Hello everone, I am currently in the Network Services 2 Room
Currently in the Enumerating SMTP
I am supposed to get the mail name by following the process of: search smtp_version > options > set rhosts 10.10.10.10 > run
It does work but it doesn't show the mail name or the MTA but when I tried the same process on my local VM Box it does show them
I know I can just copy and paste the answer but I want to understand what's gone wrong
Thanks in advance ❤️
is 10.10.10.10 the correct IP?
no of course just an example
it's 10.10.101.132 right now
trying to include a screenshot of what I mean but I think it's banned here
!docs verify
Follow that link to verify your Discord with THM.
Does anyone know why the windows boxes I connect to today are really flaky. They keep restarting and saying unstable
I have made a bootable USB with this version of 'parrot os' but unable to see any 'live mode' option while booting it via usb.
Please help me with this!!!
there is option, might in BIOS, to choose what to load from what drive
adn might the VM is better option
why this happens?
not blocked
Sudo Security Bypass
no response
once i got into , but again got stucked

Hello
There is something wrong with Buffer Overflow Prep room
nc is refusing my connection
my openvpn is connected
flag{connection_verified}
yes, I also tried to terminate the machine and run another
need to verify first
is this time bug ? I am in France.
what time zone you set in acc
where can i get this information ?
usualy after midnight you can get new streak
sec
go in profile and go public profile

what flag is
i need to wait 1:00
then is now i guess
cool
in the content discovery room when Iaunch the machine it does not connect on port 80 .. it keeps complaining "Error response Error code: 405"
My VPN is not connecting to the holo room where I last left off a day or 2 ago, because I was trying out a 2nd room, and just finish it.
Everything should be fine. I killall openvpn beforehand. The holo room's network status is running. thm-Troubleshoot. The access via vpn page is all green. Although when I input the cmd curl 10.10.10.10/whoami, there is no reply. I still got 5 days of access left in the holo room.
I can't keep getting this nonsense every time I come back to any room where I left off.
are there any errors or warnings in the openvpn command output? (it should say initlization completed)
no error. and it did said initialization sequence completed
I don't think it was because of foxyproxy using zap? I closed the firefox, before turn on zap, and then open firefox again.
no, browser settings/configs shouldn't bother with openvpn, try regenerating and downloading your vpn config again
Oh I should had mentioned I did that earlier too. When the old ovpn failed. I went to the access page, regenerate a new one, deleted the old one, and use the new ovpn instead.
wait, you're using the holo openvpn right?
naturally
that's not the same as the regular one
the curl 10.10.10.10 check fails
you can only access the machines in the network,, try pinging them or accessing them in some way
ping fail
there's a bunch of windows machines, try some other way
what other way are there?
access the machines website?
hey people
i am a new one
i wanna know, that like,
i am doing the presecurity
so these things won't work untill we practice it or execute ou knowledge somewhere, right?
so, we can't hack in real world by the machine on the thm website
we need some software, or at least some app where we can practice our codes
what do we use for it
i am on windows 10 and i am a beginner
plz help me out
u mean their attackbox, or web kali linux?
idk anything
i just know kali linux is an os
the actual machines in the network that are running a website
nothing else
i mean that, if you wanna hack computer A, then you need to put your coding somewhere, idk it's name, you need to put the coding somewhere, you can't do it on thm attackbox of any path right
i am asking, that if I want to hack my phone, then i need some app or software on my pc or laptop in order to do it, what is that app where I can practice my skills.
app or something else
maybe that's called an attack box
have machines been very laggy/not respony for anybody else today
They've been fine for me so far.
hmm... i've terminated them and relaunched on a few machines and its the same issue only on my vm
Your VM is laggy?
no like the machines i have connected to via my vm
my internet is fine on my pc but seems to be something wrong with the connection between my vm and the thm machines
ill just wait a day and see if its better just kind of annoying
like im typing into the ssh connection and it doesnt actually type my text for minutes or trying to connect to the webservers on the boxes it just hangs and finally connects after minutes
you might have multiple tun interfaces, check with ip a if there's more than one tun0
thats it thanks boss
Gave +1 Rep to @celest wadi
any solve for this ?
Where are you running nc?
it seems that i can not pay
i tried paying both with paypal and card
and nothing happens
even tho i have it loaded with money
on my kali machine
also I tried from attacking box
why attackbox lasts 40 minutes and not 1 hour as it should be?
The attackbox firefox has been running very slow since a few days
Please suggest what to do
contacted it hope it gets solved
Can anyone help me with /etc/hosts here? I've added the needed stuff to the hosts file, but I'm getting this error. This worked completely fine before, I don't know what's causing this now
I've tried flushing the DNS on my Ubuntu, but it did nothing
I do have Mullvad installed, but it's not active at the moment

