Has that email received emails from TryHackMe before (i.e. newsletters, announcements, etc)?
just one to verify my email
Alright thanks. I'd probably just double-check your spam/junk folder (because we have the word "hack" in the name, some email providers automatically send it there)
if you don't get anything in 5 mins, try again, and if you don't get anything in another 5 mins, I'll ask one of our support team if there's any thing further you can do
thank you, I have tried several times today with nothing in my spam box or inbox
Sorry for the troubles -- i'll see if our support team has any troubleshooting tips. Otherwise, I'll point you to our support team (as shadow helpfully provided) to get your account recovered 😎
Lateral Movement and Pivoting, can't connect with openvpn after updating /etc/resolv.conf can ping thmdc can't do nslookup. Attackbox keeps dropping vpn connection, tried ssh with IP as well, still keeps dropping. Any ideas?
hey @astral reef can you show the output of your openvpn terminal please? Also, what subnet are you on for that network please?:)
(i.e. 10.x.x.x (fill in the x's)
Hi Ben, 10.50.46.39
Sorry, how can I attach screen shot of openvpn log?
Hey Malina, would you mind telling me what e-mail provider/service your email is with please (i.e. gmail = google, outlook = microsoft)
If you'd prefer to DM -- please do! We're looking into this on our side of things and knowing the email provider/service would be very helpful 🙂
You'd need to very using the link below - but something like imgur would be good in the meanwhile
!docs verify
I'll check the status of this network quickly
@astral reef I can't see any machine that has the IP address of 10.50.46.39 (not even 10.50.46.*) (is this the VPN IP for you device? could you show me the network map you see in the room please?) i.e.
Sorry machine thmdc is 10.200.48.101
Alright thanks! I can see on our end that the machines on that network are running fine. You can ping but can't nslookup right? This sounds like a DNS issue
ok, I added nameserver 10.200.48.101 to resolve.conf
nslookup thmdc.za.tryhackme.com
;; Got recursion not available from 10.200.48.101, trying next server

Hey, I'm working through the Metasploit module right now, in the Metasploit Exploition - msfvenom section, when I click start machine, it automatically loads the attack box, usually I have to do that after first clicking that, and when it loads it just loads a version of Ubuntu with no desktop environment with no pre-loaded tools aswell, the User on the box is murphy, and I've figured out the root password via google, but I feel like this is a possible bug?
nevermind, scroll down more is the answer to my question :/
cool site though thanks
hey soo uhh just lost my streak 😦 got out late at work and timezone differences made it so i lost my streak tonight
anyway to get that fixed 😦
nvm still think its a bug
Mh? When you press the green "Start machine" button, it starts the target machine
Not the attackbox, so I don't see what the bug is ?
Hey thanks for responding, so yeah when I click the "Start machine" button it starts the machine aswell as opening an attack box, but the attack box has no desktop environment or tools loaded to it, it appears it's only on this instance, metasploit - explotation - msfvenom, as I went back to the path I was working on and everything loads like normal.
That's not the attackbox, it's the target machine, in this room the target machine gets loaded as in-browser machine
I seem to be getting a 404 error when attempting to download the OpenVPN file. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
anyone know what could be causing ssh to hang indefinitely on thm machines
it basically always happens after a couple minutes (if not right away)
note im connecting through my own machine through openvpn and not through the website
things like webpages and such load totally fine so im not sure what the reason herei s
Anybody having problems with openVPN on kali Vbox?
Can someone help me out with this?
Use full screen in chrome

Do you get a Automatic response everytime you send a email to test support? ^^
I've always received one.
Because I tried to contact them But got no confirmation email 😄
I'm sure they still got your mail.
oh okay, maybe I am just impatience, sorry ^
When did you E-mail?
Sunday
no i didn't
What about if i delete my account, can i be able to re-register using the same email address ?
I guess so, but that's just a guess.
So best to ask that in your support email as well
yeah, i did
just wondering how long it gonna take for reply...
Hello, i am the only one on trouble with exploitad network. ? I wait for seconds and seconds after typing commands on thmwrk1 machine. After reset it is the same.
Same problem with rdp and ssh
I tried to complete this room this morning and i have the same problem this afternoon. I will come back this evening, i will see 🙂
Hey is there any helpline number to contact the support team
There is only E-mail, see above.
Has there been a change to vpn recently? I used to be able to connect with openvpn from both wsl and "regular" windows simultaneously. Both on the same machine. This was to be able to connect with windows rdp and at the same time use wsl for reverse shells and such. It seems like this doesn't work since some time. I'm getting disconnects/reconnects, like only one connection is allowed at the same time.
Yes.
There was an E-mail & and announement.
But you shouldn't have been able to run two at the time?
About simultaneous connections? Or about regenerating config files? I have regenerated the config.
sup, not sure if this is the correct channel to ask but i cannot verify with the discord bot, could the problem be that I left the server after verifying once?
If it's a different account yes, if it's a new account it shouldn't be?
What error message do you get?
bot doesn't respond when I do !verify with token
but when I just do !verify it says i should use the token
You might need to ping a mod.
I'm pretty sure I was able to have two connections at the same time before, but not anymore. But I guess if that's not supposed to work maybe it was just some kind of misconfiguration before.
If they're online, sure.
In my experience, if you more than one open it will cause issues.
They would constantly restart.
yes, that's exaxctly what's happening
thanks! @broken bear are you available 
It's a bummer though, since it made things easier by not having to use the web based attackbox interface as much
I've never experienced WSL before, but why not just use a VM?
wsl is running as a kind of vm already, that's why it needs a separate vpn connection. So running another vm wouldn't really change anything.
But if you're running Kali Linux on VB/VMware you'd just need to use that?
Or does your system not have the resources?
this is only an issue when there is a need to connect to the target with rdp and at the same time wanting to use my wsl kali instead of the attackbox. So it's just more of an inconvenience.
it was just nice to be able to use windows software and wsl/linux software at the same time on my local machine by connecting both through wsl command line openvpn and windows openvpn at the same time. But if that's not supposed to work I guess that's just the way it is.
What's going on?
discord bot isn't answering me when I supply my discord token
Did you check your DM settings?
yea, it responds when i don't put the token
i've been verified 2 years ago but i left the discord somewhen and rejoined now
did you change discord accounts?
no, i can still see old chat
I don't know what to tell you then - that's the extent of my knowledge about how the bot works. You dm the bot with !verify <token> and it links your THM profile to your discord account
hmm okay thanks for trying 😄
Problem solved, I installed freerdp in wsl and used that instead of the windows rdp client. Now I can do it all via one openvpn connection 🙂
Thanks for your answers though!
Gave +1 Rep to @weary spindle
oh boy there are tons of reasons why using wsl is a bad idea
a huge part of it having to do with networking
another huge part of it having to do with access to your host machine and problems that could cause
a normal virtualbox vm is safer and does not have said networking problems
I have yet to encounter any other issues than the fact that the network is nat'ed
but please, if there are any resources to read up on potential issues I'd be happy to know 🙂
some security issues surrounding WSL. partly why I dont use it
I personally haven't had any issues with networking through WSL, but you might wanna read up on how some of the scripts and programs you run inside it use python. specifically ctypes. a little hazy on details, but as I understand it, WSL uses ctypes to make API calls and invoke PS on the windows host. This can potentially bypass any AV installed and allow for malicious code to be ran on the Windows host directly. @naive dust
hey, I think I'm having a problem with the AttackBox for Operating System Security
sry, I'm just stupid and just figured it out. I'm a noob and didn't realize that while trying to ssh the password doesn't appear while you are typing it.
thanks anyways

