That may be the problem , Russia blocks VPN connections
oh, is there a way around this?
Your only option may be to use THM's AttackBox
ok, thank you
I use THM's AttackBox, I guess no difference in using it on VPN?
No except that you can use your own machine which you can customize accoring to your needs
So may be for advanced users? Any article about that?
Anybody can use it . You can learn more about on how to connect via VPN on the link below

Thyank you.
Hey team, I need some help with a billing issue. I got a monthly subscription on 12th May using my friend’s card. It was supposed to be active until 12th June, and I canceled it before 10th June.
But the card was charged on 28th May, and now my TryHackMe account shows no active subscription — it just says “Subscribe.”
Could someone please check why I was charged and why I don’t have access?
For a subscription related problems reach out directly to support on the email address below
Okay thanks
What to do if the tryhackme attack box is stuck
first try reloading the page, if that doesnt work, restarting the attackbox
could you explain your problems?
Will VPN cause a delay in attackbox response?
you shouldn't use the vpn in the attackbox
use the attackbox without the vpn, but the attackbox can be slow
Hey, #room-help should be enough to get you some help. 🙂
Please don't paste it everywhere.
ok
Goodmorning everyone. I had to make a new account, having trouble accessing my old one due to me forgetting my login information. How can I recover my profile name and password?
By resetting your password using the email used to create your account.
@austere horizon I'll give it a go, thanks

Hi!
I posted about an issue in room-help a week ago but didn’t receive any response.
I'm reposting it here in case that was the wrong channel.
I'm working on the Dependency Management room and I'm stuck on task 7, which includes the following instruction:
"""
The build environment will rebuild an API application every 5 minutes. Once you have given the machine a couple of minutes to start, you can verify that the API is working by running the following:
curl http://10.10.255.237:8181/api/list
You should see that the API responds with a dataset. If you don't get a response, wait another 5 minutes and then try again.`
"""However, I keep getting the following error:
Failed to connect to 10.10.255.237 port 8181: Connection refused,
even though the target machine has been online for more than 15 minutes.
@austere horizon it says if my account exists I'll receive an email. I haven't received an email yet. How long is should it take?
Seconds. If you did not receive anything then you probably registered the account on a different mail.
@austere horizon i checked my new account and realized it's under my old email....damn lol. I thought I used my new email. How do I change that?
Email change is only possible if you can access the THM account and change it from within.
To access the THM account, you can just reset the password if you still have access to the old email.
@austere horizon i'm going to give it a rest, I'll try again later. Thank you for the help

Guys?
@austere horizon i managed to get my laptop back together, and working properly. Went on THM website, figured out how to get my old account. Success!🙌
@austere horizon this morning I followed your instructions to access my old account using my cellphone, I couldn't gain access. After getting my laptop together and functioning, I followed the same instructions you gave me earlier, within two minutes I got access. I'm curious to know what or how that was possible?
Im interested in creating rooms (or at least trying), are there more examples than the ones on the website? Or anyone has tips on how to get started?
Check out this article 🙂
https://help.tryhackme.com/en/articles/6633511-creating-your-first-room
thanks! I will try it out!

Quick question, can support check if my account is registered as a student? I did it a while ago and wanted confirmation
Also in Lieu of the industrial intrusion CTF, we are a student team, does that mean every member needs to register a student account or is it fine if only the team captain does
Every member does.
I get no responses on the OWASP API Security Top 10 - 1 room. I copy and pasted the given request and get no response multiple times
@ember osprey There are some vpn related issue for many of us. It maybe due to version upgrade, or kernel upgrade, or something else, There is tls handshake or tunneling may be. On my vm I changed to bridge network mode from NAT [previously worked fine with NAT], then the vpn worked but exactly 1 hour later TLS get soft reset.

Though it connect back, i can not access the thm machine. Please inform the technical team regarding this issue. This may not be VPN ban. Here at my location it is not banned.
So please Inform the technical team.
May i ask where you are from and which server you are using ?
Why can't I submit a ticket request on the website?
I wanted to ask for help on my streak
Try to send an email on the address below
Just reach out to staff and explain your situation , they will probably restore your streak for you 🙂
I am from Bangladesh, and EU-Regular-3