I was hitting the IP directly instead of annex.uploadvulns.thm
Hello, I've had this problem with THM's attackbox, not using any VPN's on my end, and my internet connection is perfectly fine.
It becomes horrendously slow on occasion. To the point where it literally takes seconds (2-4 secs. It varies.) to even move when scrolling up, down, or even loading anything when clicked. Is there anything that can be done aside from resorting to the use of openvpn?
i wanted to ask one thing, if someone would be so kind to tell me, the people who are mentors, do they work on weekend, or its unpolite to message support@tryhackme.com during weekend
It's rather not technical problem, so i dont want to bother you with it here, i just wanted to clarify, why when i was asked about additional information (my nickname and number of days of streak) nobody got, to me further. There is no issue, and sorry bothering here in tech help with this question.
wait, you guys don't get paid 
will do
Hello, is there any way to unlink THM-Discord token from our Discord account? And if possible can somebody tell me how?
You need a senior mod for that.
Not a senior, you want it removed from your current account.
Any mod will do.
Thanks for the information
Should i dm one or wait for one of them to see my request?
Wait until you see them.
What's the reason for the unlink ?
that room went private so there was likely a bug with it,
Actually, just DM me about it once you read that.
nope, if you've joined you still have access, newer users don't
if its public i can also try it out if you want
the private room joining barrier is a joke tbh, just need a different link,
in the content discovery room when Launch the machine it does not connect on port 80 .. it keeps complaining "Error response Error code: 405"
I also see docker running on it root@ip-10-10-225-124:~# docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
6fa1c9fdeab9 mpepping/cyberchef "http-server -p 8000" 8 months ago Up 2 minutes 0.0.0.0:7777->8000/tcp mystifying_newton
not sure what needs to be checked
no when I login to the attack box i get a shell
I am trying to troubleshoot why the website is not coming up
yes it is up
and it gives me the ip which I can connect via vpn
yes
Take a look at the robots.txt file on the Acme IT Support website to see if they have anything they don't want to list - To do this open Firefox on the AttackBox, and enter the url: http://MACHINE_IP/robots.txt (this URL will update 2 minutes from when you start the machine in task 1)
this is what the room says to do
you know what ... you are right .... thanks
I now started it and it is working as it should be
public and it is weird that when i ran the default web attackbox according to instructions (the webserver and payload "server") when i tried to contact them from the actual challenge machine it was impossible, immediately denied, i will try to do it later with some other (non tryhackme) attackbox
Hello, I have a slight problem.
I am in the Basic Malware RE room and i cannot unzip the task files.
Archive: strings1.zip
skipping: strings1.exe_ unsupported compression method 99
any suggestions?
Does the room specify an unzipping method, if not, can you try a different tool to unzip it?
Hm, could be a problem with the way they’re doing it, won’t know until they reply :p
If they need help they’ll come back ig
Apologies, I had to run out, bit of an emergency.
this also does the same when using sudo.
I'm sure the holo room "access to machine" connection to VPN is broken. I been trying since yesterday to regain access to it, but nothing.
Might want to investigate the issue between the link holo room, and VPN. #site-support message
I start by
sudo killall openvpn
sudo systemctl start->enable->status openvpn
sudo openvpn ./openvpn Cell-holo.ovpn
sudo ./thm-troubleshoot (And this one give me issue too as it refuse to change the color.)
Click the holo room start button, and check the access via VPN page to see if the holo server status, connected are all tick, and given me the internal virtual IP. I still got 4 days of access left to the holo room too, and counting.
Is it common for room to just break suddenly?
@gray loom How can I scan S-SRV01 if I cannot even access the machine.
The http://10.200.109.33/ website work though after timeout.
I tried that too, but didn't work
No.
That's the headache. Why the **** wouldnt the machine get connected!
The holo site still didnt give me the green accessed machine.
Anyone able to confirm if the Follina room is all squared away?
btw the "curl 10.10.10.10/whoami" cmd gave no response back. Its without the "s" to "curl".
Just this.
Is that so.
So, that one is broken since forever. the thm-troubleshoot can be ignored.
what else should I ignore?
You can ignore our snarkiness when we tell you just friggin move on with the network.
@smoky harbor Wait ur turn.
WTF? Why? That's no fun. Thisn't isn't D&D.... no turn waiting.
Hello again. I have an issue that I found no answer to at all
when I try brute forcing with Hydra to get ssh password, Hydra scans the password file (rockyou.txt) and keeps going even after passing the actually password.
I've trying with -f and -F and it doesn't work either.