Hello, I am having trouble with using machines on tryhackme. I am connected to OpenVPN and the machine in this room is working fine https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn#. But all the other machines aren't working. I always ensure that I am connected to the VPN server, then start the machine and copy the IP address and paste it to the browser(chrome) and then it shows "Site refused to connect". How do I fix this issue?
Linux fundamentals 2
Oh, ok tysm
Interesting, will do some research of my own! Thanks!

It works now, thanks :)
Reset your password.
I tried to login to my account after a month almost and it asked for my credentials which was unusual as it I was always logged in (maybe there is a timeout period), then I go on to enter the credentials that are saved in my google account but it displays - "Incorrect email or password". Then I try entering it on my own but still it shows the same message. Then i reset my password , but still same response. Till now I have changed my password 3 times , still same response
done thrice already
My profile is visible publicaly
my profile link
are you using a password manager that is storing the password for you or auto-filling the field for you? Have you tried with another browser or even another computer? And yes, even if you keep the tab open and/or have the open to remember me selected, there is still a limit on how long a session can last before it times out or it expires.
never suggest doing this normally, but try using another browser (or even another computer or a mobile device) and try logging in. If it doesn't work, try setting the pw to something super generic to ensure nothing is getting mixed up and make sure caps lock it off ,etc
Tried all of it except the computer part but I also tried to login through my Android phone
same thing through your phone?
Yup
are you using a pw manager to hold the pw for you?
Yes but I also tried typing it on my own
do you have any other active sessions? like on another computer or inside a VM?
that you could use to at least make sure you can access the account and navigate?
did you change the email perhaps?
I didn't change the email and I don't have any access sessions in any vm
have you tried using your username to log in instead of the email?
and to clarify, I meant the value being input into the field. Are there any extra or hidden characters? Are you manually typing it in or are you selecting it from a drop down or auto-fill menu?
I would say try the username since it allows for either email or username along with your current password. If it doesn't work still, you can try changing the password once more, but I would suggest reaching out to support at that point since they may be able to see what is or isn't happening when you try to authenticate.
shadow lurking on me
Thanks guys
no problem
try to be as clear as possible on explaining all the troubleshooting you have already tried as well as any potential variables recently which may or may not have inadvertently had an impact on you being able to log in.
For the sysinternals room, after starting the VM, and then starting the attackbox, I am getting a linux machine and not a windows machine.
if you look at the bottom on the right of the attackbox split view does it look like there are 2 tabs??? and if so can you click them to see if one is windows
Thanks for the response! I do not see any tabs unfortnately
There seems to be RDP creds provided
So that machine seems to not open in the browser
yeah that was the other possiblity
Hello, if I don't have a premium account on TryHackMe, could I get certificates?
Technically yes, but for some certs you have to complete a path and I assume in that path there are sub only rooms

Done
You’ve emailed three times withjn the last 24 hours, I’d like you to checkout how many site users we have and invite you to be patient
Alright, thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @bronze vale
But please take note that i recreated a new account today.. with my student email and a new username which i DM you... should resend an email correcting those informations ?
I can still keep my previous account and progress, if there is a possibility of changing the username
Not as separate emails, no
i want to preserve my previous and first account, so not to lose my progress but i really want to change the username
the new account was created today.. i can delete it if there is a possibility of changing my username on my previous account.. please can you confirm that to me
You already asked about that and got an answer, what other answer you expect to get by asking that again ?
You said THM as well as paypal is declining your card.
So to reach out to your bank asking about it is really the thing you should do at this point
please🙏 can i get a confirmation that my username can be changed.. then i will deleted my new account and put back my email in the previous account, i really don't want lose my progress the previous account
You are being very impatient.
If you get an answer to your question in here, that's fine, but don't push on it if you don't receive one.
Wait for support to reply to your email and go from there.
Also, I don't see why you would lose progress on your account.
A username change should also be possible, but is done via email.
Thanks you very much

Hello! I tried to configure OpenVPN to work with tryhackme but it seems that my internet provider has blocked it along with some other VPNs since it stops at "TLS: Initial packet from [AF_INET]...".
Is there any way to bypass that? Maybe open a connection through a different port or smth else?
To any mods out here. Tutorial "Upload Vulnerabilities" "/room/uploadvulns" Task 4, the upload site automatically redirects to youtube: Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up.