Did you try on a different device to rule out issues with your current OS, kali / linux?
i dont have different device, but i tried in on host OS, and the VPN worked that time
but i did not check the "1 hour issue" on the host OS.
Please don't spam the same message
I'd try it out on your host OS for more than a hour to test possibility of a mis-configuration issue on your Kali OS, if issues persist i'd start with reset and fresh deployment of Kali, if not then email support@tryhackme.com
That's for referencing my previous conversation regarding this issue.
I know, but if you post the same message multiple times the bot may auto mute you.
like now i started the vpn and the sequence completed
and pings a box on THM. i got the ping back, i can connect the vm now but, on the access page it says i am not connected
Can you access http://10.10.10.10/ from your machine ?
yes.
i am connected but the access page is saying i am not connected.
let's wait for 1 hour to test the "TLS Soft Reset".
Access page on THM is broken , if you can access http://10.10.10.10/ everything is good 🙂
sounds good, let me know about the 1 hour issue, using host OS now?
Yes
I am unable to connect to the target network from Attack Box. I am in AD Basic Enumeration room
Terminate AttackBox > Leave the room > Rejoin after few minutes > Start the network > Start AttackBox
Let me try...
Same issue. i can't see the route to target network
did you completely leave the room using:
options > leave room?
I logged out from try hack me. And then logged back in after like 10 minutes
Leave the room , don't relog
Oh ok
make sure to completely leave the room using:
options > leave room
This time i left the room as you said but same issue. AttakBox doesn't have route to the target network
Issue resolved. please ignore
how to enable Ai assistant?
on first room, i have Ai enable. but now i dont see the button
not all rooms have teh AI I believe, but not sure
ohhh make sense. Thanks
yeah, I think it is in beta mode, so
Hey Team, weeding out an issue with a room I am building. In the netplan of my box (on premise) I provision a bridge interface (br0). Somehow after the import that interface is no more - any hints? I see that on import the network config is rewritten a little, is there anything I can do to retain it?
What are you doing?
Without revealing too much - simulated local network (BGP)
I could repurpose the docker0 interface for what I am doing.. as that bridge is still alive and well. But that is less elegant.
So your job?
Nope - trying to contribute to the community, and building a room/CTF for THM
Ah wait - you're asking for my profession?
No, I'm asking what you're doing.
As I stated - building a room on THM
yes - superb. netfilter is taking care of that. However, without revealing too much (you can dm me) - I need to rely on a bridge (locally) for my eBGP scenario.
docker0 is still there... that's also instantiated with brctl 😉
the idea is novel... works in lab, and has been tested. Now getting the workload to run in THM is the next step.
Unique scenario - actual network attack on a protocol level (eBGP)
THM is using AWS to host the VM's, so it's down to AWS.
no custom conversion script for the workload from OVF to AWS? Anything that is checked that could hinder this?
In the end... I could go back and misuse docker0 for this purpose, and we are good...
found a workaround... need to rebuild the image and all netfilter rules. Bit of a pain, but can get this to work.
apologies for bothering.
Can I ask a question about the submission process... would you require a walkthrough to be provided with the room?
Yes.
Cheers! - I get cracking on that one.
is it possible to connect to a rooms machine with out having to do the splitscreen.
Yeah you can use your own VM via VPN instead of AttackBox
How do i check if my account is a verified student's account?
For the Industrial Intrusion CTF, are the challenges the same for student category vs. open category? (just separate scoreboards?)
Depends on the room.
Yes.
Hello everybody, do you know why the room "lateral movement and pivoting" doesn't start?
Hello, having trouble with https://tryhackme.com/room/typosquatters. Ive terminated and respawned the Kibana instance 3 times. Each time I get "Kibana server is not ready yet" even after waiting 10 minutes. Tried both from VPN and attackbox
Where do you go for networking related problems with a attack box and a room?
Hello I have a problem My account shows that I'm from United Kingdome and I'm from Oman And in the site I can't change it can any one help me ?
Thank you it worked
Try to leave the room and rejoin
What is the problem ?
It will start eventually , press f5 from time to time to refresh that page until the machine is fully up
Okay. I’ll try that. I can’t connect. I have restarted the attack box like four or five times and it never grabs on that network
yea still didnt work
f5 doesn't work
it said I should have access to 10.211.12.0 but I only have access to 10.211.11.0
tryconnectme does nothing
lol
It seems like some of the rooms for the PT1 are just straight broken
Unless maybe you use a VPN and it's fine? Sometimes they work other times they do not. I am using Attackbox
this problem guys
what room is that?
AD: Authenticated Enumeration for mine
did you have your attackbox started before starting the network in that room?
i figured it out @pale stump . want me to show you?
I have tried both before and after thinking that might be the issue
you have to regenerate the openvpn config from your access page and then run openvpn --config /root/Desktop/NetworkConfigs/Jr-Pentester-AD-v01-BH.ovpn --daemon --log /root/Desktop/NetworkConfigs/logs/Jr-Pentester-AD-v01-BH.log
if you hop on a call with me i can show you how to do it really quick @pale stump
I did that using tryconnectme
And it did nothing
I think at this point I am going to go the vpn route and assume thm attackboxes are trash
It’s done this on two of these related to PT1. The pivoting and this one.
But I will try again. That’s for the guidance. I’ll see if it fixes it this time around
if you hop on a call with me i can show you exactly what i did.
I was just under the impression that the attackboxes unless otherwise stated were ready to go. I loaded the box ping 20.211.12.xx which doesn’t ping because when you check the route I have 20.211.11.xx not .12.xx
So I ran try connect me copied the information from the room over. It supposed to generate a log but I can never ping the machine
And the instructions say nothing about this.
do you want me to show you what i did to get this to work?
I’ve run into the same issue with the pivot room. Sometimes I have the right network and other times I don’t.
Are you using an attack box or vpn?
i was trying to simulate the exact same problem you were having. i already have the room done. i started up the attack box, had connectivity issues, and then fixed them.
I’ll try the command when I get back to my desk that you gave and see if that fixes it
you have to do more than just type in the command
you have to go to your acces page, go to the network tab, select the openvpn configuration for the room, hit regenerate, open up the terminal on a new attackbox, use the tryconnectme command, let it do its thing, then run openvpn --config /root/Desktop/NetworkConfigs/Jr-Pentester-AD-v01-BH.ovpn --daemon --log /root/Desktop/NetworkConfigs/logs/Jr-Pentester-AD-v01-BH.log
Okay. I’ll try give me a little time to get back.
kk
i found a solution your issue. you have to modify your exploit script. right now it's printing the first element in the output list at the 0th index. you need to change it to 1. the machine is actually running the commands you send it - it's just not parsing the response properly and printing what you want to the terminal. having said that, you could literally just send it a command for a reverse shell, and the output for the exploit wouldn't matter anymore since you'd be using a different shell.
Omg. Either I am an idiot or tryhackme needs to better explain things. You were on the right track, went into the networking section and selected the room for some reason it had three options. Regenerated it and killed the attack box reloaded and shocker it works. I am guess it’s because I have been working a few rooms. Thank you @vagrant bear
Gave +1 Rep to @vagrant bear (current: #1008 - 5)
no problem, brother. glad i could help :D
No thank you. I ignored the networking section thinking it would have nothing to do with me because I wasn’t using a vpn. Obviously it affects the attack boxes. Thanks again. Lesson learned
Hey, I hope you are all doing well. I am using free version of tryhackme. I have connected with the tryhackme server through openvpn and also 10.10.10.10 is accessible and the ip is assigned. If you go to this link https://tryhackme.com/room/owasptop102021 and look at the task 4, how am i supposed to access the given link cause it always says "This site can't be reached", Can someone guide me through this issue, pls?
Can you please verify and provide some shots 🙂 ?
sure, pls wait
I have uploaded the photos to this link. Let me know if I can provide more info. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IJxbH3rW3ami7NUf_K-FlqvRkdkugZqF?usp=sharing
Please verify and upload screenshots directly here 🙂
You need to start the machine in the task first with the green Start machine button and enter the proper IP in the address bar instead of the machine_ip placeholder
Oh, Thank you very much, It is finally working, I had to write the address manually instead of just clicking it, Thanks.
Gave +1 Rep to @ember osprey (current: #1 - 5326)
When you start, it will provide you with the IP, which you must access with. Otherwise, if you have other connection problems or the problem persists, you must modify /etc/hosts. But I really don't know if that's necessary. I don't really know what you're solving right now.
It's working fine now, thanks
I'm having issues with the VPN configuration file. I run the proper command to use the .ovpn and see the
"If you can see this page, you're connected to TryHackMe
flag{connection_verified" message when going to 10.10.10.10 but it says I'm not connected on the Access Page on the main site.
I've tried multiple regenerations as well. I'm in the East coast of the US and tried West with the same result.
access page on THM's website is broken , if you access 10.10.10.10 everything is good with your connection 🙂
oh ok. Yeah I belive the room for Mr. Robot CTF must have an issue then. I can't upload a plugin or edit themes on it.
probably not an issue
I got credentials for the user to log into the WordPress admin site an it's just timing out or dropping the connection for both. Are you saying I'm going about this wrong because the write ups use the same PHP code as I did.
mm, I didn't work for me either in the writeups, but there is another way (same process, possibly different files, etc.)
I'll go back to it tomorrow then and see what I can do.
you may have turned it off from the payment app like google pay they have that options
if you have not done it them i donn't know
No actions were done on my side at all. It’s not too serious since it’s not like I lost money or anything, just odd
I also noticed it skipped a month, march soecifically. Was there anything that happened back then ?
support@tryhackme.com All payment and account queries are done via e-mail.
Aye, I’ll be shooting em an email then
Terminate the static site lab deployed in tasks 3 and 5.
how do i terminate the site lab? I dont see the red button
which room ?
Just press _ in the split view tray
underscore?
Yeah there's an _ in the split-view tray
ohhh okay. i thought there's a terminate button somewhere. You know the Red one. Okay thanks
There's for machine but this is just a static site , they usually just have _ 🙂
yeah, because the instruction say terminate the machine. So im kinda confused

