Where else would you add it?

#

ohhh

#

nah i was j making sure lol

#

thank you I got it!

eager fulcrum May 9, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

The reason you can access different sites depending on the name you use is something called VHOSTs

#

Look into it

torn fossil May 9, 2020, 9:48 PM

#

So adding a wildcard like *.thm.com would allow me to not need to do it for every subdomain?

eager fulcrum May 9, 2020, 9:48 PM

uh maybe

ok thanks @eager fulcrum 😄

#

shit, There were 2 openvpn up ^^

#

(after killed the official one)

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:14 AM

#

issue disappeared. I will know for the next time, is it a Ctrl-C that can let this zombie process ?

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

Backgrounding is what normally causes you to run 2

#

Control C is fine

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

I remember double Ctrl-C avoiding the process to finishing properly

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

What?

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

hum sorry bad EN

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

Control C sends a SIGTERM signal

#

The process exits properly

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

yes, but if you ctrl-c again duringg this process, is exit properly too ?

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

It sends sigterm again

#

Nothing happens

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

hum, Sat May 9 21:18:25 2020 SIGINT[hard,] received, process exiting

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

Yeah

#

That's fine

split kettle May 10, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

I just tried, double Ctrl-C and it's a instantly exit

#

Simple Ctrl-C => SIGTERM[soft,exit-with-notification] received, process exiting
Double Ctrl -C => SIGINT[hard,] received, process exiting

find /* | grep x 2>> /dev/null doesn't take out restricted file logs

eager fulcrum May 10, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

You're piping the errors for grep

#

Not for find

#

And find /* is bad

#

And should not be done

#

The correct way is find /

#

Because find /* is globbed

Hello guys,
I'm Ali from Egypt. I'm having an issue connecting to TryHackMe VPN due to blocking VPN UDP connection here in Egypt. I'm just wondering if there is any possibility to connect using TCP instead. There is a similar configuration on HackTheBox and it works here.
Thanks all!

If it's the latter it sounds like a localised issue (your connection speed)

prisma nest May 11, 2020, 12:01 PM

#

@zealous yoke i just did simple test , i Lunch THM Kali , and put a large file for download on it , now on my ubuntu machine ovpn to THM and start download it

#

my download speed is about 120Kb/s

#

but when i download that file from THM Kali over internet Internet my download speed is 3Mb/s

#

that why my nmap and gobuster and ... is run slowly from my own machine

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 12:04 PM

#

So that'll be a factor of both openvpn overhead and your geographic distance from the vpn servers

#

I don't imagine it'd make too much of a difference but try switching servers

prisma nest May 11, 2020, 12:05 PM

#

yes i want make it sure , but nobody want test it 🙂

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 12:05 PM

#

There's nothing really we can test - you've done more then we can

prisma nest May 11, 2020, 12:06 PM

#

i want sure its my ISP issue or something else

#

i know some isps Throttle Speed after connect ovpn

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

Very possibly

crisp wing May 11, 2020, 12:40 PM

#

I might be having the same problem. although ti seems too slow for even that.
webpages hosted by the servers won't load. I have experienced this with the burp suite intro where only the login form loaded and I have the same problem in the OWASP Juice Shop

eager fulcrum May 11, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

Is burp intercepting?

crisp wing May 11, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

no. right now I am testing without burp.

#

I also seem to be getting a lot of disconnect from the Kali machine today.

#

I also still have those ssh problems when connecting from my own machine.

Hey noob here, I'm on the RP: metasploit room doing task 5 challenge 1, i keep trying to run the command provided but it keeps saying that the database is not connected? i tried to search around here but couldn't find anything. Any help shall be appreciated.

eager fulcrum May 11, 2020, 1:39 PM

#

msfdb init or msfdb start

earnest void May 11, 2020, 1:50 PM

#

i started it using msfconsole and then used the command it tells me to use : db_nmap -sV BOX-IP

#

even just typing db_nmap by itself it sasy that the database is not connected

#

i just re-read your response and tried using msf init and start. it says the database is already started and when i run the command it says it's disconnected

eager fulcrum May 11, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

~~tbf you can skip db_nmap if everything else works, just run nmap~~

earnest void May 11, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

that worked, thanks!

torn citrus May 11, 2020, 2:10 PM

#

@earnest void you can start Metasploit with the database running with “msfdb run” or “service postgresql start” then start Metasploit.