the file contains more than 14 million passwords and it will take hours to finish on my pc, and note the actually password is at line 145 of the file
haha
hydra -t 16 -l administrator -P /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt -vV -F 10.10.25.54 ssh
lower case f isn't it? -f
I've tried both f and F
I don't know I can't wait until it finished the 14m passwords it will take more than 5 hours I think
it passes it like the others, doesn't stop
it's at 145 and I've let it go up to 600 before I stopped it
I gave u the exact line I used
sure
and another fun wall to stop me from learning today, I can't make the ssh connection with credentials >> administrator:alejandro
@gray loom in case u didn't notice I sent them
tried it and restarted the whole page, didn't work either
i know that I should bother someone to help me but I have no idea what to do
try terminating the current machine, disconnecting your VPN connection (just kill the process), log out of THM and clear your cache. After all this is done, go in reverse order to get back to the box (log in, connect VPN, start box, and give it ten minutes to completely boot). Then see if the same thing happens again.
If it continues, then I would say reach out to support.
will try that, thanks alot
also, if you are using a VM, then restart the VM. like, actually go into power menu and restart or shutdown the box. not just put it to sleep/standby
and hydra can be dumb sometimes, despite being a great tool. if you know the password, just grab that and like 100 other passwords and dump them into a text file to see if it does the same thing. if it does, it could just be hydra being dumb. make sure your kali instance is up to date.
and according to the man page, -F is for usage with -M, which itself is used to point to a server list for parallel attacks. since you are using one, I don't see why you would need to use the -F argument
I have bought the subscription, but the attackbox is so slow and laggy
Anyway to fix that?
there is a set amount of resources that are allocated for each box. it isnt going to be as fast as if you were using a VM or running your attack directly from you host.
what you consider 'slow and laggy' is probably normal for the box considering that you are trying to utilize a website connected virtual machine
well, I can't use my machine either because of the UDP ban in my country
its frustrating
how does a whole country have a udp ban?
trash country
where are you? russia?
china mainland?
nvm i found you
kind of makes sense, but sucks they did that.
Using the THM troubleshooting Script:
caused a lot of controversy
anyways, if you can't use your machine, then how are you accessing the site?
The site isn't blocked
its just the protocol
vpns that use UDP won't work here
only tcp would work
so then use a vpn that supports tcp
tryhackme don't have tcp
that has nothing to do with a machine. that comes down to your software choices
HTB does
I tryied to change the .ovpn configuration to TCP but it didn't work
most people use openvpn, but there are others.
I tried using openvpn but I can't because THM only supports tcp connections
UDP*
Hello, I’m having trouble with my my VM accessing web pages on Throwback network. It’s pinging them fine, but it keeps timing out in my browser
I found something interesting .. I created a txt containing random 100 passwords including the presumably right one "alejandro" and it actually didn't catch it as the valid password
Which room?
@sleek jackal 0 valid passwords found
my assumption here is the password is actually wrong as of the fact that I can't make an ssh connection using "admin
using "admin" "alejandro"
note that it's the right answer in the room
can you try administrator?
sorry i meant administrator
sorry just forgot
user: administrator
pass: alejandro
that's what i wrote as u can see in the screens above
@jovial mango do you have something to help me?
Screenshot?
give me the exact syntax you are using @nimble hatch
and which task is it again?
7? I did this room and it worked for me when I did iirc
Hello team,
We are facing some issues in connecting openvpn with holo network we have downloaded the holo openvpn config file and when we run it we get TLS error
dont bring down the whole country, for decisions of government
lets rather find some solution to this
unfortunately, we cannot help you circumvent a country's VPN ban
ah, i didnt know that is tryhackme policy, i mean is it a policy?
Getting round country blocks isn't ethical.
it's unfortunate, but trying that may result in a site ban
So helping would mean basically going directly against state actor that is writing law and can ban tryhackme in entire country?
ok, i get you 100%.
I mean more that you can be banned from the site
ok, then i am not getting you at all
i was born in totalitarian state, and throught all the history of the cold war the people from countries that were not totalitarian were helping people who lived in totalitarian countries to circumvent the censoprhip and restrictions
Is the logic that "its the law there" and since we are ethical we have to follow law whatever it is?
that is the least interesting aspect of this, i want to understand the logic of decision
if it is "we follow law of the country, whatever it is" i understand it
Basically
anyone get this while trying to connect to openvpn?