Hi guys, I was wondering if the premium subscription of THM could teach me essential skills even if I'm a complete beginner? And if it would teach me the essential things to make the rooms ?
The subscription will allow you to access all the rooms and modules (besides Cloud) which do have the essentials and take them to further advance levels as well(can't say much about that cause I'm still in the second path)
I just got the subscription myself recently and it's been really useful imo
Any recommendations for troubleshooting "https://tryhackme.com/room/typosquatters" ? Im unable to get ELK to provision properly neither on the vpn or the attackbox. The error "Kibana server is not ready yet" reamins through the entire 2 hours of the VM
And if you follow the path from the beginning PreSecurity you will learn everything from the perspective of a beginner so you don't have to worry about that and as you go long you'll learn technical skills via the tasks in each room and you can also do the challenges will will improve them @acoustic granite
Ok thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @indigo cave (current: #1458 - 3)
And do you know if all the subjects of the rooms are in the courses ? Such as SQL injections etc... ? Sorry to bother you I only did the free courses and it was more hardware than software
Nearly all the subjects are there from, Active Directory to SQL Injection, I can show you all the rooms available if you'd like it see, I don't think that should violate any policy
If it doesn't violate any policy I would really like to see them
Hi I still need help. I emailed support and all they did was send me a password reset link.
I don't need to reset my password. I log in with my google account and for the past 2 weeks every time I try to login, it doesn't authenticate and just redirects to the login page.
I don't login with password, I'm stressed because I have the most progress locked behind my google account login and I am paying for premium. I'll keep getting billed and unable to use it if I can't log in.
sure sure, give me 15 mins and I can show you
You'll need to explain this to support.
All accounts and payment issues are dealt with via e-mail.
hi Scrubz Can you please go check room-help? I need help
There is no need to do this, 😄
People will help out when and if they see it.
Everybody is volunteers in here.