#

There’s a few ways to do it, as James showed above.

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:10 PM

When you say "machine" - what do you mean exactly?

#

THM Kali VM or...?

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

kali machine. i leaked the password ip and name of the vm

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

ah

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

it isnt smart to do it onstream haha

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:10 PM

Yes you can change it to whatever you like

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:11 PM

#

where can i do that., need to be fast 😅

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:11 PM

#

very easy to google

#

passwd although

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:11 PM

#

thx bro

#

Sorry to ask again but next to the normal root access the rdp password can be changed also right?

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:16 PM

#

the RDP password of a user is linked to the user's system password

#

so if you change a users system pass, their RDP will change too in this case

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:17 PM

#

Perfect. so i hope i can use the machine onstream without leaking any other information which are important. sorry i am a beginner in this scene.

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

Yeah with no problems 🙂

#

Well you'll give out the IP address...

#

isn't exactly sensitive though

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

yea but that isnt the problem i think. without the login credentials.

#

is there an option to turn off the machine?

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

Pretty much - especially as you'll only have it for an hour. You can enumerate for kali boxes anyway aha

#

yes but no. You technically can but you shouldn't as you wouldn't be able to bring the box back up. It's one way street

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

yea true. so after stream i cant reset the machine

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

It's ephemeral just like any other instance you deploy 🙂

#

Once it expires it's as if it never existed.

#

You deploy again, you'll get a different IP and the vm will be brand new

#

(including the default passwords etc...)

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

thx.

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

Essentially don't store any files on there because if you were to come back the next day they're gone!

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

ok. so after the stream i terminate the machine and everything fine

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:23 PM

#

if by "fine" you mean that whatever you had done on it doesn't exist after you terminate it - yes 🙂

serene fjord May 11, 2020, 11:24 PM

#

yes that is perfect. everthing i leaked doesnt exists anymore

zealous yoke May 11, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

I mean, the IP address might end up assigned to another Kali VM eventually but

#

yeah all is good 🙂

how exactly does this streak work? about 14 hours ago i solved my last task and the streak was at 1. now i log in and the streak is at 0. why is that? did a whole day pass in these 14 hours?

celest sapphire May 12, 2020, 2:16 PM

#

the last task probably counts as on previous day, if you solve a task now it should be 1/2

shell lagoon May 12, 2020, 2:17 PM

#

its 1 now after i solved a task

#

at what time is the server reset?

celest sapphire May 12, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

days are counted according to BTC from what I saw on the clientside scripts

shell lagoon May 12, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

whats btc?

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

Probably meant BST?

#

Or UTC

celest sapphire May 12, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

yeah bst, my bad

shell lagoon May 12, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

but timezones shouldnt matter here, dont they? if you solve a task and your streak is 1 then its not possible for the streak to be 0 just 14 hours later. because even if the reset was minutes after i solved the task, the next day still isnt over.

#

or am i missing something?

#

as i understand the streak, it resets to 0 if you have a full day without solving a task. so in the best case (if you solve the last task just before the day is over) it takes a bit more than 24 hours for the streak to reset to 0.

#

From the FAQs: "If the time between your last answered question and the current time is more than 24h, your streak is reset."

#

so, my last task is definitely not more than 24 hours ago

trim rapids May 12, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

What changes do I need to make to the kali machine to be able to use hashcat?