Hello! I want to buy premium. When I click I get redirected to chargebee. Is there a way to pay via stripe or skrill or something else?
We use ChargeBee for subscriptions.
If you want to pay via stripe, you have to purchase a voucher: https://tryhackme.com/subscriptions
The problem is that to get a student’s discount you shouldn’t pay with vouchers (email support told me). They can be bought with stripe. On the other hand the normal purchases use chargebee. That’s a pity :(
Due to privacy reasons 🙃
Thank you for your support!
I will probably use chargebee in this case
I found the solution. In this case I started another VPN on port 443 and then started OpenVPN with my ovpn file. Now it works!
Hi just wanted to inform you, that my OpenVPN file got broken.
Last event messages:
2022-10-26 19:07:47 UDP link local: (not bound)
2022-10-26 19:07:47 UDP link remote: [AF_INET]34.253.19.14:1194
if someone else encounters that kind of issue:
Downloading the file from the access page led me to a 404 page, and regenerating the file did the job. Maybe the OpenVPN Access file gets deleted from the VPN Server after some time passed?
How old was that vpn config?
Since there has been emails going out to regenerate and download a new one due to recent changes
If you receive a 404 when trying to download, just regenerate again, wait a couple of minutes before pressing download, then download
Hello, how do I start WIN machine in windows fundamentals 1 without Remote Desktop? I can't also use AttackBox because it's only for 1 hour a day. Is there a way to run the machine or I have to wait till tomorrow?
You can connect to the THM VPN from your own attacking machine, then you will be able to RDP into the target machine
!vpn
Actually the target machine for that room starts within the browser
So there is not even a need to rdp, unless you want to
Oh so I just search the IP address in browser?
No, you just start the target machine and it's opening in split view, same as the attackbox
Just with the difference that it's not the attackbox
Oh, okay. Tysm!
Oh, maybe i missed it 😄 I think the vpn config file is like 1 or 1,5 years old 😄
i am newish to tryhack me and im getting real frustrated with the attack box
when i launch ubuntu it keeps on failing after a few inputs and resetting
The TryHackMe remote server is not currently reachable. Please check your network and try again.
any idea what im doing wrong?
was able to resolve, by adjusting path. trying to ssh into attack machine, I have been trying with my userid and then tryhackme@ip address, neither one works. Should I be using some other user or is there some other way to SSH into attack machine
You said you're connected, and you can reach 10.10.10.10.
Why are you trying to connect again with the sudo openvpn command? You're already connected.
what is the king of the hill chat room??
#koth and #koth-voice-chat are the channels on discord for king of the hill stuff
and king of the hill is competitive hacking game where you fight for flags and root/king
Please un-link me from discord so that i can re-verify with my previous account
when i tried i got this response from TryHackMe Sorry, you already have a token on this account.

that works perfectly!

I have a problem with the ssh i don't know why i'm connected to the vpn http works but ssh give no output (room: Intermediate Nmap) can you help pls
Where does it say you should ssh into the target machine ?
Or you already at the stage where you found the creds?
I found the creds and i need to connect to ssh with the creds but when i type ssh ubuntu@ip-add i got nothing no output no place to put password nothing it's just like bugging
Is your attacking machine a VM?
And if so, do you have a personal VPN running on your host machine ?
yes i'm useing a V.M.
no idon't have any host on my machine
i'm just using openvpn on the VM
If you check ip a do you only see a tun0 interface or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc. ?
Only tun0
Try that in a terminal, then retry ssh.

