I'll start the box again and try again. I tried twice this morning.

Hello I cannot access THM

#

Can Someone help please

broken bear
#

Can you be more specific about the problem?

tulip widget
#

Yeah my phone removed the 2 factor ID to login and because of that I cannot login

#

And I cant download a new app

broken bear
#

That sounds like an issue that actual THM support may be able to help with.
This is a community discord and not an official support vector, please email support@tryhackme.com

tulip widget
#

ok and how long will that take

broken bear
#

As long as the queue is. I think the average time right now is 3-5 days, but I do not know for sure.

tulip widget
#

Oh Jesus Noooo that is ridiculus

#

If I did that to a customer I would be fired the same day

plush bay
#

well tryhackme is still a small company so they only have a single person working on customer support email

tulip widget
#

Yeah that would not be an excuse in my book hello you cannot do that in the real world

#

my boss does not take No for a Answer he will make a call and have you replaced the same day.

broken bear
#

Your boss can do that, because you report to them. THM is run differently.

dense bramble
#

Good thing he's not the boss at THM then

tulip widget
broken bear
#

And, complaining about it here isn't a valid path to getting support from the THM support team; some of them spend their free time on non-working hours here but staff isn't the same thing as support.

#

Again, if you are having problems with 2FA the support email address is the only way I know of to open the ticket to get help.

tulip widget
broken bear
#

Correct. I am a community volunteer, not site support.

tulip widget
#

Ok then why do you act the way you do

#

Jesus sorry for asking a Question

broken bear
#

I'm not the one acting like I'm doing someone else a favor by asking a question

#

You asked a question, and I gave you the information you asked for in a way that is as un-ambiguous and difficult to misinterpret as I possibly could. What more would you look for in a response?

Can you send a QR code for me to get back into THM

broken bear
#

If anyone sends you a QR code, please don't open it. There's some account stealing using that vector going on.

tulip widget
#

Ok well the email respsonse I got is it will take 1-3 days before I hear anything and sorry but that is very dissapointing so guess when I finally get my account back I will just cancel my subscription with THM I can't believe this cant be resolved I am paying for this.

Is anyone else having trouble connecting through US-West-VIP-1? I'm running openvpn with sudo. I'm all updated. I've regenerated my VPN config file. I've verified internet connectivity as well. Attached is the error I'm getting when trying to connect.

#

I've also tried switching to an EU VPN server with the same results.

Hi, does anyone know what might be wrong when I open the https://tryhackma.com/my-machine and get a 404? I am having a subscription and understand that I can have a personal machine then. But that is not working.

tribal mason
elfin yew
#

Oh, ok. and is there any other option, or is the overall feature deprecated?

weary spindle
#

The attackbox is the my-machine page.

elfin yew
#

you mean the split screen?

weary spindle
#

Yes, there is a button to make it pop out and be full screen.

elfin yew
#

ah, ok. But it is stateless, right?

naive dust
#

Hey all, anyone know if when in the AttackBox Terminal, how to quickly split the terminal horizontal or vertical? shortcut keys for MS Windows?

weary spindle
elfin yew
#

does data that I created stay on that machine? I see that I always restart the machine from day to day

weary spindle
#

No.

#

It never has done.

#

When you close the machine, it will go back to the state it was booted up in.

elfin yew
#

ok, I my perception was that it does with "my-machine"

#

and is there a ISO image for local installation that contains all test data such as wordlists etc that we have on that machine?

weary spindle
#

No, THM won't give that out.

elfin yew
#

so that I could run my machine locally in vm mode?

weary spindle
#

As it's theirs, and constantly updated.

elfin yew
#

ok. Thanks @weary spindle !

scenic torrentBOT
#

Gave +1 Rep to @weary spindle

weary spindle
#

You could get an ubuntu iso and create that.

#

If you need a wordlist or so from the attackbox, you can do so with a python server.

elfin yew
#

yeah, I already created my Kali machine. But found out that for some rooms I am missing data in /var/...