@weary spindle can I do this? show him around via screenshare, i dont think it should be a problem right?
Possibly violate ToS as they're not premium.

Press F5 to refresh that page from time to time
seems like I'm having the same problem will continue for a while to see
It should take approx 15-20min , no more
yeah, been 10 mins, gonna wait until 20 mins
🙂 👍
yeah, seemed like there was a bug, gonna make sure and check
I can tell you that its not my cache (tried different browsers), not the vpn (tried from THM attack box and same error), error persists even if the current machine is terminated and a new vm is spawned
Well it may be that there's a problem with a room , if the problem persists we can report it to staff 🙂
will let you know if it doesn't work for me either 🙂
🙂 👍
yea I see nothing but 503s
doesn't seem to work for me either:
What is your target IP?
oops, sorry, just terminated, restarting one more time
Machine works for me within the first 5 mins.
weird, why doesn't it work for us
I think smth was fixed, it now works
That's why I needed IP's
All VM's are booted from a default state
So my launcing of a machine, won't have any effect on you, unless it's a network room.
oh, I wasn't talking about your launch, maybe smth was changed by staff, or maybe when our machines started, it didn't work, idk how this happened
I just used my original browser, just terminated and started the machine again, now suddenly works
It's the same VM. 🙂
alr, so maybe smth wrong with the first vm I started
because I did exactly the same thing (same browser, vm), but now worked
wait, I'm gonna try something to test it out
You need to refresh the page from time to time
yeah, I refreshed the page multiple times
even right before the screenshot
F5, the refresh button, CTRL+F5
I tested it out, I think the reason it didn't work was because I was working on the gobuster room (started the machines at the same time) or because I wasn't looking at the room (I was on the gobuster room tab)
when restarting the machine, it now doesn't work again
alr, so it is working 👍
hi support channel, i got an error message that there were too many machines running. i've completed many rooms - is there any way to see my currently running machines easily?

hi i've connected to thm through the vpn and it works fine. when i access curl 10.10.10.10/whoami i see my 10.x.x.x IP. trying to do the lookup room, i can access the machine at the target IP address but when i try to access it by name e.g. lookup.thm name resolution fails.
what resolver do i add on my machine for the private .thm domains?
Did you add that domain to your /etc/hosts ?
im still not getting the option to terminate
the machine
im using firefox on kali linux btw
Go here and check where you have open machines
https://tryhackme.com/api/vm/running
i did not add anything to my hosts. do i have to add each machine IP manually after starting it? was hoping there was some THM DNS i could add that would solve all .thm entries
i can see them but how do i terminate
how do i terminate from there
If you want to use custom domains - yes
Go to that room and press terminate button
thats exactly what isnt showing up
im not using windows atm
ik how the termination works
but its now showing up
not*
Refresh a page and try again in few minutes
alright will let you know if it works or not
it worked ty

i try every one of the option
just blank
bro what its working
dunno what happend
just did it now
yeah, so thats why even i type anything. Its just empty
so its just empty from the start
Thanks guys
no, the answer is _
it's not empty
i did, but someshow it doesnt work. even when i try to type b or 3. Those letter didnt show up
because the character is done by thm, u can just submit
it's _ underscore
Probably because the answer is _
yeah because those you tried doesn't make sense
Wait, SO the course just gave you the answer from the start?
BROOOOOO its confused me, like whaaatttt.
for answers or parts of answers that are _, if fills it out for u
ohhh okay, noted.
Where do we share our SDLC factory results?
is that a cert?
idk what that is
Nah it's a room where it has a game and apparently if we believe we did well, we can share it on Discord

