Well, no premium for me today I guess 😦

naive dust
#

@bronze vale i was going to install vmware and there is about 40 different installations i can get, which one do you reccomend for a beginner?

bronze vale
#

If you’re talking about VMware downloads* I believe it’s called VMware workstation, which is the free version. Get recently released installer with a .iso file for Kali Linux

naive dust
#

alright cool i already got the iso thank you

eager fulcrum
#

That's still probably a question for #general

naive dust
#

alright lol

flint hawk
#

VMWare Workstation is really great, but it has a 30 day trial

#

Like when it comes to issues, I've had none, but I remember having some weird stuff happen with VBox even with my short stint with it

bronze vale
#

VMware workstation player is the free sorry*

simple needle
#

what is my tryhackme ip?

#

is it the openvpn ip

eager fulcrum
#

The IP of your attacking machine, for reverse shells and stuff, is your tun0 adapter IP

#

your openVPN IP

simple needle
#

my attacking machine meaning the ipv4 address?

eager fulcrum
#

Your attacking machine meaning the machine you're running the VPN on

simple needle
#

oh okay

#

so the tryhackme ip is the ip that shows in openvpn

eager fulcrum
#

I mean I don't know the context for this

#

But probably?

simple needle
#

im trying to set my lhost

#

in metasploit

eager fulcrum
#

That will be correct then

#

if it's a 10.x.x.x IP

simple needle
#

oh

#

its not

eager fulcrum
#

It will be 10.x.x.x, but not 10.10.x.x

#

Are you on a linux machine?

simple needle
#

in the metasploit room, question 9 in task 5 says to set lhost as my tryhackme ip

#

Are you on a linux machine?
@eager fulcrum im on mac

eager fulcrum
#

Are you using a VM to attack or are you running metasploit on macos?

simple needle
#

im running metasploit on macos

eager fulcrum
#

Ok, you'll probably need to disable your firewall as well.
If you go to http://10.10.10.10/ it will tell you your VPN IP address

simple needle
#

oh okay thank you

#

if i dont disable my firewall will that effect anything

eager fulcrum
#

Yes, your exploit will not succeed

#

Because the reverse shell connection will be blocked

simple needle
#

okay

eager fulcrum
#

Most likely at least, it depends on the config

simple needle
#

disabling my firewall is dangerous tho is there any alternative solution?

#

Most likely at least, it depends on the config
@eager fulcrum i'll try the exploit just incase

eager fulcrum
#

disabling my firewall is dangerous tho is there any alternative solution?
@simple needle Not particularly, but there's a reason most people attack from a VM

#

It's just your device firewall, there's not that much risk associated with it. Attackers till can't talk to closed ports.

simple needle
#

i would attack from a vm but running just an iOS simulator slows the device a lot so a vm is most likely not gonna run

#

It's just your device firewall, there's not that much risk associated with it. Attackers till can't talk to closed ports.
@eager fulcrum okay thank you

eager fulcrum
#

I run a VM on a 2014 mid range business laptop happily.

sharp bear
#

If you have a tryhackme sub you can use the in browser kali or attack machine

simple needle
#

I run a VM on a 2014 mid range business laptop happily.
@eager fulcrum oh wow

#

If you have a tryhackme sub you can use the in browser kali or attack machine
@sharp bear yeah ik but i unfortunately dont have a sub

#

i turned off my firewall and ran the exploit but im getting the error: Handler not able to bind to 10.x.xxx.xx

eager fulcrum
#

VPN probably isn't running correctly then

#

I really really recommend creating a kali VM and using that. Run the VPN directly in Kali.

simple needle
#

i'll try that

#

thanks for all the help

shy holly
#

what is the username for Nmap room

eager fulcrum
#

You're not meant to log in to that machine

shy holly
#

yes

eager fulcrum
#

yes
@shy holly What do you mean by that?

shy holly
#

I mean I am unable to login, and i need username and password for that machine a

eager fulcrum
#

You're not meant to log in to that machine

shy holly
#

Oh okay

eager fulcrum
#

No, you do not.