#

ah, ok. So giving access to the attachbox via http you mean? Do wget the files?

ok so openvpn kinda started buggin again .... i used the thm troubleshooter script to help out but even though it did virtually help me connect to the THM network i still cant access the machines

i tried to rengenerate the .ovpn file and try again but no help doing that

so basically i do get an "initialization completed" on the openvpn connection as well as a virtual address but when i ping the machine it doesnt respond at all

Hey I was wondering if someone could help me out. I am wanting to use a Kali VM on my PC with OpenVPN instead of the attackbox but I seem to be getting some weird behaviour when completing nmap scans. The output between the two are different. The attackbox provides more output details vs the kali machine, so if I use kali vm it's likely missing the answer I need. I am working on the Network Services room - enumerating FTP

crystal marlin

So only have it running directly inside your VM and not on your host machine

The attackbox has been disconnecting and reconnecting sporadically for the past couple days, for me. Does anyone know how to fix this? My internet connection is stable.

marsh patrol
#

Can someone please remind me how to connect with OpenVPN? I have the configuration file downloaded, start the machine in the room I am in, run sudo openvpn pathtoconfigurationfile. Then what?

#

It says Initialization Sequence Completed

marsh patrol
naive dust
#

You don't do nothing just minimize the screen or open up a new terminal to perform your Tasks

#

You let that run in the background

#

That let's you connect to THM servers

#

so you can complete tasks

Parrot

naive dust
#

So just download the files and it will be in your Downloads folder

naive dust
#

Click blue button and then head over to your Downloads folder

marsh patrol
naive dust
#

Think you need to enable 'Split-View' for that

#

to download Email1.eml

#

So once you start the machine 'Split-View' will open up

#

Also you will need to create an account

#

with Phishtool

marsh patrol
#

I have that. But I am logged into the account on my Parrot machine. How do I get the email files to the Parrot?

naive dust
#

You don't download the files to Parrot you upload them unto PhishTool, from 'Split-View'

plush bay
#

also known as you are not supposed to get the eml email file as it is kinda dangerous as it actually contains a semi malicious file

marsh patrol
#

So what?

plush bay
#

no... shadow means this:

#

@marsh patrol ⬆️

#

USING THUNDERBIRD

marsh patrol
#

I have Thunderbird on my Parrot machine. So how do I get the file there?

plush bay
#

the start machine button starts the target machine in split view

#

it has thunderbird installed on the target

naive dust
plush bay
#

sorry if this looks rude... just tired

naive dust
#

You should then see this

plush bay
#

this is a malicious malware thingy kinda... so it is restricted to the target machine and you should do everything on the target machine

#

to not infect your vm or your windows host

#

sure tryhackme has stripped the file very bare so that it is near harmless but still it comes with a bit of risk

naive dust
#

Here are the emails

#

That's what you should be looking for

#

not going to be on your Parrot machine

marsh patrol
plush bay
#

you are not going too

#

thunderbird can open .eml files without login

#

you just click cancel on the login part

#

and even if you tried to login to your email on the target machine it would fail as it does not have an outside internet connection

somber mural
#

hey, i'm new to tryhackme and i need to open 2 vm's for a school task. Anyone know how I should do this? this is the task: Start from 2 virtual linux machines.

On VM1 add a user with the username VM1Group<Group Number>
VM2 add the user with the username VM2Group<Group Number> and install the software package openssh-server:
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
Using the ssh command you can connect from VM1 to VM2 using the username/password combination of the user on VM2.

Follow the documentation provided here to generate a new keypair.