#

Because of the OpenCL issue

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 8:21 PM

Best bet is using john

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 8:23 PM

@trim rapids Yeah you can crack those hashes in John instead

trim rapids May 12, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

ok

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

Hashcat inside VMs isn't great

#

It's better when it has access to a GPU

#

I run it on Windows so I get nice perf

trim rapids May 12, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

Unfortunate, hashcat is better for quick cracking since it's better optimized and you don't need to create a new file

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

huh?

#

Hashcat isn't better optimised if you can't get it to run

brisk steeple May 12, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

i tried with the new one

trim rapids May 12, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

fair

brisk steeple May 12, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

still no luck

eager fulcrum May 12, 2020, 8:25 PM

#

Hashcat is normally faster because it can use GPUs out of the box

#

John can be compiled to get OpenCL support but by default it's CPU

hey, theres a problem on the "Ignite" room, at the last part when you get a reverse shell, the reverse shell won't take backspaces and interpretes them as "^?" and when i /bin/sh all characters are doubled, even those pasted,( s = ss, etc...), but it works out normal if i reverse shell from that reverse shell, so its just weird and wanted to point it out

eager fulcrum May 13, 2020, 12:49 AM

yup i am new to tryhackme. On the dashboard i have 5/6 in the 'Getting Started' path but i can join Linux Challanges as im redirected to the subscribe page.

i am also running in the room rpmetasploit and theimpossiblechallange so i dont know if its blocking it

then you should be able to join as much rooms as you like

naive dust May 13, 2020, 7:06 AM

@safe nimbus Some rooms are free rooms, however others are subscriber only so unless you subscribe you will not be able to access them.

Once you've subscribed which I naturally recommend you can join as many rooms as you like as you will have full access to the website.

how do i know if a room is free or not without joining? i am however planning to subscribe

naive dust May 13, 2020, 7:10 AM

#

If you click into the room that you are wanting to access - where you see the tasks section come up it will mention there in brackets whether it's a subscription only room or a free room.

safe nimbus May 13, 2020, 7:12 AM

#

yes i noticed that on the other room i can access but i cant access 'Linux Challanges' because i am getting redirected to the subscription page.

naive dust May 13, 2020, 7:13 AM

If there's more than one line (and the second doesn't have "grep" in it), do the following steps

Type killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter

Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>

Shouldn't make a difference (to my understanding) as long as you are connected to one at a time - you are using the correct OVPN file aren't you? 🙂

Can we connect to the vpn on 2 machines at the same time ?

zealous yoke May 13, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

Nope @bold torrent it will cause each one to flick between being connected and not connected constantly

#

In turn making them both unusable 🙂

bold torrent May 13, 2020, 1:55 PM

#

That's what i've juste experienced ^^

#

So maybe there is an other solution, in this time i'm not at home and don't have my VM, i wanted to use my macbook to browse boxes and ssh my VPS to use kali but of course this means i need 2 vpn connections at the same time, any ideas ?

eager fulcrum May 13, 2020, 1:57 PM

Why would you need two VPN connections?

bold torrent May 13, 2020, 1:58 PM

one for the mac os to browse boxes, and one for my vps ?

#

nvm, i just have to use thm's kali ^^'

zealous yoke May 13, 2020, 1:59 PM

You can VPN to your VPS using your own setup and then VPN from VPS to Kali

#

Wouldn't expect great performance in the slightest but...it's an option

eager fulcrum May 13, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

You can use THM's Kali and run the VPN on your mac

Yup, i'm gonna use THM's kali, better option, thanks !

eager fulcrum May 13, 2020, 2:03 PM

The other options are:
Tunnel your traffic elsewhere first
Hack from a VPS or something using the VPN
Use the THM subscriber kali, it's faster now

Questions that don't require an answer give no points

#

Rooms that are classes as a walkthrough give 8pts per question

Hi guys, I've been solving tasks from rooms since couple of days but today my streak meter went down to 0 and back to 1 when I solved challenge. I guess there is something wrong with it or I understand it incorrectly.

That's my activity from the profile.