#

You don't touch the VM for that room, other than nmapping it

sturdy wigeon
#

not sure if i missed something but why are the ip addresses not shown right away anymore?

eager fulcrum
#

Skidy/Ashu won't disclose the exact reason

#

So it's probably security related

sturdy wigeon
#

ohh... ok icic

final flame
#

Hello all, my apologies if this is not the correct place to ask, but how can I copy a flag from the in browser terminal to my own browser? I'm on a mac

eager fulcrum
#

There should be a button on the left hand side

#

Give the site access to your clipboard

final flame
#

yes sorry, this browser is in the room itself, in linux challenges

#

not my kali machine

eager fulcrum
#

SSH in.

final flame
#

ohhhh

eager fulcrum
#

You'll have a much better time.

final flame
#

good call, thanks!

naive dust
#

Im using parrot for refrence, How am i able to tell if my openVPN is setup correct and how do i run it if it is?

flint hawk
#

You mean as if you're connected to the network?

naive dust
#

yeah

flint hawk
#

You can use any box to really check, but this room is good for testing connectivity

naive dust
#

ah alright cool thanks

flint hawk
#

Once you run the command on Parrot, open up a new Terminal window and let it sit in the background doing its thing

naive dust
#

yeah its connected, thank you!

eager fulcrum

ionic lantern
#

hi, i need help with ssh, who can help me?

bronze vale
#

What do you need help with specifically? :)

ionic lantern
#

i use kali in virtual machine, so i installed openvpn and started it. after that in task i should deploy a machine and connect to it via ssh. so i tryed to and it didnt ask me about username or password, it just said that fingerprint created and added. so i tryed to connect to that ip but whatever i do it said - go away

#

i just dont kno wht to do already(((

bronze vale
#

Are you using ssh username@machineip as the format for ssh?

ionic lantern
#

im trying) but - wht username to use? it didnt ask and yes user@ip

bronze vale
#

Is this the learn Linux room?

ionic lantern
#

yeah must be

bronze vale
#

Both the username and password are shiba1 :)

ionic lantern
#

omg

#

OMG)))

#

someone really should change the explaining to that lesson))

digital apex
#

any solution for this issue?

bronze vale
#

Yeah it’s a little tough, happy hacking @ionic lantern

ionic lantern
#

i really thought that shiba1 was just for example)))

digital apex
#

i cant connect to my vpn

bronze vale
#

@digital apex have you changed VPN servers

digital apex
#

yea

#

and also redownloaded

#

and then tried

bronze vale
#

@deep trellis

#

Could you assist please

#

User is getting a handshake failed error on OpenVPN

#

They have attempted to switch VPN server and redownload the configuration file.

digital apex
#

i m in middle of koth

#

;-;

bronze vale
#

Can you try typing killall openvpn and re-start it

digital apex
#

it says no process found

bronze vale
#

Hm okay

placid mango
#

Maybe try restarting your pc.

digital apex
#

its solved

bronze vale
#

It’s solved?

digital apex
#

i changed it again

#

killed all openvpn process

#

and it worked on us 1

bronze vale
#

Oh okay awesome

digital apex
#

thx @bronze vale

bronze vale
#

Which server were you trying to connect to

#

Originally

digital apex
#

eu 1

bronze vale
#

Strange, okay thank you

minor fjord
#

Is there a way to change the discord related to the TryHackMe token?

bronze vale
#

Not currently.

#

Why is there an issue with your token?

minor fjord
#

I changed my Discord account and linked my old account ... This is the subject of my email but I still have no response

bronze vale
#

You’ll need to ping one of the mods and kindly ask them to remove the token off your old account :)

minor fjord
#

Okay, thanks you

ionic lantern

and again(( wht shell im using when logon?? echo says bash - wrong answer

Room, Task

Since when welcome room has Task #12

ionic lantern

well - it is learn linux (but in adress in link it is welcome room) / 12

vernal ruin
#

Learn Linux Room

#

What task

ionic lantern
#

12

vernal ruin
#

You can't run su shiba2 ?

ionic lantern
#

How do you specify which shell is used when you login?

#

su shiba 2 is not the problem at all)

vernal ruin
#

Task 12 doesn't ask you to do that at all

#

But you can change the defualt shell after you login using chsh or just temporarily use another shell by just invoking it

ionic lantern
#

[Task 12] su

Now that we have our next user password, it seems like a good time to cover su. su is a command that allows you to change the user, without logging out and logging back in again. For example if you wanted to switch to shiba2 while you're the user shiba1, you would type su shiba2 . You would then be prompted for a password and if you entered shiba2's password you would then become shiba2

Note: Typing su on its own is equivalent to typing su root.