Try connecting again with the ssh command from VM1 to VM2 but this time use a private/public keypair. You can find several guides on the Internet on how to do this. The private key is on VM1, the public key is on VM2. If all went well, you can connect from VM1 to VM2 without using passwords

hmmm

#

are you running a vpn on your host machine????

naive dust
#

no, I killed all and tried again

#

just to make sure there were no connections

plush bay
#

i.e you are runnning the vpn connection for tryhackme in a kali vm.. shadow was asking if you are also running a vpn on your windows machine... as that would often cause conflict because sending a vpns traffic through a vpn tends to be problematic

@bronze vale would you happen to know why the attack box keeps disconnecting when i utilize it? my internet connection is stable but am unsure why it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting over and over.

bronze vale
obsidian steeple
#

also dont currently have the ability to hardwire, but will try when i get home.

bronze vale
#

That's not a problem πŸ™‚
It's only a suggestion, if the disconnection keeps on dropping, I would suggest that you do use an ethernet cable. We recently bumped the servers so the disconnection on our end has been reduced.

If you are on Work/ School/ Public WiFi or Mobile Data, I would also recommend waiting until you are home as they can sometimes interfere with the data you are transferring due to the nature of our website.

also, didn't work. its 0 bytes

in your terminal, inside the downloads folder type file <file.ovpn> it should give you some details of that file or tell you if it's really empty. Otherwise wait for staff/support

#

Btw, that is if you are using Linux

light finch
#

yep, its empty.

that's weird,

wait for staff/support

as it should.

if that does not work try switching vpn server

not sure about the 2 min wait part

plush bay
#

welp that is basically what we can do

light finch
#

yeah. I tried that.

#

I remember having a similar issue month's ago. but just regenerating it would work. However this time, it is more persistent. been almost 24 hrs like this.

naive dust
#

Try switching vpn server

plush bay
#

you tried other vpn servers???

#

or are you trying to get the vpn for a network room

light finch
#

its network room

naive dust
#

what if it could be your environemental conditions or firewall settings?

plush bay
#

aaaah then it is worse

#

for network rooms you can leave and rejoin the network room and then regen the config

#

there are no different servers to choose from sadly

naive dust
#

yeah, this is where i end my trail πŸ˜…

#

don't want to advice misinformation

light finch
#

Just one network room doesn't generate a good vpn config file

naive dust
#

by network rooms, do you happen to mean other online training platforms besides TryHackMe?

light finch
naive dust
#

Can you provide an example for this I am completely confused, reason being is because you can only download the .ovpn file once ? If I am not mistaken

#

I apologize if i may have misunderstood you

naive dust
#

You can try

#

Let me know if anyone sees a solution

#

!vpnscript

sharp bisonBOT

alright I will try that

#

It's by Muiri

#

yea it is

#

very cool

#

just finished running through it, it appears to work

#

i take that as a win

#

wonder why that happened. Maybe a kali update fubared tun0

#

something about AES encryption packages

#

ahhh

#

not being updated on it's newer version of kali packages

#

i think

#

interesting

#

I see you can also fix with sed -i command

#

which i also see in Muiri's bash script

#

that is super amazing. skills on deck

#

yea way out of my league for sure

#

See with this command

#

sed -i 's/cipher AES-256-CBC/data-ciphers AES-256-CBC/' *.ovpn

does someone maybe know why my terminal is a bit laggy? If i hold down my right/left key it has a little delay to it and when I release it it just goes. Im running kali on vmware. Its literally only the terminal everything else works fine.

Is it because of xfce?

you need to select Networks, and the drop-down for "Network VPN Server"

You would get a bunch of VPNs available if you join the network rooms

I need help!I launched a target machine on TRHACKME and obtained the IP 10.10.158.168. Then I opened a VPN and obtained the IP 10.13.21.153. I wanted to test the target machine using my Kali virtual machine, which is using NAT mode. I can ping 10.10.158.168 from Kali, but when I tried to ping 10.13.21.153 from within 10.10.158.168, there was no response. What could be the issue?

Hi,

Here are some tips to help you avoid losing your streak:

  • Try to answer questions no later than 11 pm or earlier than 3 am.

  • Activity on your profile is a breakdown of answered questions and other things like deploying and terminating machines. Please ensure you've answered questions daily, not just been active on the platform. A minimum of 3 questions answered is also good to ensure you keep your streak. The questions that do not require an actual answer ("completed") do not count towards your streak.