anyone know why i wouldnt be able to join the breaching active directory room? im pressing the button but it just doesnt work lol, other rooms do. its been like this for like a week now
Do you have a streak > 7?
yes its at 2
isn't it streak >= 7?
that isn't bigger than (or equal to) 7
It's the same thing.
Hey Everyone. Please help me out. I am not a subscribed user of tryhackme but still for the ones tryhackme provides 1 hr free use of their attack the box machine. But idk why after 15 mins of use only it always says like "Non-subscribed user can only deploy the free AttackBox for 1 hour a day. Subscribe for unlimited access."
what? how is:
streak > 7
equal to
streak >= 7
doesnt that mean less than or = too?
Look,.I'm on my mobile and it's easier to just type >
If you wish to argue semantics while the user is requesting help.
Don't.
I'm sry
lmaooo
It needs to be 7 or more.
okok thank you
....
I'm scared when scrubz is angry
feels like I'm in DEEEP trouble
guessing its a networking room then? and sorry for laughing lol funny from my pov
Nobody is angry.
Yeah, breaching is a network room.
alright thank ya, have a good night/day you two
when you use periods, captilization, and typing sentences with spaces between, seems like I'm in trouble
I always use grammar.
yeah, but the way you say it, to me, just sounds like I'm in trouble
idk, maybe because I'm a kid
You're not in trouble, technically you're correct, however the more it's argued about the less help the user is getting.
ohhh, got it
Hi, can anyone help me with technical issues on SAL1?
Need help asap. I started 3d part of exam but it stuck at infrastructure boot, already wasted over 40 minutes of exam time.

Well you can google it then , you've probably already seen that code 🙂
It's the most common one that people are familiar with
and when im trying to type the answer, it say Unauthorized
That means that you aren't logged in
ohhh, you are right. im confused, does tryhackme have somekinda timeout. even tho you are AFK on their website?
It don't think it does
weird. But its working now. Thank you

If you can access 10.10.10.10 your connection is good
Try to ask in #1385308722225483926 channel 🙂
But for a example I can't connect to lookup.thm
Did you add that domain to your /etc/hosts file ?
I’m having an issue with task 7 of the “ intro to cross site scripting” when asked to watch the example and I enter my name and press enter, I get payload fail error. I’ve trying restarting vms, switching networks, regenerating the vpn configuration, and re downloading, nothing has fixed the issue.
my THM automatically goes to a 500 error

Hi anyone here
Something up w the site, 50% of links says 500 E
and the ones that load takes 20-30sec
mine's back on
500 Error and none of my buttons work
ah ... after a refresh of the site i got 500 as well
we did not pay enough i guess
with the raise too :p
just do any other platform while it's bugged ig
im only very new to THM. are these connection issues often? unable to complete rooms because of connection issues :/
Been here for 75 days now
I've had site issues twice now
so pretty rare
The thing is : THM says only subscribers can use machines etc - well. I am a subscriber. So no platform/learn path working for me rn
+1
been here a week and i love it. but just starting to get a little annoying when the machines fail or something in side the machines fail etc
usually happens when i actually want to go on a long session!
yay it's up
1337
a i lost my room progress
COBOL.
:3
Is it still alive?!!!!
spam complete button speedrun any%
Used in banks?
Did saw it one time in my pentesting. Only 1 time.
anyway love the site. but hope they can improve these kinds of things 👍
meanie :C
aww mann 500 again
the site is slow
so annoying
If you are using a personal attack machine, I had to uninstall metasploit and reinstall metasploit to fix any issues with it not working
Thank you all for reporting, we're looking into the problem. 🙏
No the attack box… :/
hey is the site ery slow to you all?
Not to talk abt the machines i cant even ping them or scan this started happening like 2 days ago and i used it everyday and never had any problems
Please help 😦
Staff are aware.
Scrubz said “Staff are aware.”
guys im doing the pt1 exam suddenly i cant access the report and attackbox section like I cant click them at all
Try to ask in #pt1 channel
Possibly AV interference.
Hello, are they updating something on the website? i can't open any of the modules.. I'm getting the blank site..
but they are starting on 27th for how much i know not today
ok so, im a premium user and i cant use the site because some free users are overloading the server?
where is the logic in that
here it is, i will see if the machines are working ... now i managed to open the website
Is it fixed lads?
i can start the machine now lets go
Welp
i thought it was just me having issues with the site
Having same issue, blank page
just try to refresh it few times, sometimes it opens the page...
So what happens if you enroll in a path while doing one of the exercises? I presume each link has its own thing to enroll in.
I don't want overwhelmed from the very beginning. Knowing myself, I won't continue if I see a bunch of things to do. Are these available to enroll at a later time? Such as through searching the directory of pathways later on? If so, where is this located at? I've been just clicking the continue learning button to continue every time I've logged in.
is it just me - or is the site a little slow today?
yes you can enroll into any room at later times
if you wanna look through all paths again you can click on learn and check some other paths
if you want a free roadmap there is a free roadmap as well
yeah bro you can do any room any time you want
for me the site is doing fine
word yeah idk maybe it's just me
btw i wanna apply for the student discount and im worried that the school wont be recognized because i am not really from a bigger country
personally when i started i just picked some random learning path and just finished the whole thing from start to finish
Definitely not you. I can't even enter the site without a blank white page with nothing on it
oh okay good to know
just go into your account settings and list yourself as a student and put your institution down
That's the same here. I had to refresh after 10 seconds. Then pages load.
yeah i've done that but what if the system doesnt recognize the school 😭
idk man i just do online school and messaged tech support about it and they said i have a student account. idk, honestly - it's up to them.
Then bro better know someone in high places to get the discount
Jk
yeah i've had to keep refreshing all day that's why i was asking
so you just used your school email?
500 error received when refreshing the page
no i didn't even do that. i just listed myself as a student in my account settings and put the name of my school down. i wasn't sure if i was being recognized as a student, so i emailed tech support and they said that i have a student profile. i'm not even using my school email to login.
oh right thank you!
np :D
Hi support I joined a team called IndustrialRevolution for the CTF under my account management, but I'm not under the team in the CTF scoreboard.
I am currently working on a path that doesn't exist anymore. Does that matter?
sometimes whenever i try to complete a task, it gets stuck and i have to wait half a minute or so and other times it generate an error and doesn't get completed
How many of these paths are blocked off on average?
I think this is why I didn't continue back to the site for at least 20 days. I was just following the pathway and would get these each time
Not just you , site had some problems today
Every path has some premium content . Alternatively , you can go to the link below and select a free roadmap 🙂