Don't post answers here @ionic lantern 🙂

#

It's borked, halp

#

Restarted, regenerated, changed servers, looks like an issue at my end

bronze vale
#

@vernal ruin are you on EU1?

vernal ruin
#

yes

#

That's the closest to me

bronze vale
#

@deep trellis Is EU1 broken on your end? That’s the second person who’s got an issue with it

#

For now you’ll have to use Non-Eu servers :/ thats the fix for someone else

wind wedge
#

My eu1 broke so I switched back to EU2

#

This was like 10 mins ago

#

Just gets stuck halfway

bronze vale
#

Yeah Eu1 is borked, that’s my second ping to Skidy so I’ll just leave it for him to fix in his own time.

wind wedge
#

First it was EU2 now EU1

vernal ruin
#

I have tried with all the servers avaiable

bronze vale
#

Uh-oh

#

I doubt it’s server side but who knows

vernal ruin
#

Is this how it should be ? Isn't the internal ip here

#

idk, it's just stuck at this point, looks like it doesn't know what to do with this server

bronze vale
#

I don’t have my Pc on to cross reference so I have no clue

#

I’ll check OpenVPN on my phone

#

Eu2 seems fine for me :/

vernal ruin
#

I literally tried every sever available to me, it's weird

sinful coral
#

Can't figure out why this is happening in room BLASTER

#

There is no history.

vernal ruin
sinful coral
#

@vernal ruin it's technical problem

#

There should be browsing history

#

It's not here.

vernal ruin
#

It's a know bug yes

#

I once again kindly ask you to check the pins in #room-help

@vernal ruin ok

Are you trying to download the setup file for kali @simple needle

vernal ruin
#

I may already have completed all the walkthroughs

bronze vale
#

I did ask around and nobody else has had issues with Eu2, are you sure you've tried all servers?

#

@zealous yoke Are you available to assist?
Skidy seems to be unavailable at the moment and some issues are occuring with the handshake on openvpn.
Eu1 has seemed to be causing the most issues.

deep trellis
#

Hey

#

I'm about

bronze vale
#

Oh Skidy! :D

deep trellis
#

Busy but about:)

#

What's up?

bronze vale
#

Eu1 is the only server has been reported

deep trellis
#

Has this been reported in the last hour?

#

Because I saw the issue and fixed it in the background.

bronze vale
#

Quantum just re-reported it so I'm not sure

vernal ruin
#

Let me change servers for the last time rn and I will report back

deep trellis
#

Please regenerate your config too

bronze vale
#

Thank you Skidy btw ❤️

vernal ruin
#

Noted, thanks ♥️

@vernal ruin 😂

round orchid
#

What is the time frame for the daily streak resetting?

#

It seems like I lose my streak if I don't get to it by lunch time

vernal ruin
#

Imagine a timer, every time you answer a question, it resets and if the counter reaches 24 hours, you loose your streak

#

@round orchid

round orchid
#

So how long do I need to wait before I can answer another question to increase my streak?

#

Midnight UTC?

vernal ruin
#

You can answer anytime you want, and as soon as you answer, you have to answer the next question before 24 hours are over

round orchid
#

Then I would just need to answer 30 questions to get the 30 streak badge?

vernal ruin
#

@zealous yoke Is a new day* being calculated for everyone at the same time or it's different for everyone according to the first question they answered

#

Then I would just need to answer 30 questions to get the 30 streak badge?
I get the question, hold on

zealous yoke
#

You have 24 hours from the last time you answered a question before the streak will expire (:

#

e.g. if you answer a question at 13:00 UTC, you have until 13:00 UTC to answer another to count the streak

vernal ruin
#

Yeah I told him that, he want to know when does the "new" day starts

zealous yoke
#

Ah

#

Yeah it's 24 hours from your last answer

#

you could answer 10 questions in a day

#

the timer will set from the time that you answer the last question (:

vernal ruin
#

Okay Imagine this, I answered the first question 10:00 EST, and got 1 streak point. I answered another question at 15:00 EST and now I have until 15:00 EST next day to answer or I loose my streak. I have 1 streak point rn. He his asking that if now even if I answer another one at 16:00 EST and I have again 24 hours to answer, I don't get streak points just yet. So what's the "new" day for me to get the streak point. Is it 24 hours from the first question I answered that landed me streak of the day

#

@zealous yoke

zealous yoke
#

From my understanding it would be the first time you answer a question that would addition to your current count, and then then the last time you answer a flag that would set the timer to 24 hours until it expires

vernal ruin
#

@round orchid Does that clear it ?