I need help
I tried sensitive data exposure task of owasptop10 room and the answer did not come up as the way described in walkthrough.
Exact info --
/Assets directory is not mentioned in source code of login page of web application
It is, what page are you on ?
Sensitive data exposure challenge
No I mean, what page of the web app are you on ?
/login
Show me a screenshot of where you are looking pls
A screenshot of the target machines web app, at the place you are searching for the mentioned directory
Wait, you are actually really searching on crakstation.net for it?
I thought that was just a some kind of fancy placeholder 😄
Why you are searching on crackstation for it?
That's not the target machine
Heya! i was looking to change my username but looks like there's no way ... any idea how i can do if i can? thanks
@lusty steeple And just so you know, make sure you are not messing around with machines outside of the THM network.
It's not a big deal by just looking at the page source, but just so you aware that THM will only have you attack machines that are within their network.
Attackbox firefox has been running too slow lately
So I configured an openvpn on my pc and them used the link inside the task to go to crackstataion.net
Ohh , I had to go to the IP address of target machine.
Sorry I messed it all
i have problem with openvpn connection
can anyone help me
openvpn take long time to connect after that the ping command output show there is a lot of packets loss
and machines dont work with me
all rooms not specific room ....not just the ping command all the machine not works
i installed the latest openvpn version and tried many configuration files
really now?
check the pinned messages first
my openvpn version: 2.5.7
ok give me a minute please
i don't have the permission to send images
i think this screenshots will explain the problem
Show a screenshot of your openvpn output when connecting to the THM VPN pls
it takes minutes like this some times done sometimes no and the target machines not works
Ye, it's not even connecting you
Could you send me your .ovpn file via DM ?
sometimes connecting me but the machines still not works
ok
Well I can only go by your screenshots and there you are not connected
So you might want to check on your side for connection issues.
Maybe try changing the network settings of your VM, if that's a VM
done
no not VM
Just checked, your .ovpn file works just fine
So some sort of issue on your side, e.g: #site-support message
so how can i fix it??
Did you read the link I posted?
So check on the things that are in that link, I can not tell you how to fix it when it's unclear what the reason for it is
could the problem be due to the .ovpn file use udp protocol??
if no i think the problem with ISP
good morning yall, is this room working for anyone? stuck at the loading tasks... https://tryhackme.com/room/hackpark
looks like video stuff may be hanging the page.. figured i'd ask here before trying to hack it 😄
Hello,
I have found using 7zip has solved the issue.
thank you 🙂
Gave +1 Rep to @smoky berry
let me check and open the room
i'm not even joined yet, so no need to join the room if you dont want to heh
video seems to work normally.
and whole page + room, what exactly is the issue, all the question and task loaded nicely for me
interesting.. i dont even have my adblock on, maybe pi-hole causing dns issues.. lemme check
ah yep, pi-hole blocking some dns requests
thanks @mystic sphinx
Gave +1 Rep to @mystic sphinx
nice, how does the pi-hole work otherwise for you, its interesting concept
amazing, blocks 30% of my dns requests lol no ads pretty much on any device unless i whitelist
I need to change my id as this one got some issue!!!!
I want to verify that id here!!!
So what I have to do?
And unlink this THM token
You need to ask a mod, nicely, to remove the current token.
Ok thanks!!!
Gave +1 Rep to @weary spindle
Can I dm him?
Ok
thank you for info, this is crazy 30% of dns requests connected to advertising
Gave +1 Rep to @waxen sand

