive rn
i see. well, in that case, i guess just use HTB free parrot OS VM for now. you DO Need a usb one way or another.
Type shit
i got an old ass 1gb usb
try all of them