#

Thanks CMN, I'm still a little confused tho

zealous yoke
#

That’s my latest understanding of how streaks works in all honestly

#

I’d love to be able to get the time to write something formal on the help site and get outlines it all in all honesty

deep dagger
#

Hi to everyone! I have a problem with the Blue tutorial. I thinks there is an issue, i've already reported it. Btw, if anyone has the same problem, I tried to perform a vuln scan with nmap and it appears the machine isn't vulnerable to ms17-010. In fact, when I try to exploit with metasploit it fails.

bronze vale
#

Show me your metasploit options please

#

Are you connected to the VPN btw?

deep dagger
#

Yes, I'm connected. I set the RHOSTS well.

round orchid
#

@vernal ruin @zealous yoke To me it still sounds like I would be able to answer 30 questions (in one sitting) and be awarded the 30 day streak medal

vernal ruin
#

No, you won't. You can't get two streak points within 24 hours and you will looks streak completely if you don't answer the next one within 24 hours

round orchid
#

Ah I re-read it, now i see what you're saying, I understand

How do I execute msfvenom if the command isn't found

#

ok now for real tech support. In firefox it appears that I cannot paste my clipboard into the kali web session

toxic python

you have to allow clipboard access or something

This is best done by opening it into a new tab by pressing "Full Screen"

#

you should get a pop up asking you to allow clipboard access (:

Hello, I wrote an email to the support two weeks ago about my account problems and my emails has not been answered till now but I’m not here to complain about that. I’m here to ask if I’m allowed to write a message to skidy? And ask him about my account problem?

toxic python
#

Uh, I think they'd rather not be tagged and just wait for the email. That being said there are 2 people answering all the emails they get so it's understandable that it's slow.

I suppose you can tag Skidy since he's on right now and if he has time to answer, he may

Unless it's absolutely critical, I'd recommend waiting for their response from support@tryhackme.com @lime mica there's only one (another person is away) answering the emails at the moment. I can assure you they're not ignoring, it's just rather a backlog if anything. Another email may not hurt, be ensure to enclude as many details to your problem as possible to aid in the response time ^^

@potent tangle I don't think that's on the supported list

#

I am using the "Access on the in-browser Linux Machine"
@strong jay The in browser linux machine is your attacking machine, the machines you deploy in rooms are the target machines

Oh, okay. I see what you are saying. I was reading it as deploy the VM in the browser or OpenVPN but this is a step BEFORE that. Thank you.

#

i think i know what it is, im not using the server thats closest to me

flint hawk
#

I redirected them here since the problem seems to not be resolved with the OVPN room

solar basin
#

looks like even using the server closest to me doesnt even work

#

weird.

flint hawk
#

Okay, we need more details to help you

#

Which OS are you using OVPN on?

solar basin
#

Windows 10

flint hawk
#

Okay, so you downloaded your configuration file, imported it into the OVPN application, and what is the failure message exactly? Can you take a screenshot of what you see?

solar basin
#

this

supple sonnet
#

MeguThonk ideally you'd want to try this on Kali

solar basin
#

so i should just download it on Kali?

#

because it did say we have to use OpenVPN if we wanna use our own VPN connection

flint hawk
#

Wait, do you have a Kali VM already set up?

solar basin
#

yes

flint hawk
#

You don't run OVPN on Windows, just on Kali

solar basin
#

okay

#

i used it on windows before so i thought it was on windows lol xD

flint hawk
#

You should be able to drag-and-drop your config file over to your VM and run it in Terminal with this command sudo openvpn --config <config path>. <config path> is where you specify where the config file is held.

#

Nah, OVPN is only used to talk to THM's servers.

#

After you run that command in Terminal, it's going to hang and at this point, hold down ctrl + shift + T to open a new tab in Terminal and you can continue on that way. The tab running OVPN is supposed to sit in the background.

solar basin
#

ok

flint hawk
#

After that, open this page http://10.10.10.10/ on your VM. If it loads, you're connected

solar basin
#

thank you!!!

flint hawk
#

No problem. Did you get it working?

solar basin
#

im on the openvpn page rn

#

just trying to find the download for linux

flint hawk
#

OVPN is default installed on Kali

solar basin
#

oh okay!

#

i never got to use kali for personal use before

#

i did it in a simulator for an class i took online last semesyer

#

so it could only have so much simulated features

#

my apologies for the confusion!

flint hawk
#

Welcome to learning. You'll be confused a lot.

solar basin
#

school doesnt always teach you common sense and everything xD

#

i used testout for the class for college credit

flint hawk
#

We briefly touched on Pi VMs in one of my classes.

solar basin
#

and got the ethical hacker pro cert. I learned to use metasploit, john the ripper, ettercap, etc..