Is the tryhackme website really safe for payment???
Yes.
I had bought subscription 1 week ago from other's card since I don't have card and today also someone tries to pay from the same card and also on that day there were two payments made for which I have written mail to support team but they say only one payment have been done. I have also send them the screenshot claiming to have two payments. Can someone suggest what to do now????
If support said there was only one payment then that's what's happened.
Support is the only person that can help with this matter.
And who was the one requesting for payment today on account of tryhackme ??
🤷
You really need to contact your bank
And pro tip: don’t use someone else’s card, it becomes really hard when asking for information
hey, yesterday I bought 1 month of premium but I still can't access the premium rooms, I didn't receive any confirmation email but I can see the transaction movement on my bank account. what can I do?
thank you
Hey, is it possible to do task 12 in Content Discovery without attackBox? https://tryhackme.com/room/contentdiscovery I am stuck on executing those commands. It says that it can't find the common.txt file, which is the wordlist. How do I get that wordlist so I can execute it in my computer?
You got a VM?
I don't know if I have virtual machine, sorry. How to check wheter I have it?
How do you normally do THM?
Start the machine, use OpenVPN and open the IP in browser or use SSH to connect via terminal
So Kali?
Yep, I use kali
Install SecLists on your Kali then.
Oh ok
Or, you can take the wordlist off the attackbox using a python server.
I am installing seclists :) Tysm.
hello all, im having trouble connecting to the vpn
any help would be highly appreciated
It'll install it to usr/share/SecList btw, not usr/share/wordlists
Small annoying detail
I have my debit card but credit card was must for the payment. So I had to borrow it. And also this was the first time something like this has happened to me. I think the customer support on TryHackMe should improve its service. As we see it is a very good platform to learn for giving a better service will be good. And till now also I don't know how the credentials of the credit card got compermised. Very unsatisfied of the customer service. Except for that its a veryy good platform.
I'm sorry that you feel that way.
When a payment doesn't show up on our services, there's nothing we can do, whether you're happy with that or not I'm afraid.
Anyone else having issues resetting a password? It won't email me the reset password link
Kind of a vague issue since I'm sure there aren't a lot of people trying to reset their PW atm
Did you check spam folder?
I've checked everything. I know I'm using the correct password but still won't let me log in.
Are you putting in the right email?
Are you getting any other emails to that address? From anywhere?
Could be an issue with the provider
Yup no issues with that email address from anywhere else.
Send yourself an email to test
I did from my work earlier.
Yep, you're right, I already figured it out.
That's...weird, did you get the recent VPN change email?
I did yes and my latest receipt for my monthly subscription. I emailed support but it will take 3 days. Just wanted to see if anyone else is having the issue
I'm running openvpn version 2.5.7, and still cant get connection established message
Best to show the openvpn output you get.
To share screenshots you have verify first
!docs verify
Did you already regenerate and download a new config file on the access page ?
yes
Also trying to switch vpn server ?
also yes
Was it ever connecting previously?
yes i connected to it earlier today
Since it last time connected, did you change anything?
Like having a personal VPN on your host machine, in case that's a VM.
Trying to connect from a different network etc. ?
literally nothing changed
try to regenerate new file?
my windows machine was scheduled to automatic restart and download an update... it happened while i was solving some stuff
since then it never worked...
i tried regenerating a new file, changing the server, checking my network connection
Are you using bridged or NAT in your VM settings ?
Might want to try changing to bridged to see if that changes anything
sure in a min
sorry to jump in late but have you also tried the fix in the pinned message ? changing the "cipher AES-256-CBC" to "data-ciphers AES-256-CBC" in the .ovpn file
Anyone have advice for me to get a new holo vpn config? Keeps giving 404 when I try to download. Other networks work. Tried other servers. Left the room. Signed out of THM. Cleared cache. Re joined. But no luck.
can you help?
My premium subscription is not active plus I've lost all of my gained levels
PS I'm not talking about streaks
so i got try hack me and the attack box was laggy so i got vmware and got the newest version of kali linux to do the first box where you need to hack into the bank. I got gobuster and installed seclists correctly i think but everytime i try to use it its not showing up
it says error on parsing arguments: wordlist file "common.txt" does not exist: stat common file or directory
i used gobuster dir u- https://10.10.82.226.com -w common.txt dir
Guys I just broke a 195 day streak and Im sort of freaking out, I know I didnt miss it, I schedule the same time every single day to do it. Please is there anyone who can look at it? I worked so hard on this.
I did my challenge today and it said streak 1 at the same time I always do it
try refresh page
I did, I even did extra challenges. Tried on 2 devices as well and it says the same on both. At first I thought thats what it was and even logged out and back in
The error means you have dont have common.txt in your current working directory
Im gonna be so freaking bummed if something caused it to break
you can email the supportr if you lose strike to gets restored for you
gobuster dir u- https://10.10.82.226.com/ -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt dir
I got it to work now thank you, but when the scan finishes it doesn't show /bank-transfer like it does through the attack box
It shows some others like /css /fonts/ images but it doesn't show /bank-transfer
Is.... bank-transfer... in the common wordlist? lol
The way that works is it takes every word in the wordlist and jams it at the end of the URL to see if it exists. So, if bank-transfer isn't in the wordlist, naturally it won't show up in the scan. I cant speak to any discrepancies between seclists and the list on your box. But that would be why it wouldn't show up. You can also always check /robots.txt files on web servers to look for possibly hidden pages.
im not too sure, so seeing as seclists as a ton of different txt files would i have to use every single one to find as much as possible?
so for now im guessing i just need to use the base one that comes with kali in order to follow the tryhackme boxes
or rooms
Dont' just use all the wordlists. They are separated by source, it does not make sense to use a wordpress enumeration file for hash cracking.
ah ok thank you!
I lost my 50 day streak because I wasn't recieving the email to reset my password as I was on mobile away from home. Email just never came. I have a streak freeze I was unable to use. Do I have any options to fix this?
That room is best suited for the "split screen" machine that comes with starting the machine in the room.
As www.fakebank.com is a real website.
I know you've used the machine ip, but the word list used for that room is also on the Desktop of the machine.
Hello all, I'm not able to download vpn config
Regenerate your openvpn config
The page itself isn't working
this often happens with me. Try open in new page and click again in button. I know this not making sense, but is the one of ways i found to ""bypass"" 404.
Can i cancel my subscription before the ending date ?
I believe it works like other subscription services in this regard, you cancel and you get the remaining time until your renewal date
@bronze vale
Is it like this for most machines?
Or rooms
Just a minority.
Awesome thanks
Hi, is anybody has a problem with THM server ? I can't connect to few machines ...
even by split screen ..
Please explain more detailed on your issue
Hi, i wanted to connect to a windows machine but since it doesn't work like on Linux where i just use ssh i don't really know which program to use for remote access to the desktop
Use Reminna.
hey fam,
if the connection to the thm network is all good, but no ping replies from a machine, network just too busy? ..have tried a couple machines, set new server, no openvpn config file
I'm in the Basic Pentesting room and trying to use enum4linux to enumerate the machine. However, it is not able to connect. Receiving an error of "Cannot connect to server. Error was NT_STATUS_NOT_FOUND"
@crystal marlin. Tried to connect 3 machines Hackerween, i'v Got ip but split doesnt work, i couldn:t download vpn pack too.
Are you connected using a vpn or the web based machine?
ok. perfect. I just had this problem myself. 🙂 Try this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Kalilinux/comments/tchtlh/ping_does_not_work_in_wsl2_kali_linux/
Oh. That's also for WSL.
Are you using WSL?
Though maybe it will still work.
unfortunately not, but good to know!
can get ping replies from google and other devices on the network, can ping the thm 10.10.10.10
Not all machines respond to ICMP Request
Just cause you aren't getting a ping back doesn't mean anything is wrong
In fact,. A lot of machines on THM are configured this way
Try an nmap scan
What you mean by split doesn't work?
What do you see in your browser then ?
So for the warzone machine for example ?
didn't think of this, thx

Are you using any personal VPN on the machine your try to connect from ?
I always use vpn pack from Access - - HTB
No I'm not asking about the VPN used to connect to the THM or HTB network, I'm talking about a personal one, like Proton, Nordvpn etc ..
None
K, well try a different browser or try to open the website in your VM to see if it's working there
Other than that you might have to get to download the VPN config.
If you get a 404 there, try to regenerate and wait a couple of minutes before trying to download it