Can anyone tell why the attackbox firefox is not running now
It works soo slow since a few days and doesn't connect mostly
Everything else works fine
Today's one hour ended.
Will share that tomorrow
hello, I've comleted the metasploit intro but the room still shos up as incomplete, even though all tasks inside are checkmarked. any ideas?
same thing with the burpsuite introduction room
are we meant to complete all modules for it to show up, and not just the one room?
ah i see. well not really a big deal anyway i guess, thanks
hi, do i need 181 streak to get the 180 streak badge?
No, you should have it.
so i should have the 180 streak badge at 180 streak? because i just hit 180 streak and didn't get the badge
Am i doing something wrong here ?
Im trying to fix my VPN that keeps timing out on me
you've downloaded the html page instead of the actual script
Hahaha thanks @celest wadi
Allright ive managed to run the script here but im still having some issues with the VPN where i get timed out very oftens
Im US east and using VIP US WEST but that shouldn't be an issue
Like i cant access any of the Koth servers , if im running a scan or anything it will just freeze
and i can see in the VPN box that it doing some kind of restart for some reasons
Multiple process or connection , something like ive closed it but i will try running it again since its still happening
More then one connection running?
Will try that right now , thank you !

hey guys, i got sended by a friend a discord promo link i didnt notice at first but then i saw that the link is wrong. everything was working well then i checked it on virustotal and found that its some ?phishing? site that just took me to normal discord promo.
what passwords should i change etc or its just a wrong virustotal malicious or something?
i need help because im scared that im gonna lose my money or accounts
the accept button etc was like every promo code else
start by changing your discord password and enable 2fa.... after that change the password on any places you use the same password... shadow would recommend getting a password manager to use different passwords on all places you use passwords
i do have 2fa and changed passwords on my discord accounts and already changed paypal and bank info but theres still some accounts that could be taken too
can i send you virustotal scan details and detection maybe you will know something about it @plush bay
on dm ofc
sure but if you entered your password and username and then clicked to login or accept the thingy you leaked your credentials and the process is the same as what shadow said above
no, like it wasnt fake link it was some fake link that took me to real one even there was my real paypal when i tried to accept it and it was working like real promo
Just completed Subdomain Enumeration but here is something I found wrong when I did do a fuzz I got the output

@jovial mango @sleek jackal @gray loom I think the whole problem now is the user password is not "alejandro" as it supposes to be
no I can't
I've tried million times and I've restarted everythink
everything*
I double checked when I edited the password file and left only "alejandro" and it didn't read it as valid
that was about 21h ago
10.10.188.146
holy crap 
I had no idea
let me try now
what answeres?
ya I did ask about that too
I complained that I did the enumerating right and it was a success but it didn't show the name
ya I copied it.. but only after I've tried 50 different ways, including on a local vm box
just like I copied alejandro
i didn't want to but I was stuck there for hours and I searched everywhere
I just had no idea that the machine in every task varies
if I wanted to just pass the tasks and continue the whole course I wouldn't have bothered asking 4 ppl in here, u included to get a solution
sorry I went a lil defensive, I just didn't like the idea that I cheated on this
I redid everything and it all works, thank you so much for your help bro ❤️
thanks guys @jovial mango @sleek jackal
Gave +1 Rep to @jovial mango
what do you mean 'hacking language'?
where is my rep?
I mean hacking world I guess
if you are talking about this being somewhere on the THM site it means clicking the little button that says start machine. literally you are deploying the machine so it can be used.
I mean what does "machine" mean here
Of course it doesn't mean to say your pc to go and heck somebody other's and it will start walking and go and beat another pc
srry bro, I don't control it xd
i know i was talking to the dumb bot
@sleek jackal does it work with mentions?

hey, posting my problem here since it seems the right place:
succesfully connect via openvpn but when i access to deployable machines, i get random drop-outs every 5 mins and they last 3-4 min. ran the openvpn troubleshooter and got the following output:
[+] Stable internet connection [+] OpenVPN is installed [+] tun0 exists [+] tun0 IP is in the correct range [+] Only one instance of OpenVPN is running [+] Confirming connectivity [-] Something went wrong -- please ask for further assistance in the TryHackMe Discord server, subreddit, or forum
thx if someone know a fix
Can you verify your account, and then show us a screenshot of when it restarts please.
!docs verify
ok, done the verify, you want me to screenshot the terminal of the troubleshooter if i understand ?
Not that one, your main VPN script.
whole terminal when i execute it ? is it safe ?
Even just around the error, would be fine.
But just to double check, you only have one VPN running?
oh, i think i poorly explained my problem sorry, there's nothing wrong with the vpn script, i lose connexion to the deployable machines even tho the vpn is working
Ah.
I see.
Try running this then
sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200
And if you lose connection try checking your script output, to see if it still says initialized
yeah it's always initialized, what i did was opening 2 terminals:
-one with the openvpn script running, always said initialized
-a second one pinging the machine i deployed, that's how i noticed connection loss happened frequently and lasted around 3-4 min, on whatever machine i deployed
thx for help, will update if it fixed
update: lost it again 😭
got it back after 3 min
still say initialised?
yeah didnt move
can ping google and all with no problem
just the deployed machine causes problem
Which machine are you doing?
file inclusion
even after reboot ?
Sometimes when you close the machine down, a rare occastion the script still runs.
sudo killall OpenVPN
Then do
ip a s

damn thanks
You should be good to go.
smart as fk humans
fixed it
Wasn't sure, I knew you used to be around more some time ago.
Yeah, but more frequent the last few days, compared to months?
should i set it back to 1500 now that it's prob fixed or it's irrelevant ?
I don't think it would matter, unless you can't connect to ssh etc.
Hello ! So we have a problem in my company about THM subscription. SO here is the case:
We have requested a demo for today, we have been given 10 seats, we added the team members to the team. There was 1 person who had already active subscription for a half year from now on. We added him to the team, he got the 7 week demo and then we deleted him and changed his seat with another member. So the guy who had sub for a half year now doesnt have a premium access ;/
This is more of a support issue, site stuff isn't dealt with on Discord, (Unless Jabba deals with it) You'll need to E-mail
oh okay, I will contact them via email, thank you!
Keeps happening daily
Please help