#

nice!

flint hawk
#

Well, you should be able to get up to speed quickly if you already have baseline knowledge of tools.

solar basin
#

alright so I clicked on VPN connections in Kali, and selected OpenVPN, let me send you a screenshot of what I have

#

I hope this is what i should be getting

#

im so used to windows

eager fulcrum
#

Don't use that

#

It will add broken routes

#

Just use the openvpn command line program, the OpenVPN room details how

solar basin
#

okay!

flint hawk
solar basin
#

okay!

#

i got it open

flint hawk
#

Okay, so referencing the command I posted above sudo openvpn --config <config path> , (change config path to where the config file is) we will type it in and hit enter

#

When it does, your screen will probably look kinda like mine, but without the tabs

solar basin
#

got another error, says i need to define the TUN/TAP device

#

should i specify the file name?

toxic python
#

Yes

solar basin
#

okay!

#

got it

flint hawk
#

All right, open up http://10.10.10.10/ in your VM and see if you're connected

solar basin
#

not connected

#

😦

wind wedge
#

Try without —config

solar basin
#

i just did 🙂

#

gonna see how it goes

#

command went through the command line

#

still doesnt work

eager fulcrum
#

Did you close the terminal? If not, don't.

solar basin
#

nope i got it open 🙂

#

im getting error messages in the terminal too

eager fulcrum
#

Please can you screenshot that for us?

solar basin
#

here you go 🙂

eager fulcrum
#

Are you in Egypt by Amy chance?

solar basin
#

no in the US

eager fulcrum
#

Welp OK, that's not so normal. Is your Kali machine's system time accurate?

solar basin
#

i found another way to install openvpn

#

yeah

flint hawk
#

What about regenerating the config or grabbing a new one?

i could try that!

Hi!
I am a new user and I am trying to complete my first room (Vulnversity). However I am experimenting some technical issues since the machine seems quite unresponsive. For instance even though I managed to "guess" the port open for web services, when scanning with nmap, this port appears as filtered. When trying to use GoBuster, the requests timeout.
I have doubled check that I am correctly connected using openVPN (both "server status" and "connected" are checked on the https://tryhackme.com/access page).
Does anyone have any tip for me?
Thanks a lot!

vernal ruin
#

Access page doesn't always tell the truth @woven zenith

#

Can you reach 10.10.10.10 ?

I am running Kali using WSL under W10. OpenVPN is running on W10. I cannot reach from any of the machines

Do not run OVPN on W10, run it on Kali

I

#

I'm doing the room "Steel Mountain". I got to the point where I need to use the exploit in metasploit, however, when I set LHOST it always uses eth0 instead of tun0

#

trying to figure out how to correct this

naive dust
#

I’m trying to add routes in kali
So, the 192.168.193.0/24 is the internal network; from this one, i am trying to reach other networks. One of the task is to find which ones and add a route to reach them.

To find the network, I have a wireshark file that show as from the 192.168.193.0/24 network's hosts, we can reach 2 web server, with these ip address:

10.86.74.7
10.85.174.87

So, what I have to do is to add a route from my internal network to this 2 others. The problem is that I have NOT the gateway of this network, cause "How many routers there are in the network" is one of the proposed question.
So, If i want execute these command:
ip route add -net 10.86.74.0/24 gateway_address dev tap0
ip route add -net 10.85.174.0/24 gateway_address dev tap0

what I miss is the gateway_address parameter. I tried to execute the command without this parameter, or:

ip route add -net 10.86.74.0/24 dev tap0

but, of course, I got the Destination Host Unreachable error when I try to ping one of the host.
So, my question is: how can I find the gateway address? May be the use of the Wireshark file? And if yes, what Is there something I can search for inside it?

Your eth0 address is your local IP address

hi guys. I just signed up and subscribed :)
when I try to open my kali browser based machine I get the following error:

#

any ideas?

bronze vale
#

Are you able to terminate and redeploy

crude sierra
#

I will try that now

#

btw: what do I have to choose? trhackme attackbox or kali?

bronze vale
#

Depends on what you prefer :3

crude sierra
#

well, what's the difference 😄

bronze vale
#

Attackbox I believe is optimised for rooms so it should have all tools you'll need (excluding hash cracking tools) iirc

#

It is fairly new

crude sierra
#

so terminating and deploying as kali instead of attackbox worked

bronze vale
#

Okay, would you be able to terminate again and try attackbox for me? I just want to make sure this is not an on going issue so we can resolve it now

crude sierra
#

sure thing

#

I can confirm the attackbox is also working now

#

so it was the classic "have you tried turning it off and on again?" problem 😄

bronze vale
#

Awesome! Thank you for doing that for me :) Enjoy the rest of your day and if you need any more site-related help, I should be here :)

You’re forgetting the port

#

Vulnersity’s web server isn’t just hosted at the IP. When you throw nmap at the address, you should be able to see a web server reporting at a port

lament sequoia
#

Thanks Bloke#2439, that worked

flint hawk
#

You need to include that port

#

Example of how it might look is 192.169.0.1:1. <IP>:<Port>

Hey, I just connected this morning and saw that in my complete beginner paths, those 3 rooms got reset for no reason ... :/
What am I supposed to do to get them back ?