Wdym ?
It took 30 seconds to load the page and another 30 seconds to have the text where it says loading to finally say Correct Answer

For me it is not sure about everyone else
Is it still slow or is it up fast again
You can ask staff to restore your streak

@ember osprey Hey bud i needed some help with my VPN after using the openvpn and following i am not getting any Internal Virtual IP Address
For which my nmap isn't working accurately is there any solution?
I needed to fix that for the CTF challenges tmw. please help :(.
Which room ? Provide some shots
looks like someone from my team was banned by mistake, or error. is there any way we can send an email to look into in?
Getting the same issues like Desync 
Nope
no modification's were done did it as similar as instructed
Run this command and refresh
sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200
ok
@weary spindle nothing
More that that my main issue is my nmap's not showing all the ports. but the thm VM is, so i think it's a VPN issue
@hot hatch try this sudo openvpn --config Path_to_File/user.ovpn --daemon
ok
quick question about the CTF, will the attacker machine (the VM we, as users will use to participate in the CTF) be open all the CTF long? I'm at this moment still a free user...
How will that fix it?
No, one hour a day still
Refresh 10.1.0.10.10
alright, but i can just use my own VM then, right?
Yes.
I am assuming you are not connected to OpenVPN @hot hatch ?
in my case, it works because the vpn doesn't like when restart the machine and doesn't turn vpn automatically
Tha will connect without the output, which would be terrible for troubleshooting such as this.
And the fact they can access 10.10.10.10 shows they can 😅
so I just leave it at the deamon to handle that
2025-06-26 23:55:25 WARNING: Compression for receiving enabled. Compression has been used in the past to break encryption. Sent packets are not compressed unless "allow-compression yes" is also set. i should be having this output correct
I am, but not fully kind of a situaction
I see, but the fact that he didn't get an IP, is that good enough? or is needs to be looked into? idk
what helped me is to follow their faq guides to resolve
Tried that no results :' ).
mind if you share a screenshot?
tbh i won't even have bother I can access and sites and so but but during recon using nmap it's not showing all ports and well you know how that goes
That needs looking in to.
Yea i restarted the machine to check let me give you for the same ip give me a min
Are you on VM?
yea
ip a | grep "run"
no output
swap run for tun
Stupid autocorrect
But you're connected now.
Should be able to nmap
ik but the thing is it's not even starting / in thm vm i started both at the same time
Attackbox will always be faster
In attackbox it takes like 5sec in my OpenVPN's VM i am still waiting for results it has been 3min-5min
oh, ok thn. Well thank you @weary spindle & @soft elk for your time.

Any way of verifying that your account is under a student account?
it says I have too many VMs active, how can I terminate them all if I dont know which ones are active
I am no longer receiving e-mails warning that I might lose my streak - can I get that turned back on?
I am having some issues with the VPN connection staying stable, 10.10.10.10 has some pretty sporadic round trip times and it will randomly disconnect. My rtt for a ping to 10.10.10.10 will jump from 167ish ms to 18005ms. Tried a couple different concentrators but it still seems fairly sporadic. Weird thing is, the connection status indicator shows that I am disconnected but I'm definitely connected.
If you can access 10.10.10.10 you're good . That connected feature on the website is broken , ignore it 🙂
You can see a list of the link below 🙂

Did you Unsubscribe from thm mail ?
Only support can help you with payment related issues . It may take up to a week to get a reply
Hey all! I’m new to THM but had a quick question. Is it normal that an attack box changes depending on what time you’re working on it? E.g yesterday I was working on cracking something running on port 8080, but logged out and came back to it the next day after spinning up a new attack box on a new IP, and I found that port 8080 was closed so I couldn’t continue on the path I was on yesterday. All the other ports and stuff were the same though. Is this a bug or is it expected/realistic behaviour. Happy to divulge more details over PM.
Hey, welcome to TryHackMe! 👋
Every time you terminate your AttackBox (or if TryHackMe does it automatically), progress you made on the AttackBox resets. Same thing applies with terminating a box you're targetting.
Depending on the box you're attacking, it might have dynamically changed ports on reset to prevent an automated script from quickly completing the room in one go or something. I would advise re-enumerating the open ports and then retrying the attack with the new port you find. In addition, make sure other progress you did up until the attack last time was also done again this time.
Hope this helps! 👍
Cool, thanks for the tip! Good to know re: resetting the progress. I thought that maybe the port changed too, so I did another scan for open ports, but it seems to just be missing entirely! I think I can still finish the room without that particular foothold though, but was just wondering if I was missing something or not.