You can check one of your previous sub confirmation emails, at the bottom of that email should be a link to the sub management page where you can update them. You may be able to remove them from there?
Or email

I am trying to figure out what I am doing wrong with OpenVPN, anyone have a moment to help with troubleshooting the process and see what I might be doing wrong? 🙂
So I am running wsl - Kali Linux. I have my ovpn config file for my region. Open up Kali, sudo openvpn myfile.ovpn and on the website - https://tryhackme.com/access - it lists me as connected with an internal virtual IP. However, when I try to ssh to a course, I.e. Beginner - OS Security v1 Task 3 - it just hangs each time.
I do see a tun0 and tun1 - I did just do a sudo killall openvpn right before this, also. Huh.
Yes, it is listing an active IP address as the target machine.
Oh, I did sudo ifconfig tun1 down
K, I'll try that.
Hrm, I killed openvpn, cleared tun1 and tun0, and then re-did my vpn, and the ssh is still hanging.
Correct.
Negative.
10.10.121.159
sammie@10.10.121.159
pw: dragon
Should the IP be pingable if I am on the network properly?
And under the /access site, for "Networks" should it list anything? As if so, it doesn't. OpenVPN Access continues to list I am on a server, the server is up, and I am connected, along with my internal vert IP Address.
I assumed it would not respond to ICMP requests, but.
Yeah, I'm trying something new instead of VirtualBox/VMWare or dualbooting, etc.
...which might be the issue in-of-itself.
Will do. So at least from my end, I am theoretically doing everything correctly.
I was like, "...I've done FileZilla for ssh just fine and used it for other things in the past over the years... am I just dumb?"
No no no, I meant in general.
ssh
ssh sammie@10.10.121.159
Alright; I will also look into other virtualized options that are more stable.
Can do.
@naive dust Thanks again. 🙂

I've made quasi-progress: I can now ping 10.10.10.10 but I still am unable to ssh.
Fixed. We'll see if it persists.
I will do that right now.
I turned my Win 11 Firewall Inbound traffic from Block (Default) to Allow and I could ping 10.10.10.10 - I then turned it back on to Block (Default) and could still ping 10.10.10.10 shrugs
I don't know if that did it or if it was the thm-troubleshoot which may have taken a minute or two to actually work after it stated everything was good, but I don't know, I'll take it. =p
Are you running the VPN on windows or on your VM? Windows firewall shouldn't even be able to see destination of the VM traffic.
Win 11, WSL2 Kali Linux, which all commands are then being ran from via commandline.
Correct
Networking is funky, I wouldn't trust the OVPN to function properly in WSL or WSL2.
This is why I did not go into Programming or Networking a decade ago.
I know others have had good results using it, but in my opinion, you are better off using vbox or vmware as your hypervisor.
Well, I was trying to "stay current with the times" and I tried WSL2 instead of the normal dual-boot or VMWare route. It is working.. for now. I will see if I run into more issues down the road.
dual boot is not the 'normal' route anymore - hardware has gotten so good, even mid-range or low-range consumer hardware can easily run a VM
and WSL is pretty janky - MS is bad at virtualization, vmware and vbox are the two most popular windows vm platforms for a reason
@broken bear Good to know; dual-boot used to be the go-to for speed/performance. Thank you for the info. 🙂 I will take this discussion to a different channel to not clog it up further.

how to install kali linux all tools posible mod can any one tell plzz
you can download the prebuild kali image from kali.org and mount it into vmware or virtualbox it contains all the tools needed...
i am not a mod, but i agree with what @light vale says, you can get a image that already has 95% of tools ready, did the same thing and worked perfectly
you just have to run it as virtual machine and setup ovpn inside it
do you have dm's enabled for the server?
Yes @celest wadi
what's the error you get then? or does the bot just not return anything
Bot doesn't return anything when I enter the correct discord id
When I enter incorrect token it shows error
just to recap, you're using !verify <token>
cuz the bot seems to be working
Can you try it again please? I'm looking at the bot's console and trying to see if the error I can see is correlated
Did it
2 times now
Okay , I will try again tomorrow.
@zealous yoke is there any issue ith the Practice Tab in tryhackme. I am not able to see that tab . Only see Learn and Search
Not as far as I'm aware no. You might be seeing an experimental page that we're trialling. Could you use something like imgur.com to upload a screenshot what you see please?
Could you also send me your discord token via DM please?
Ah yes, that is a new design that we are trialling (: that is what you're supposed to see
What you're looking for is here
Is that A/B testing? @zealous yoke ?
Indeed
Interesting...
It looks good from that S/shot.
Yeah it just shows few rooms , can't see series like medium easy insane hard ...
They've probably been removed all together then. You can send us feedback on https://tryhackme.com/feedback if you would like (: it'd be very useful
how will that work with the old series that gives badges??? like overpass