  • Do you know if the country flag in your profile is correct? If not, this can lead to issues with your time zone.

Does anyone know if there's a discord channel or a status page on the website where we can keep an eye to know when this problem has been resolved? So I won't need to keep checking the rooms or refresh the page to see when the problem has been resolved

Hail, noble scholars of this esteemed server! I come before thee humbly, beset by a doubt that doth vex my mind like a thorn in my side. Though I have sought answers in the texts of old and the wisdom of the ages, my quest for understanding remains unfulfilled. Thus, I implore thee to lend thy expertise and aid me in this endeavor. Mayhap, with thy guidance, I shall emerge from the shadows of ignorance, and behold the light of knowledge. Pray, let not my plea go unanswered, and let the pursuit of truth unite us in this quest.

that's odd, let me check the ip

zealous yoke
#

sure πŸ˜„ This is what I see

sage copper
#

actually, I get why I was seeing an ubuntu installation, it was because after clicking on Start Machine, nothing shows up, and because of that I clicked on Start Attackbox, which is linux

#

anyway, when I click on Start Machine, it just shows me that a machine is active

#

but nothing appears on my screen

#

the ip is 10.10.183.111

zealous yoke
#

Ah yup. That means the in-browser access hasn't been configured - some rooms are like this (I.e. challenges / community-made walkthroughs)

#

But this should have in-browser access, I'll send a message to my colleague to see if we can get the in-browser access added

#

It looks like the VM attached to the room was recently updated so it's probably just been missed off by mistake πŸ™‚

sage copper
#

oh, okay then

#

thanks for the help ^^

No worries, I've just sent a message internally. But a good thing to note is that you won't always get a connection/split-screen view when launching a machine in all rooms πŸ™‚

Hello,

I am building a room for THM and I am facing some issues with IP addressing.

The initial foothold will be through a CMS. The problem is that when setting up this CMS - it requires a static IP address (which, while building the lab, it must be a local ip address from my network)

This static IP address will be used from users to go to this CMS and do the rest... Knowing that THM uses different sets of IP addresses, and my local IP address is not the same, how do I handle it? I am guessing that the solution here is to setup dynamic IP so everytime the instance fires up, it gets the new THM IP, but the CMS doesn't have an option for it

#

I think that the website is running fine now, maybe they fixed the problem

cc @zealous yoke ARP scan on attack box?

ocean flint
#

In my Browser the Start Machine isnt running and i only get a white screen what can i do or shoud i set any settings in the browser. Can someone help ?

stone gorge
#

I just realized after trying on three different browsers, with the same result, that I have WebRoot running and so I'm trying it again without that

#

I made sure to remove AdBlockerPlus from my Chrome browser, but the issue was persisting. So I tried accessing it on Microsoft Edge, same thing happened. Checked in the Console and saw that one of the errors mentioned something blocking access. I looked in my plugins/add-ons for the browser itself and that's when I saw WebRoot, which is for my whole computer.

#

Fingers crossed that it works for me this time...

#

But I wold check the Console in Developer Tools on your browser as well as any add-ons or plugins you use that block JavaScript and things like that

ocean flint
#

I also disabled every blocker but it still dosnt work

stone gorge
#

Yeah, I just tried again, same issue. Another user messaged me having the same issue. This might be a room bug?