I have an OpenVPN issue.
For the past while now, it looks like my config files have not been working with my OpenVPN clients.
Current client I'm on is OpenVPN Connect 3.6.0 (4074) with an operating system of Windows 11 Pro (24H2) [Build 26100.4061] [Experience 1000.26100.84.0].
-# (Yes I know this is bad practice, but I haven't set up VMs yet on this computer and I don't mind if it gets broken into.)
Usually I try to connect on the US-East-Regular-1 region, but I also attempted EU-VIP-1 (regenerated file of course) and still didn't work.
The notice that keeps showing up in the log before the client terminates is the following: ```
Client exception in transport_rev: crypto_alg: SHA512: bad digest for data channel use
Any suggestions on how to fix? (Currently using AttackBox but I'd rather be able to use my own tools.)
I am in the room eritsecurusi and everytime I run gobuster the target goes the way of the dodo, what's up with that?
I’m in the room/Osimodelzi and the OSI Dungeon panel is not working. Kindly look into that.
Can you provide a room link ?
Room link please
Hey guys, are attack machines lagging idk if it's for everyone or just me, yesterday on the same time did it too, but this morning I didn't have any trouble with it
I dunno, mine already commits sudoku with a little bit of gobuster
Kk thank 😦
How it is not working ?
hey guys i am trying to access machines via openvpn from the browser and it doesn't seem to work i just see loading, while pinging the ip and scanning works, i checked i am connected to openvpn but still i am not able to access the machines through the browser
Can you provide some shots please ?
Maybe you have an mtu issue , open up a new terminal and run this cmd
sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200

anyone else getting this rn?
so I havent used the vpn before, if I connect, I should use an attacking machine within this vpn, right, should I be using a vm? and as far as these machines go, is a new one spawn per user/connection? or is there the risk of a compromised machine performing an attack on me?
You should use a VM.
The risk is always there.
I remember some time ago when I tried getting the vpn working, I was getting mitm certs when priority was put on the vpn
was just testing it, and I couldnt even ping the machine, I have it set up to 'only access resources'
How are you setting the VPN up?
Starting June 16th, 2025, the price of our monthly subscription will increase for both existing and new subscribers. The annual subscription price will remain unchanged.
i got my team ready for the ctf but when i try to join the room nothing happens. am i doing something wrong?
hello for Crypto Echoed Streams is the files missing ?
import it into gnome connection manager, and set it to not import routes and 'only access available resources'
maybe the routing is the issue
I'll just spin up a vm later with just that vpn

I'm having trouble with the Network Services 2 MySQL module. After starting the machine and conducting a successful nmap scan, I can't seem to connect to the mysql service. It just stays loading and doesn't go through. I've tried resetting the machine and reconnecting via openvpn but no change.
I had a similar issue with the NFS module, where the server directory wouldn't mount onto my machine. I got an error message saying the server refused to comuunicate. Issue was unresolved even after machine reset.
Do you get any errors ?
No. Just hangs
What is the problem 🙂 ?
Can you please verify and provide some shots 🙂 ?
Sure. Do I just send them in here?

Do I drop the screenshots now?
Yup 🙂
There's not really much info here because I had to interrupt after some minutes. Pings to the IP were successful btw.
Oh and I'm using WSL if that matters
Yes, I can. I can even ping boxes outside of the CTF room. Only CTF room boxes, I can't connect.
Seems like your connection is fine . Can you see your ip reflected on the 10.10.10.10 website
That may be a problem
A lot of users reported connection problems with wsl
Yes, I can see my IP. Also, see the flag. But when I try to ping any machines in the CTF (Industrial Intrusion) room, I can't.
Ah. That makes sense. Cuz I've had similar errors with other rooms. Just going to have to skip over or use the Attackbox then
That may be part of the challenge 🙂
I would recommend you to install some Linux VM if you can
Well I was working from the Attack box in the morning, completed half the challenge on one machine, but it (Attack box) expired after one hour (since I'm on the free tier). The same machine when I try to access using VPN, I can't connect to it.
This worked. @ember osprey
That’s an option too yeah. System doesn’t do too well with vms tho
Thanks anyways. Appreciate the help

Verify and provide some shots
@ember osprey Does the CTF challenge need to install tools that is not on the attack box?
Maybe you will need something that's not preinstalled on AttackBox
Depends on your preferences
But I don't need right?
Yeah it should be well equipped with tools from all cateogries but again it also depends on your preferences

Or ultimately try with paypal if you can.