Hello. I have a problem about accessing the lab website (room: Authentication Bypass ; Task: 2). When i go to the link provided (http://10.10.162.210/customers/signup), it loads forever. I'm connected to OpenVPN (i checked via the Access page), i also have access to all other websites (like Google), its only this website i can't access. Anyone know how to solve this? I can't do the lab at all without accessing that website
yuup check the vpn troubleshoot script
as that website is accessable to shadow so somewhere in your vpn connection lies the problem
I followed every step, come up in the end with this output:
[+] Connectivity checks completed!
[+] You are connected to the TryHackMe Network
Your TryHackMe IP address is: 10.14.35.10
Still can't access to that website (http://10.10.89.165/customers/signup). It loads forever like i said before, this is weird huh
No idea if this work but try to clear chace maybe?
Alright lemme try
Nope doesn't work, i even restarted the machine but still nothing
The connection has timed out
The server at 10.10.89.165 is taking too long to respond.
only tun0
The vpn troubleshoot would have picked up multiple tun*...
I changed VPN servers from EU-VIP2 to EU-VIP1, launched the github script and got same output as above (successfully connected to thm network) so i don't think its vpn servers
did you regen the script and wait?
Just in case, this is the output of the script:
[+] Stable internet connection
[+] OpenVPN is installed
[-] tun0 interface does not exist
Would you like the script to attempt a connection automatically (Y/n)? Y
[+] Connecting....
[+] Connection Process completed successfully!
[+] tun0 IP is in the correct range
[+] Only one instance of OpenVPN is running
[+] Confirming connectivity
[+] MTU value OK
[+] Connectivity checks completed!
[+] You are connected to the TryHackMe Network
Your TryHackMe IP address is: 10.11.7.66
Happy Hacking!```
Yep, redownloaded the script, regenerate a new certificate, repeated the process
Just in case, this is my ip a s output: https://pastebin.com/ZthbScpK
can i change my thm username?
Email support. And ask politely
What room are you doing?
Authentication Bypass ; Task 2
Username Enumeration
So going on http://10.10.247.127 and adding /customers/signup manually?
No, clicking customers hyperlink etc.
No, I'm not on my laptop.
Quick fix, use the attackbox
Yeah i guess, anyway thank you for your time.
So even more basic, first step would be to try and ping it
If you can ping it, then you move on to more troubleshooting. If you cant ping it you definitely have an issue at the VPN level. Also reconfirm the IP you're hitting is accurate and the machine is still spawned
However based on what you're showing, I do not think this is a VPN issue
Ping actually work
Okay so you can get to the box, your VPN is indeed working
Yup
So likely, this is an issue with the service on the machine. And Im just catching up. Did you terminate the machine and respawn it?
I did 3 times yeah
can you curl it?
I even switched VPN servers 2 times, regenerate certificates, redownloaded the GH script
curl IP/path
My local Burp proxy is turned off just in case:
Do you happen to have your browser pointing to burpsuite and burpsuite closed? OR
okay haha
Its definitely something with the browser. I think. How is your VPN connected, are you connected to VPN on your VM and using the browser in your VM?
Yea, i'm connected to OVPN on my VM and using Firefox on the same VM
No proxy are setup on firefox, i'm using default connection settings
We're getting closer at least:
- VPN Works
- Ping Works
- Curl Works
- Burpsuite off on foxyproxy
- No Proxy setup
Yup exactly, i'm still looking around on my firefox settings but i'm 100% its all by default because i never touched it
Is there another browser installed to test with? I dont have my parrot or kali vm's up right now so don't remember
Lemme install chrome rq
If it does work in chrome, then naturally we can at least determine theres something off with firefox
but at least you can get on your way. Also naturally since you can ping and curl it, you can still still continue working with your CLI tools in the meantime
So you should be able to get through task 2 while you figure all this out
Can someone help me out with this?
which metapackages are used on the Kali Machine? 
how are you trying to access it?
Thought I'd get back to you, in case you haven't found a way to do it.
But the webpage worked for me when I tried to access it.
Ladies and gentlemen, have any of you experienced the shell duplicating your command when pressing tab to autocomplete? And how did you solve it? I am using Kali and ZSH 5.9

Hi there, this channel is for THM related support, I see you already posted in general.
Someone will answer eventually, however Sunday is a big of a slow day.
Thanks Scrubz, I wasn't sure where to post this question, is neither general nor THM related 🫥
I was doing linux privilege escalation room and in task 11 Privilege Escalation :NFS I am getting the same error every time as 'GLIBC_2.34 ' not found. Can you tell me the error as I tried everything but the same error again and again.
Hello! I'm trying to connect to the vpn but it's not working for some reason.
Tried to use the troubleshooter but it doesnt detect that OpenVPN is installed despite it being in the system (Used it for HTB too and it worked there)
It just hangs and doesnt want to connect
Using Black Arch
Did you try to change server, press regenerate and download a new config file already?
Could you ever connect to the THM vpn previously ?
I havent done any rooms in over a year but back then yes
Is this a VM that you try to connect from ?
Any personal VPN running on your host machine ?
You from a country that might block openvpn ?
In particular the UDP port, or you on a wifi or a network in general that blocks that port?
I think HTB uses TCP, thus it might work there but not here
Maybe my uni is blocking it? I'll try again when im home
Uni is more than likely blocking it.
Had an issue with Fortigate blocking some stuff before
Ye, there is a good chance it's blocked since you said it's a uni network
You could ask the Uni ICT to unblock port 1194.
theyre off for the day but I'll ask them tomorrow
Fantastic.
They may or may not unblock 1194 for you.
If they don't, you'll still be able to use an Attackbox.
Happy Hacking!