#

When I go in "my rooms" i can clearly see that I've already completed the OWASP per exemple ^^

#

Oh, they have been updated

deep trellis
#

Thank you @deep trellis, Ashu is helping me
@oak harness Did you get it fixed?

@visual warren That juice shop is an updated version that came out yesterday

I'm trying to log in through SSH in the learn linux room I'm using windows . I'm connected tot the Tryhackme network but I get the notice network timed out I'm using putty toconnect through ssh

bronze vale
#

Could you show me your PUTTy screen please

naive dust
bronze vale
#

No

#

With the login information

naive dust
bronze vale
#

Have you regenerated your configuration file?

naive dust
#

no how do i do that?

bronze vale
#

Go to https://tryhackme.com/access and there should be a button that will regenerate it. Then, redownload the file and open it in openvpn. Make sure you're keeping openvpn open.

naive dust
#

Also are you sure you're connecting to the right Room IP?

#

it should be the ip address at the top of the Learn Linux room

bronze vale
#

Are you able to ping that, smack?

naive dust
#

i'm not at my computer atm

#

no wasn't able to ping it

bronze vale
#

You're probably not connected properly

#

Let me check

#

Yup, it works

#

It's your VPN then.

naive dust
#

it works now

bronze vale
#

Okie

naive dust
#

thanks for the help

nocturne ferry
#

hey; VPN not working

#

have regenerated .etc

#

EU-VIP1, will try others

bronze vale
#

How do you know it isn't working? Any errors?

nocturne ferry
#

no errors; connection gets established but cant ping anything

bronze vale
nocturne ferry
#

yep

bronze vale
#

I'm sorry?

nocturne ferry
#

i see the flag at 10.10.10.10

bronze vale
#

The VPN will not mess with your internet connection

#

Are you using the kali VPN manager?

nocturne ferry
#

yes

bronze vale
#

Don't use the kali vpn manager

#

Use your terminal

nocturne ferry
#

it was working lastnight via vpn manager :/

bronze vale
#

It messes with your connection

nocturne ferry
#

ah okay

#

many thanks 🙂

bronze vale
#

The vpn room tells you how to connect correctly :)

#

!vpn

sharp bisonBOT
nocturne ferry
#

are there any other gui/network manager options for this?

#

terminal easy to close

bronze vale
#

No, unless you're using windows

#

You can background the process but it may cause unintentional issues

#

sudo openvpn /path/to/file &

nocturne ferry
#

cheers

bronze vale
#

Just be aware that you may have to kill the tun0 process when logging off or booting up

nocturne ferry
#

ok

#

thank you

#

ah.. interestingly

#

restarting my vm, made the kali network manager vpn thing work

bronze vale
#

don't use it, it will still cause issues.

nocturne ferry
#

ok

#

if i run openvpn from terminal with & sign on the end, how can i kill the process?

golden crag
#

i never use the & sign, i just run it in seperate terminal. but im guessing you can kill the process with "sudo killall openvpn"

bronze vale
#

sudo pkill openvpn
sudo killall openvpn

That question was google-able ;)

naive dust
#

tbh I use openvpn3

#

Which runs it in the background fine (without &)

#

but it has a little more involvement to get working than openvpn

naive dust
#

How'd I reboot THM VMs

edgy moon
#

@naive dust if i correctly understood your question, by stop-it, and deploy again

ok. I MAY be very dumb and also blind. BUT. When i go to the access page and click "Download My Configuration File" i get redirected to "https://tryhackme.com/404". HELP

#

@deep trellis I think this is a you thing

vapid dawn
#

regenerate your config file and wait for 10s and it should work 🙂

naive dust
#

yea but that changes ip which is inconvient \

restive kindle
#

nah

#

tried

#

a lot

#

like 5 times

nocturne ferry
#

y'all should just make a TryHackMe VPN program that we just log in to and use

#

because we dullites