Wdym bounced ?
I don't know how to explain it it's just a term people use.
Hi, I had a quick question about whether I'm even on a team or not and if I'm not where 2 of my flags came from..?
Try to ask in #1388145526268235887 channel 🙂
Hey! i’ve been trying to connect to machines on tryhackme, downloaded the ovpn config, connected successfully (got a tun0 IP), but i cant ping the machine’s ip or even 10.10.10.10. I tried everything including the troubleshooting script from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting/master/thm-troubleshoot, it says connection is fine but still nothing works, even on premium servers, no luck. Im connecting from Russia, would really appreciate some help

can we kick one player and add another ?
right now on-going ctf
is that fine?
Where are you from If I may ask and which server are you using ?
Try to ask in #1388145526268235887 channel 🙂
I’ve been getting that from mine too. Figured it was just me.
I tried switching vip servers a couple times. Ended up just say f it. Went back to trying to wrap my head around doing some bug bounty.
Yeah it has been reported to staff members should be fixed soon 🙂
ok, how do I switch apps in the attackbox? I cant seem to find a window list or working shortcut
move cursor to the middle right of the screen , tray should pop-up
ah that's it, was thinking it was just quick launch
anything I an do to make this run more smoothly, it's very laggy
linux hardened firefox
Not really
You can use your own machine via VPN
yeah didnt get a chance to set that up yet, been without internet for a while
if im miss the one freeze day and im current have 195 days in streak how i can get another one of freeze day ?
You can usually get those during CTFs / events
Pretty sure you also get one every milestone you reach
Unfortunately it does not stack
Russia
tried out a few different servers
That may be a problem , 🇷🇺 blocks VPN connections , many users from there reported the problem . That's out of THM's reach . Using AttackBox may be your only option until the situation changes 😦
thats sad
Well it is but THM can't do anything about that 😦
thanks for the reply!
There are some lessons where I must open the deployable machine and when I press start nothing is shown. If I refresh the page the start button disappears. I am using Brave browser
Hi, I need admin or anyone who can help me with an issue in my thm account.
what's the issue
the discord account that connected to my thm account seems to be incorrectly
@golden violet
@unique ingot
did you follow those steps?
Brave blocks some pop-ups and you may have problems with split-view in Brave , try to use Chrome if possible
Same thing happens on edge
Are you using browser extensions / ad-blockers
This machine shouldn't start in spilt view , you're supposed to connect to it via ssh using your AttackBox
Yeah this one isn't accessible in split view
i can't seem to access the vpn. these are the errors i get. the first is just when i do sudo open vpn. the other is the troubleshooting script. i'm trying to us US-West-VIP-1 since i'm on the east coast and there isn't one for the east.
Can you try with eu-regular 3 and 4?
it will be a few min. i'll try
Hey all, sorry for the stupid question
I am trying to do the summit room in cyber defence frameworks.. When I launch machine I get the ip and everything but I can't work out how to connect to that machine
are you connected using the vpn or are you trying to use the attack box? if trying to connect then you have to check uner access if your connected first.
I was wanting to use attack box but I have no option to launch that at the top of the room as normal
I did grab some pictures if you want to see?
As I say I'm almost 100% sure it's me being stupid lol
hey can I ask what methods Indian learners are using to get premium because my payment is not getting through and my premium has expired, the card I used earlier is not working anymore , you can DM me regarding this issue also thanks
when connected to eu-regular 3 i get the same thing. when running troubleshooting. i get [-] MTU value failed at 1000, aborting MTU check
[-] Something went wrong -- please ask for further assistance in the TryHackMe Discord server, subreddit, or forum
Can you access 10.10.10.10 ?
no.
i tryed to ping 10.10.10.10 and got nothing
I don't see any errors here , looks good
Leave this terminal running
It should be opened this way , it indicates that the openvpn is running
ok. just not seeing the normal flow of info is all. had me worried
No this is how it should be 🙂
thanks. everything says it's connected

I am having some problems with OpenVPN on Ubuntu Linux. I get "Initialization Sequence Completed" and I can connect to 10.10.10.10, but the "OpenVPN Access Details" from https://tryhackme.com/access says that I am still not connected. I'm very new to using linux, so maybe I'm already connected? In that case, how do I connect to the target machine in a room? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Payment functionality is down or is there issue on my side? Bocz i used multiple cards but it gives same error

For payment related issues contact the support directly on the email below 🙂
I have been getting instance termination for around every 5 min for few days.
I am not sure why it keeps happening
Works fine for me , try to clear your browser cache , avoid using browser extensions / ad-blockers and Brave browser if possible
It works now! Thank you so much.
If it starts happening again just refresh the page , works in 90% of cases 🙂
The problem is I don't have premium on and my subscription got cancelled.... Can't access site so this is an issue for me
Only support can help you with that , you'll have to wait for them to reply

Monday monitor rooms VM seems running, bur doesnt open on stlit view
It shouldn't open in split-view , click link provided in the task to use the app once the machine starts 🙂
I'm trying it's still slow especially while using burp suite
Burp Suite community edition is intentionally throttled by PortSwigger , that's how it is supposed to work
it just loads like 5 min and after 1 min
that not burp suite fault because the web itself not loading without it also.
Maybe you have an mtu issue , open up a new terminal and run this cmd
sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200
I now checked again it was foxyproxy problem.
I think.
Make sure to disable Interceptor in Burp if you want to browse the web