#

I've emailed support yesterday, just waiting the few days for a response.

ocean flint
#

hmmm too bad it's really disappointing to just want to start and then directly something like this can you write me if you know more?

stone gorge
#

For sure, it's been a bit frustrating but I know stuff happens like this because I work in software troubleshooting so I'm just trying to exhaust all avenues that I can think of lol

no idea what is breaking it for you people but sad that you get stuck in this Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

stone gorge
#

Yeah, it is a weird one for sure. I'd be curious to know if it's working for others? I'm hoping it's just something on my end and not on the site cause that's obviously not bueno for people starting out on those modules if so:/

#

Here are the errors I'm getting after adding TryHackMe as an exception to the tracking protection:

#

The 403 and 400 errors from the server

plush bay
#

this is for linux fundamentals 1 right??? going to check if it works for shadow

#

shadows assumption is it will work for shadow as it has worked in the past for them

stone gorge
#

Yes. I've tried everything I can think of at this point, including turning off firewalls and other things, and I just keep getting those same errors persisting

#

Thanks for checking on that!

plush bay
#

works for shadow strangely enough

stone gorge
#

Hmmm. I could try on a non-hardened version of Firefox and see if it works for me then. But it should work on Chrome as well, right?

#

Did you have to alter any configurations in the browser or your computer's firewall or antivirus at all?

plush bay
#

huh none hardenend firefox??? shadow uses the arkenfox user.js and it works

#

also known as about as hardened as feasibly possible

#

also have ublock origin running

stone gorge
#

oh, the firefox I have has all kinds of stuff basically that would likely cause issues (uBlock, etc etc)

#

Wait for real?

#

OK then I don't know πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

plush bay
#

.... though no firewall or anti virus as this is a linux machine

stone gorge
#

I see. I'm using a Windows computer

#

desktop

#

I wonder why the server is failing to load resource

plush bay
#

yeah it is weird

stone gorge
#

I'm just glad I'm not going crazy lol, since other people are seeing it

#

I guess it's not a room bug then

plush bay
#

yeah.... shadows setup should be prone to breakages of a lot of websites.... the exception is if it has to do with firewalls or anti virus as shadow don't use a firewall and anti virus is not really an option on linux based distros

#

like it is on windows that is

#

technically there is clamav

stone gorge
#

i guess I can look at windows firewall

#

and my antivirus

#

ill turn on all my other stuff i removed

stone gorge
#

OK so here's something else I found:

#

Not sure if that's applicable, but I have no idea how to set that lol

Hello can anyone help with this? I started the 'Breaching Active Directory' room and it looks like the start button is stuck/froze? I have connected to the VPN but I cannot get find the domain and I have tried to connect on the attack-box but I still cannot find the domain. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hello. I am here regarding a question about the openvpn connection with tryhackme. I did plenty of researching in the past 3 days and still found no solution so I hope to find some assistance here. The problem is, that when I connect to the network (yes, I do get the 2 green check marks) I still cant type in an ip in my browser to see the website. (I tried with 10.10.10.10 like in the docs incase a room does not have one. I am on WSL on windows 10. I found an answer regarding this in the pinned messages, but at the bottom it said: This does not work for windows [...]. Is there a good solution to it? I have tried doing both dual booting and VMs but I always had problems achieving that. Thank you beforehand,

I had a streak of 470 and its gone today. I'm on everyday doing activities. I posted in the general channel and was told to email support@tryhackme.com

zealous yoke
#

Ah sorry to hear! Is your country on your profile page correct? It is 24 hours from when you last answered a question (afaik)

compact basin
#

No, its not. I'm from the US but is says Italy. I never figured how to change it.

zealous yoke
#

Ah, that would be a problem as it also uses your timezone. Let me see if I can find the URL that updates it for you

compact basin
#

Thank you.

zealous yoke
compact basin
#

Thank you.

zealous yoke

You should get directed to the dashboard page. After that, take a look at your profile and your country should've updated πŸ™‚

compact basin
#

Yes, it worked. Thank you!

zealous yoke
#

Great! Yup so that'll help. It'll now use your timezone + 24 hours for your questions (so say you answer a question at 6PM in your timezone, it will now use that rather than say w/e the timezone difference for 6pm is in Italy)

#

But yeah, to get it restored, you'll need to send an email to the support email

#

Just repeat all of the above and they should be able to help out πŸ™‚

compact basin

Great thank you so much!

No worries!