Hello, I'm having a problem with my uploaded VM, I uploaded a Windows Server 2019, and the materials tab showed my VM is successfully converted, did attach the VM to my room. But when I pressed start machine it just did nothing, waited for like 15 minutes, refresh and still can't start my machine.
Hi guys, for the LinuxFundamentalsPart2 room, Using SSH to Login to Your Linux Machine.
I started the attackbox, entered ssh tryhackme@MACHINE_IP , but the password provided "tryhackme" does not seem to work, what am I missing here?
ssh tryhackme@10.10.87.55 in my case.
did you copy/paste password or manual entry ?
manual
Not sure how to answer that, I have been a programmer for the last 30 years, all I am saying is that the password provided in the documentation is not working for me. Yes, I use a mouse. And I have keyboard.
Copy the password and when you click on the terminal
Hit your mouse wheel.
Permission denied, please try again
or Ctrl+Shift+v as paste
Just to confirm, the IP is the target machine, and not the attackbox.
Well, that also does not make sense to me, the IP I try to ssh into, is the attackbox, but those are the instructions.
Would my terminal be open if I didn't?
i also cant connect to that ip that you provide
No.
And Yes.,
That button starts a different machine.
I will start over now. I will terminate. And follow your guide
DONt
Stop your attackbox.
I just scanned your IP that you gave and that looks like the Attackbox.
OOPS, sorry, too late. Starting a new one.
out of scope. I also rly like crypt serries. old but good
Going forward, Screenshots will help troubleshoot your errors.

@royal mural
You need to send it here @sharp bison
Ok thank you
Well, I did as instructed and clicked on Start Machine, now I see my IP on top but the actual box is not yet there. I assume now I need to start the attack box?
Yes.
Attackbox is the box your attacking from.
Any rooms with a green start machine button is the "victim"
y0. anyone know a way i can keep the openvpn connection alive without having to interact with the website? if im running an extensive gobuster/ffuf scan, after a while of leaving it alone, the vpn will die out and i have to reconnect
if it dies the gobuster/ffuf doesn't scan the directories properly correct?
The VPN shouldn't die out, is your connection stable?
Are you using the latest open VPN file?
yeah
latest open vpn file. and i'm direct connect ethernet to modem
i thought its supposed die out if it goes idle to long?
No luck
@royal mural are you sure you're using correct password?
You aware you try to ssh into the attackbox?
do a right click and copy and paste it to a text file to make sure its correct output and then paste it in the terminal if it is. sometimes the copy paste doesn't work properly
tryhackme is suppose to be the password. I typed correctly as the user
case sensitive to
sorry, its all the same. I copied it, I typed it, it's just not the right password
Uhm, it seems you didn't understood my message.
You are trying to ssh into your own machine (your own attackbox) rather than to the target machine
what is the IP of the target machine please?
Let's use the IP address of the machine displayed in the card at the top of the room as the IP address and this user, to construct a command to log in to the remote machine using SSH. The command to do so is ssh and then the username of the account, @ the IP address of the machine.
Hi how can get a new external IP address for my tryhackme account?
that yellow line has to be the thm ip
switch servers @naive dust
you shouldn't need a new one tho
Doesn't for me and I'm pretty sure @weary spindle also keeps it idle a lot (?)
What's the error message when you disconnect
@glad oyster scrubz?
Maybe try run openvpn as a service
so you know how when you connect the vpn it says initialized
after a while goes buy it shows some different output
thats a disconnect ?
yeah. i use sudo openvpn
@royal mural @crystal marlin is hte one who found it
i just highlighted it for you to make it easier
but glad its working
I am not sure I can get back out the whole I just dug, but thank you all very much. This was painful.
Yup.
Its always on.
retracing your steps is always good for learning to get back where you were
if you can't get it again then you didn't learn the concept
from time to time you will get it all. is bit complicated on start but we all get it
@weary spindle oh so even if it doens't show that initialized message, that doesn't mean it died
yeah. it will all start getting clearer and clearer for you @royal mural
don't get discouraged
anybody seen this before, im unable to run the vpn file. never had an issue before until now
When was the last time you Regened it.
regenerated VPN file?
Yes, there was an E-mail and an announcement went out to Regen the file.
Everyone had to do it as changes were made.
it changed shadows vpn ip....
It changed everyone's I think.
at least shadows new one is even easier to remember
I set it as the name of my VM.
shadow weird and not use vm for most tryhackme hacking

Hi do you know how to solve the bloodhound json read issue "file created from incompatible collector"
You have to make sure bloodhound's version is compatible with collector's version
I see thank you
no welcome, look carefully when running the collector, I remember it would notify you the compatible bloodhound version
I'm running post exploitation basics room
Will it be better to downgrade the bloodhound or upgrade the sharp hound?
on your attack machine just git clone the bloodhound repo, then tranfer sharphound to the target & run it

Hi there, I'm trying to access the room dedicated to using & practising the find command within Linux. I'm following the link from within Task 6 in the Learn Linux Fundamentals Part 1 room. When I click through, the response I receive is "Room Is Private" and "If this is an error on our behalf. Please contact us.". I pay the monthly subscription so I think I should be able to access the room. I could be wrong, I'm super new 🙂
No, it doesn't work like that.
The room is private, possibly it's older content and now deprecated. So it will not longer be used.

Here's the required information for getting VMs to work in AWS. Also, if you haven't, you may want to ask a mod for access to #creators-lounge when they are around.

Also, you need to have the vm you upload in BIOS mode and not EUFI

Question related to getting started with THM. I noticed that when looking into a subscription, payment is not in dollars. It says I am based out of the UK but that is certainly not the case.

