@dapper idol The metasploit room is not broken.
@eager fulcrum ah, it appears you are right. for the longest time msfdb init returned "try running as a non root user"
ah, ok so it's the attackbox vm
Should a link like "internal.thm/something/else" resolve to the IP address of the box I'm currently working on? Asking for a me.
working on Room Vulnerversity, and the im trying to get to the website 10.10.66.34:3333 which is a web server for the room using the browser. Site can't be reached. Could my work VPN be blocking it? Not sure how to connect via browser
Were you able to connect to the THM VPN?
yes
Can't help with that one - I connect w/Open VPN.
if i were to pursue my OSCP, maybe it's prudent to buy a new laptop so I can run Kali on there and use as my pen testing machine
how is Kali used w/ OpenVPN?
do you need your own Kali
You get an OpenVPN file from THM, then use it to connect. Yes, you would use it to connect your own physical/virtual machine to the THM network.
I run Kali in a VM on my personal machine. Inside Kali, I connect via OpenVPN to the THM network.
ah ok, gotcha, thanks for that. So if you use OpenVPN you have to have your own version of Kali somewhere
how is using kali as a VM?
Not sure that's 100% true - it might work inside the web Kali machine that you're using supplied by THM, but I suspect that's not the problem.
is it a pain in the ass or do you think having a seperate laptop is just more clean?
We're off topic for this room - I we can pick it up in #general if you want...
Room: Internal. Should a link like "internal.thm/something/else" resolve to the IP address of the box I'm currently working on? Asking for a me.
@minor kite you need to add it to etc hosts
Thanks - did I miss that somewhere (for future reference)?
I believe you're told
I'm sorry XD
Hello guys...I just encountered a error regarding .ovpn file that we use to connect to the tryhackme network and I am not able to ping the machine for further enumeration. I tried regenerating the file but it didn't work : ( . As soon as I open the configuration file it stucks at "Initialization sequence completed" and then I cant connect to the tryhackme machine. Help would be really appreciated : )
!vpnscript
Try this.
Can I ask for help here in order to fix problems with postgresql due to which msfdb is not working on my machine?
@vale haven it’s better putting an issue on metasploit’s GitHub, or googling it. We only deal with site/VPN issues
Only if I hadn't
Hi. Need to build a central syslog Server open-souce (siem). Any sugestion? Graylog? Syslog-ng? Elasticsearch? Kibana? Suricata? Whats the Logic sequence? Thanks!
VPN and other technical questions related to TryHackMe
Heya, I am not sure if this is the right channel for this. If it is wrong, please point me to the correct channel. Starting up a new VM for the initial room (the one where you are to open up firefox) results in 405 Method not allowed. I am not sure if this is correct behavior, as the first task specifies to load up and copy paste a value (flag) from that screen. Is this correct or a bug ?
Using the free vm at this point, so I am not sure if related or not.
I'm very confused at what the issue is?
You're trying to start a TryHackMe VM or you're trying to boot a room VM?
So you're trying to boot the AttackBox and you're getting a 405 error?
Okay, let me try to give a more approperiate description of my confusion 😄 One sec
Okay, I think I found my "issue"... I misunderstood the instructions I guess.
Apologizing.
Hi everyone
I don't know if I'm right room, but I think I would have this badge
I have done both rooms
It's being worked on I think, people who completed the rooms before the badge was announced haven't got it automatically
Understood
does nmapping a specific network several times slow it down or overload it?
Is this related to the site or VPN?
site- i am learning nmap so wanted to ask
site- i am learning nmap so wanted to ask
yeah, i am learning nmap in try hack me ofc... @bronze vale
-_-
how do i get my configuration file to my kali VM?
Have yoh downlaoded it off the website
Download it inside the vm ?
that makes sense
It wont work https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn - Linux stage
pls help?
!vpnscript
Try this.
ill try it
Regenerate your certificate
You need to regenerate. Then redownload.
i did
Just to double check this is the file path right + the file name. right. just checking