Question about the payment? Do they keep charging you even you unsubscribe? Because i stopped automatic payment on my paypal, but do they still charge you?
Not sure if it will be recognised if you stop automatic payment only on paypal, so probably best to cancel the sub on your tryhackme profile page
But mailing support about that question might be more reliable

can you check the vpn:s device( tun0 ) mtu???
what do you get if you run curl 10.10.10.10/whoami ??? if you get an ip it means you are connected.... if you still have problems even though you are connected checking the mtu of the tun device could help
It doesnt seem like im getting any answer
same here
Type ip a s
also for the above it seems the vpn connected but then you pressed ctrl + c to stop it... you should just leave it running in a terminal window or tab after it hits: Initialization Sequence Completed
mtu 1500 for tun1
You are right but i couldn't connect to my room IP so thats why ive ran the trouble shoot
it seems when i type this my inet in tun0 is my vpn adress but i still cant connect to rooms ?
some rooms don't have websites or respond to ping.... hence use nmap with the -Pn flag to scan them and see what ports are open
What Shadow typed.
go go scrubz.... shadow gotta go for now
It responded to pings on the attack box tho
Can you show options?
of metasploit ?
Yes
Can you do ip a s
And show me
OR
count the tun*
Or are you working in the Attackbox & VM?
Not sure what you mean , i never use the Attackbox i just started to test it was answering to ping
Ok
In the terminal on your vm, type ip a s and count the tun
Yes.
That could be your error.
You only need one tun.
I also knew you had more than 1 running as I can see it in your script.
The weird thing is , even tho i did sudo killall openvpn
when i go to 10.10.10.10 still says im connected ?
Is that even possible ?
Do ip a s again to make sure.
i still have tun0 which seems to be the VPN ip but i dont have it running atm
Do you have tun1 ?
i do not
That should be you, good to go.
But i dont have the vpn running in any terminal ? haha thats what confusing me
Hahaha yeah ill just close and reset everything i guess😂

tried resetting cookies & manually sending a POST request to tryhackme.com. nothing works

do ctrl + F5 or changing your browser, it can get stuck with the previous machines info
does this show up as empty?
https://tryhackme.com/api/vm/running
nope still shows the instance that I was running
then you didn't terminate it properly
I even tried sending a POST request to https://tryhackme.com/api/vm/terminate through curl
fetch('/api/vm/running')
.then(r => r.json())
.then(vms =>

run this in your browser it'll terminate everything
doesnt seem to work. is '_csrf' the only csrfToken there?

Ah, I seen the cypher and though if it's not cypher the TLS handshake failed so I guess something was blocking it after.
Hey guys - need help getting certificates for learning paths. Can anyone pls tell me where to find them?
when going from the learn tab to view a path you should see a box like this somewhere:

Gotcha. thank you, do you know if i can generate certificates for modules?
for individual modules? I don't think so, they are only available for learning paths from what i know...
modules currently do not provide certs... though you can make links to the badges if you recived one of those
those links also point to a picture you can download and use
How would I go about doing that?
check your own public profile page... then click the green share room badge
gotcha thank you!!

Hey.... I'm really struggling with Sysmon Task3 ... it seems even on the provided VM there's no web access via the browser clients and Powershell rejects all the guidance commands
thm machines generally don't have internet access, those instructions are for installing on your own machine or windows VM afaik
It's specifically telling you to start their VM login and follow the guidance... seems strange?
just skip to run sysmon.exe, it's likely pre-installed
Yup, those instructions will be for installing Sysmon on your own system. The provided VM/machine will already have Sysmon(:
the problem is it's telling us to use the Github SwiftOnSecurity config but as far as I can tell there's no way to get the config on the box
you could easily transfer any files from your own vm by downloading them and serving with python's http server(just wget in powershell)
I'll give it a shot

hello, i'm currently working on Follina MSDT room and it seems that the exploit doesn't work if following steps from the Task 4.After uploading the doc and converting to docx when opening it returns an error mentioning that the file is corrupted and cannot be opened. I tried to spawn different machines but ...get the same results. Does anyone encountered these days issues with the machine? is it working for you?
there is no need for converting anything, make sure you run the follina.py command with -i tun0, transfer the file with curl/wget, you should get connections back in your running follina.py command :)