Hi! I’m having problems connecting any room , I prefer to use my own machine I chose east but it didn’t work then I use west worked for a while after that when didn’t work I download the west vip and worked but just for a while . Also the attack box doesn’t shows the rooms correctly.
I’m is east zone
Hi guys, I am wondering what I am doing wrong. I have a Kali box with openVPN, and I am trying to connect to an attack box, with the IP provided on top of the room.
But I get an error : tryhackme@10.10.91.221: Permission denied (publickey).
Its no big deal as I can open the attack box in the browser, but I would prefer using mine.
I can ping the IP fine.
Kind of that happen to me
I can’t ping the ip in my machine
And the openVpN is conectes
*connected
I am able to ping it, I am not sure why I get the denied message, it was working fine a few days ago. But the included box is just fine.
I don’t know if it is the same problem , but I try three different rooms that I started before and don’t finish , but I have my notes , so I though that maybe the rooms are old or expired like the HTB do. But then I keep trying randomly to see what happens and I got one that works in attack box. But I don’t like to work in the attack box 😬
I'm not sure if you mean the room, but if you're using your own VM you don't need to use the attackbox at all.
Have you checked the openvpn room or used the openvpn script on the THM github to see if you're properly connected?
Yes, I have my own box and I am on the openVPN but I am not able to ssh into the attackbox.
Let me check that now, thank you.
The access page reports back that I am connected fine
Can you provide a screenshot?
Of the THM page and what you're trying to enter into the terminal
Do you have a link to this room? Can't seem to find it
Or is it a sub room
no
It is, you better get a sub at some point 😄
Nah I'm just kidding 😄
Task 7 is asking to start the machine
Where does it say you should ssh into the target machine ?
Too late
It does not in this one, but should I not be able to ssh into any of the rooms boxes?
I had a previous room where I needed to execute a bunch of commands from the terminal.
Looking at the instructions, there's no mention of SSHing
ok, yes, I am aware. Not in the current room.
No, only if the room is stating that you have to ssh in and provides creds, or depending on the room it would be required or is part of a challenge.
For this task it's providing you with a webpage you simply connect to and solve the task
Ok great, good to know.
How about this one:
https://tryhackme.com/room/authenticationbypass
Task 2, how can I get this done on my box when I dont have any of those files?
You mean the SecLists?
Can be just downloaded, should be even working with sudo apt install seclists I think
Or get it from github
/usr/share/wordlists/SecLists/Usernames/Names/names.txt
Yes, that's part of the seclists package
Ah ok, I was not aware, nor did I see instructions to get that but I might have missed it. Sorry about that.
Thank you everyone for your help, I learned a lot today.
I just saw the instructions towards the end to get it from gitHub, my bad guys.

Hello, I have problems with VPN since yesterday. The connection resets every 2-3 Minutes and I can't connect to any machine. I already changed the VPN Server (I am on EU-Regular-1 now, was EU-Regular-3 before), but the problem persists.

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the correct room to ask, but I'll try. Why is room introtopython private for me? My friend has that room available for him, but when i try i cannot access it.
probably because it got replaced with https://tryhackme.com/room/pythonbasics
so there's no way i can access it?
well if it was made private it tends to be for good reason
like it being old and there being better alternatives
that's pitty i just wanted to try the last task.. thanks
well there is ways to join private rooms but dunno if we are allowed to share that or how bad of an idea it is to share and how much breakages it can cause
You're not.
thanks scrubz
I got a friendly warning for accessing lots of private rooms.
ah shadow has only accessed a few private rooms.... one of the ones shadow access often shadow joined before it became private and also completed long before it became privatre
the find command room that is
That isn't private for me.
Because I joined before it got locked.
TO TERMINATE ALL RUNNING MACHINES
This script will terminate all running machines except your attackbox (or normal kali machine for subscribers), so you can still use it without having to start everything up again.
How to use:
Copy this script, go to your browser with tryhackme running, open developer tools (f12 or ctrl+shift+i) and paste the script, it'll do all the work
fetch("/api/vm/running")
.then((r) => r.json())
.then((vms) =>
vms.forEach((vm) => {
if (vm.roomId === "kali") {
return;
}
fetch("/api/vm/terminate", {
method: "POST",
body: JSON.stringify({ code: vm.roomId }),
headers: {
"csrf-token": csrfToken,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
});
})
);
V2 API
fetch("/api/v2/auth/csrf")
.then((r) => r.json())
.then((authData) => {
const csrfToken = authData.data.token;
return fetch("/api/v2/vms/running")
.then((r) => r.json())
.then((vms) =>
vms.data.forEach((vm) => {
if (vm.roomCode === "kali") {

"csrf-token": csrfToken,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
});
})
);
})
.catch((error) => console.error("Error:", error));
@bronze vale ^ ❤️
finally got it to work
Could somebody direct me in a good direction, I’m trying to start THM via an oricleVM running Kali but I can’t seem to connect to the server. Ran the oVPN through the terminal and it showed as initialization sequence completed, but still won’t connect. Thanks.
try and run this script
!vpnscript
fair point... by that logic it is not private for shadow either

i just cant remember how to upload a reverse shell as a .gif format :'))))))))))
oh yeah @crystal marlin I fixed up and optimized the leaving subscriber rooms that I talked about yesterday
Have you typed out the full URL as the inductions suggests in task 2? http:// ip /
I'm on my phone so I can't test myself, but maybe refresh your browser and the box you're trying to connect to.
Hi zius, this isn't really a tech support issue. My suggestion would be to go back through and see which rooms you have completed in order to find what you're looking for.
Is that machine still up?
If they restarted the box, it should be
Ye I guess they shut it down or restarted, since that IP seems down
Let me have the IP of the current target machine pls
Can you open a "new private window" in your firefox and try again, but make sure it's a "new private window" not just a "normal tab"
It can be done via the drop down when pressing the button top right in firefox
If you run ip a in your terminal, what's the output you get
Also, can you open other websites just fine ?
If your kali is a VM, do you have any personal VPN running on your host machine ?
I mean, are you connected ?
But ye, disconnect/close it
Try sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200 in your terminal then refresh the page again to see if that changes anything
Not sure if the script sets your mtu automatically
But just try setting the MTU to 1400 rather than 1200 and see
it tries to figure out a good default mtu nowadays... though it aborts searching for one if it drops below 1000 as then there is probably other issues
Oh ye ye I know about the testing part of it, just not sure if it then also sets your MTU automatically to that found value, or if you have to do it on your own