Hey I'm having some issues with RPD in the new Outlook NTML Leak. Not sure if here or #room-help is best but, I can connect using RDP fine but after a moment it disconnects with error [INFO][com.freerdp.client.common] - Network Disconnect!

can't seem to send a screenshot for some reason. I noticed other people have had similar issues with other rooms but couldn't find a solution

#

I don't have any VPN running on the host machine, and I can connect to tryhackme using openVPN fine and ping the machine fine, but after RPD disconnects I can no longer ping the machine

Download and run this, it should fix the cipher error

Doesn't seem to see the installed Arch package for Openvpn. Looks like the script only works for deb based distros

Hm, you could also make the change manually in your config file in an editor by changing cipher to data-ciphers

All sorted, thanks fellas

Coming back to this issue re: Linux Fundamentals Part 1, while I am still waiting for a response from support, I did find something that I'm doing as a workaround for now.

If you'd still like to complete the room, the youtube video at the top of it will guide you through the exercises and give you the answers. I'm doing that.
Also, if you open up the AttackBox (it actually loads and works for me), you can use the terminal in the AttackBox to practice some of the commands. It's not going to be useful for getting the answers of course since its a different machine entirely from what I understand, but I used it to practice the commands just fine and that was helpful.

I just installed virtualbox on my PC, but I got an error starting the machine saying no hypervisor partition. I looked up the error and found that it was a BIOS issue, and the BIOS menu wouldn’t let me move my mouse or use my keyboard to change a setting. It also froze when I pressed ctrl + alt + del to exit the menu. I’m on windows 10 with an ASUS mobo. Is it safe to exit a frozen BIOS menu, and can I enable virtualization without going into BIOS?

#

Also is this the right channel to ask this?

broken bear
amber hatch
#

Thanks

#

i bit the bullet and rebooted the frozen BIOS menu. i didn't brick my PC and i'll figure out some way to enable virtualization. worst case scenario i'll stick with the attackbox.

#

I am currently doing linux fundamentals part 1 and I am on task 5, I start the virtual machine and it never comes up so I go toward the top after 30 mins of waiting and start the attackbox and that opens up and I see that the other machine I opened first is starting up but when it finally starts I can not enter anything its completely frozen. I've tried to use it with chrome and no luck I've also restarted my computer and it is still giving me the same issue. Is there anything I can do to resolve this so that I can finish the section?

I've been having an issue with the Breaching Active Directory room. The VPN access to the network seems to be broken.

#

I've tried AttackBox, which is not connected, can't ping the domain controller IP, Kali: same deal.

#

and just now I tried connecting from my own computer using openvpn and I get this error: OPTIONS ERROR: failed to negotiate cipher with server. Add the server's cipher ('AES-256-CBC') to --data-ciphers (currently 'AES-256-GCM:AES-128-GCM:CHACHA20-POLY1305') if you want to connect to this server.

#

If I try to use "sudo openvpn --data-ciphers AES-256-CBC --config breachingad.ovpn" then I get this error:

#

they're not, I think somethings wrong

Try resetting the room.

openvpn to another service works just fine

makes sense :> @weary spindle

#

Still the same while openvpn runs in another tab

#

this happened on the openvpn tab

#

It killed it again

I guess they think my first connection is a duplicate connection

I restartet the VM, there is no other openvpn running

Oh, that tun0 is from another service I already killed

#

Would you mind giving me a hint on how to disconnect it completely?

sudo killall openvpn

this worked, then I started the thm openvpn and it connected be again to another tun0

weary spindle
#

tun0 is what you want,

#

tun0 is the interface created by OpenVPN.

modern lark
#

i recognize the tun0 ip and used it doing machines

#

is it normal I get it re-assigned all over again with thm?

weary spindle
#

re-assigned?

modern lark
#

on this part the tun0 comes back

#

with the same ip

weary spindle
#

Yes, that's your ip.

modern lark
weary spindle
#

That's your IP which will be used to catch your reverse shells etc.

modern lark
#

the script is still killing the thm openvpn

#

yes, but is is always the same ip