Not quite sure if this is proper channel, but seems best of those available. Looking for staff of TryHackMe as I have two credit card charges on my statement for tryhackme.com that I didn’t make as I have never heard of you. Is there someone I could start dialog with to investigate? If not I can just dispute the charges.
Hi! I need some assistance with my hacking streak counting - apparently, it was set to 0 even having answered questions yesterday and going back to it right now. (quoting @bronze vale since he's the MOD that answered more recently). Btw, my previous score was 25 - please, help me.
According to the API responses, I have "answer question" events on July 26 and July 27. Please, anyone?
hi! why my account's county are always UK ? I change it multiple times....
this started happening last night. Still happening tonight
I've tried several different server locations and regenerated several times. no joy
Hi, can anyone help me? I have a Kali VM running in VMWare. Rather than log in as root every time I created a user account and have been copying my files across to that account. However I just tried to log in to the root account again to change some file permissions and when I log in as root I have no menu bar, nothing. The background appears as a zoomed out screen with the task bar at the bottom (up until now the root account has always had a sidebar) and when I click on the desktop to zoom in the taskbar and everything disappears, the only option is to go to “activities” in the top left which zooms it out again
This sounds like a graphical issue - have you tried restarting your VM? If that doesn't work, you may need to reinstall Kali.
I’ve tried restarting the vm and the main machine. I might just put up with it and use the regular account
my netcat is not working properly , any solutions?
There could be a few reasons why netcat isn't working properly. Try running it with the '-v' flag to see if that provides more information on what might be going wrong. You can also try using a different port, or specifying a different interface to bind to.
same error
This isn't really the channel for this, #general is better for non THM issues.

email support for help
hi anyone,
there are a hecking tons of things available on THM, i don't know in which line to follow them https://tryhackme.com/hacktivities
there are modules, practice, recently added, networks!!!!
someone suggested me to learn the linux fundamentals first after downloading ubuntu on windows, and then learning presecurity,
well, the one who helped me into linux and ubuntu, i thank him
but please help me out in this one
ok
but i don't think it will make me a hacker
will it?
a coder is the one who makes programs and all
and a hacker is one who breaks it
that's what i guess
yea, it would be of course
but see this for example
why has it been provided...of couse for learning, and if we use all the resources available, it would make us better at it
but i am not able to understand, that should I do the rooms that are released everyday or should I just follow a path
i know, that i can't go in rooms until and unless i learn basics
ok
and what to do after paths?
okay
thank you very much @gray loom
Gave +1 Rep to @gray loom
ok bro sorry 😄
I made a request for my company to use tryhackme for business (tryhackme work), but I haven't received any response from tryhackme yet, is there any way to expedite this request?
When did you ask?
My question has nothing to do with THM but i really need to know to activate the history suggestion like pictured below : https://imgur.com/4QAQrhR.png
Should i switch to #infosec-general ? Or i can ask more about it here ?
Did you navigate through this page? https://tryhackme.com/business
anyone know how to bypass ssl pinning on bluestack emu?
Hello, I am having an issue with the Wreath room. I use the correct ovpn file to connect to this specific network. And the network's status was shown as started. However the first outward facing machine is not reachable. The error given is: no route to host. I did check via netstat -rn and ip route list that the correct route to the room's network is set. However this doesn't work. I can reach the gateway of the VPN. But nothing further than that. A traceroute command also just showed one hop to the VPN's gateway - which is also the gateway to the outward facing target machine. I did check the IP address I try to connect to, it is the correct one. I even restarted my whole machine and tried again. Same issue. Has anyone faced this before?
hi, is this room working for someone? https://tryhackme.com/room/thefindcommand
they made it private already
I'm getting no response for nbtstat or domain info from enum4linux
I'm not sure what's going on. Others are having no issues.
I'm in the Attacktive Directory room
No reply for nbtstat and "can't find workgroup/domain". Trying a full restart.
it's generally a good idea to try the same thing from the attackbox to check if it's something wrong on your end specifically
it likely is on my end but not sure what the issue is
Had the same issue. But couldn't figure out why that is.
pcap says it's going out but nothing's coming back
firewall? everything else replies
this is a bit frustrating
works okay in attackbox
maybe there is a routing issue? our own machines would communicate via the gateway from the VPN. I believe the attack boxes don't need that.
but if that is true, not much we can do
I would like to unlink this account from my tryhackme id can anyone help?
You'll need to ask a mod, if you see one, you could ask in passing conversation, or I'm sure one will see it at some point.
can someone help me with something in kali linux: whenever i try to run a root command it say "Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?
"
Run with sudo <command>
Yeah