I've tried each US VPN endpoint but the Hackpark machine is just creeping slow. I'm going back through to produce screenshots to accompany my notes and I do not remember this machine struggling this bad.
Has anyone had this issue recently and been able to find a solution?
my vpn doesn't work when i try to ping a machine it says tll expired or request timed out
Have you run the VPN script to see if there are any issues?
!vpnscript
yes i just did and i still have the same problem
Room and task number?
Also, did you start the machine?
Green box, usually over to the right of the task
yes i started the machine
its room cyborg
i just tried to ping the machine's ip and all the packets are lost
also its not just the cyborg room i tried other rooms too and i have the same problem i tried to regenerate my vpn file and reconnect it but still doesnt work
And the site says your connected?
If you go to the openvpn room, does it say you're 100% good to go?
!vpn
Don't need your ovpn information, just pictures of what you're entering in the room and the room ip

Burp Suite issue I can't open provided link http://10.10.234.237/products/ on any browser firefox or Chromium. Mozilla working fine if FoxyProxy OFF but when you turn it on it wont load 10.10.23.237 same with Chromium it wont load it. Interecept working but I can't open it. Default settings , Proxy Listeners 127 0 0 1 8080 , certificate installed but still does not work. It was working once for me maybe 4 days ago but now same issue. Basically it won't open any site , google etc..
to clicking "Forward" in burp.
ty. I also just googled it and found "When interception is enabled, you will indeed need to forward each intercepted HTTP message in order to browse as normal"
finally 👍
Hi, I have problem with VPN. When I try connected as usually, nothing happens. So i change / regenerate VPN server / config, still nothing. Besides, I cant even start the machine in room, because Im allready started one. Any help?
Show a screenshot of the openvpn output when connecting to it pls
Looks like you are connected just fine, the access page is not reliable for checking if you are connected or not
What's the output you get when running curl 10.10.10.10/whoami ?
10.14.35.147
K, then you are connected
Regarding the machine already started, try to refresh the room page with ctrl + F5
If that doesn't help, you can copy paste the 2nd code in that post into your dev tools console: #site-support message
But make sure to use the 2nd one that says "To terminate all running machines"
@crystal marlin ctrl + F5, it solved both problems, thx, what does the shortcut do?
Easy googleable question 😉
Refresh cache, thank you for all 🙂

Hello,
I'm trying to do the content discovery lesson, but the attack box stops working. I can't even access the exercise machine through the VPN at all.
in the exercise you're supposed to go to https://static-labs.tryhackme.cloud/sites/thm-web-framework, but the connection won't come through. ping doesn't work either.
no, the machine is still up
yea, I did this on my local VM through the VPN and there it worked. I'm stuck on task 6
accessing the exercise machine (in my case http://10.10.210.200/) is really, really slow on the attack box and doesn't work over the VPN at all
but is there a reason it doesn't work in the attackbox or is that standard behavior?
but I won't even get a ping back to the thm framework website
the VPN script adjusted the MTU, going to try again from there
lol now I got a proxy error, but that's just burpsuite's proxy. disabling it let me access http://10.10.210.200/ now
what should I use instead?
thanks for the help. I hope this issue is resolved ``
Is there a way to transfer my thm account linkage to a new discord account? or is it attached to that account permanently
@opaque iris old account 😔
A mod is able to do that. Once a mod appears, either here or #general, and they'll be able to help.
ok ty !!!

I am in need of an English speaker for a long time engagement. Please DM me
Not sure this is really the correct channel. What do you mean by "long time engagement"
Where can I find an English speaker in this SERVER?
You're speaking to one, however, what do you mean by "long time engagement". We don't do hacking for hire here
Hello I am an ENGLISH speaker
https://tryhackme.com/room/posheclipse <--- The VM for this room which hosts Splunk to anaylze events for the room is impossible to work with. I've tried it a few times (past couple days) and navigating between different menus causes the Splunk webpage to stall out while trying to load. I'm also getting a lot of packet loss while trying to communicate between an attack box / room box and even across the VPN.
i lost my streak :| is that possible to resolve here, or i should mail ?
2nd time actually, cause i couldnt able to access my device yesterday
okiee thank you !!

Hey, I thought I remember seeing an option to reset all progress. Was that somewhere else I was thinking or was there some way to reset all progress instead of just deleting my account and making a new one?
I haven't done anything related to hacking/pentesting in a few years and I feel like a beginner again
There is no such option, you would have to manually reset each room

Hello is an admin there ?
I am having trouble downloading vpn access
nvm It works now (don't know why but It's okay)
Just a heads up, another discord scam going around from proexcrypto's
Also did a small oopsie and gave my real email instead of the 10 minute one so might be fucked
Shouldn’t be giving your email to anyone.
hey, so I connected to THM network using openvpn, but connecting to the machine using ssh asks for a password?
what machine are you doing?
Yeah, I fked up the email macro
help, I cannot connect to vpn ovpnagent: request error
How are you trying to connect?
Windows OS?
yeah
Probably a good idea not to use your host.
who?
You.
what host
Is Windows your primary OS?
yeah
So that's your host.
oh, so I cannot connect on windows?
You can, but it's not a good idea.
why is that?
Lack of tool support (somewhat solved by WSL) and a myriad of other reasons. You're better off running a VM on your windows host. It will keep everything segmented
soo, I cannot use kali for windows? from the windows store?
Iirc there were issues with that? I'm not 100% though
wsl2 being on the same network as your host
wsl2 being able to access all of your windows files
More along the lines of technical issues, but yes, those would definitely be concerns
room https://tryhackme.com/room/relevant VM is every once in a while crashing, so i have to terminate and start it again
oh, so the vm cant access my windows files?
Unless you setup a file share, no
You're going to have to look at the WSL documentation for specifics into how it interacts with your local files
I changed of VM and now I can't connect to OpenVPN?
I regenerated the file
and did everything I knew.
But it says there is a problem with cypher
Have you tried running the VPN troubleshooting script?
!vpnscript
Hi ! I got some troubles to use the AttackBox, i’m disconnected all 20 seconds and i don’t know why…
I’m learning the linux fundamentals 3 and my machine disconnect every 20 seconds, i switched off my vpn, but this is always here…
!vpnscript
might help
Attackbox, not a vm
oh
Yep 😅
Are you a subscriber?
Yes