!vpnscript
This ones' output.
You may need to email
support@tryhackme.com, detail everything including your THM username. They will instruct you how to proceed :)
@bronze vale
I mailed them but no reply.
I hope I will get my voucher back 😦
DOes anyone know why the hell not a single WIFI connection is found ?
my wifi adapter works fine on windows
Are you on a VM?
VBOX
yeah, that's why
i'm not briding it
you wont get passthru unless its a USB adapter
do you have the required drivers installed?
i mean it worked before
you'll want to run lsusb to see if it's being recognized
im guessing you've tried rebooting?
tens of times
Spooky in help chats 👀 No offense spooks
no SSIDs i tried that
then something on the VM must be broken
thing is i have a different one that's doing the same problem
it works when i replug it
this one sometimes works when i replug it
Sorry
@wind wedge this is related to THM
@supple sonnet
i found the driver
but its not building for some reason
@digital yarrow It was for someone else they deleted their message after I told them to go to general
oh my bad
yo guys can anyone recommend some /cheap/ ethernet passthrough that emits wi-fi signal, too?
Hey guys, I'm having problems with the VM in the "relevant" room. After deploying and waiting for 5 minutes, accessing any service (HTTP, SMB) works for at first but it's extremely slow and after a few seconds the connection breaks down completely. I've already terminated and redeployed machines couple of times, still the problem remains. Also renewed my VPN connection, didn't help either. Do you have any ideas? I can't finish the room like this. Thanks.
!multivpn
Make sure you have setup your VPN connection correctly https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn
Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter
If there's more than one line (that don't start with "grep" or sudo), do the following steps
Type sudo killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter
Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>
@toxic python Indeed, I've had old openvpn processes running. Thanks for the advice, I'll try running the VM again 🙂
np
@eager fulcrum u mean to help ?
Hey , in the room commonlinuxprivesc it ask me to
but when i tried to do this i have an error :
msfvenom: command not found
What can i do ?
I mean that your issue isn't THM related and you need to ask in #general @digital yarrow
@meager trail MSFVenom is a hacking tool
You're not going to have it installed on the target system
ahh tyty ! 😄
@eager fulcrum it is related, i'm trying to get to the wifi room, my adapter is working fine on Windows but not finding any networks on linux
It is not related
It's not site or VPN related. It is you, asking for generic tech support. Which goes in #general.
That doesn't mean you should ask here.
understood
ok
Hello tech support, is there any way I can download the THM VM so I can use it on my machine at home with VMware?
No.
Any idea why I can't upload VM's to the site. Every upload is stuck at 39%, I wated for 12+ hours and then it shows "Conversion Failed". I'm exporting .ova from VMware
@vagrant sphinx hey..can you help me with the THM subs issue..it would be a great help.
@formal gulch whats your issue
I am not able to pay..using my visa/master card..i have tried 2-3 bank accounts ..still not able to pay.. payment is not being accepted..
And @vagrant sphinx is from india too..so i think he may help me a little with this
I am not able to pay..using my visa/master card..i have tried 2-3 bank accounts ..still not able to pay.. payment is not being accepted..
@formal gulch You need international payemnt activated cards I think, also make sure your bank in not declining the charge
Any idea why I can't upload VM's to the site. Every upload is stuck at 39%, I wated for 12+ hours and then it shows "Problem Coverting VM". I'm exporting

@vernal ruin 😕
@formal gulch You need international payemnt activated cards I think, also make sure your bank in not declining the charge
@vernal ruin ok..i will look into that
Why can't I see the new "Networks" tab in my account unless I sign out?
@vernal ruin probably because you didn't follow the AWS conversion requirements
I am doing exactly what I have been doing all this time
I have Image Format as OVA, Operating System as Ubuntu Server 18.04 (This site you just linked doesn't list 18.04 as supported, but it's listed on THM) , File System is MBR with ext4 , and Licensing as Auto as it says for Linux Systems. Then there is more info about creating aws specifc roles and installing aws cli tools and stuff on the VM, and I'm guessing that doesn't apply here. Under Required Configuration that I can control, Vmware Tools are not installed, No CD-ROM Drives, the VM was shut down before exporting, DHCP service is functional. I have no idea what else to check for.
@deep trellis did you mention before that you can check the reasons it failed to convert? Might be useful here
I have Image Format as

@vernal ruin What's the kernel version out of interest?
4.15.0-117-generic
Okay, what's the name of the OVA you're uploading?
The last one I tried with was called sn0wball
When did you last try uploading? Yesterday?
What was the OVA filename called?
I can't find anything for sn0wball. Edit: Nevermind, found it.
I tried yesterday, then today
FirstBootFailure: This import request failed because the instance failed to boot and establish network connectivity
It looks like one of the snowball uploads worked?
2 failed, 1 succeeded.
3 failed
It still shows succesful maybe cause I have not deleted it
I'm trying to do some research on that error and what that means

@vernal ruin Unfortunately, the only information I can give you is this: "This import request failed because the instance failed to boot and establish network connectivity"
All right, thanks for that
is this just me or the connection to the vpn is not stable?
is this just me or the connection to the vpn is not stable?
@fallen fiber Run that VPN script above, it's super stable for me
You are most probably running multiple instances. Just run the script to know for sure or kill the instances
I can't seem to figure out the issue @deep trellis I just need to change permission of one file on the existing vm that's uploaded. Is there any way that can be possible
if you can deploy the box, it can be cloned with the changes made, you'll just need Skidy and or Ashu to be available
yeah ? I just need 20 seconds
ye, just make sure one of them is available to help ^
Since the last two days I get after a bit of time connected to the VPN these two errors in the log:
Authenticate/Decrypt packet error: packet HMAC authentication failed
and
TLS Error: local/remote TLS keys are out of sync: [AF_INET]<IP>:<PORT>
I already regenerated the openvpn config file. Does anyone know what's up?
Authenticate/Decrypt packet error: packet HMAC authentication failed is just a warning it means nothing
If you're having connection issues please run the VPN script, regenerate your VPN configuration file and switch servers.
@supple sonnet your room is broken 😞

OwO
UwU
AwA
Hi, is there anyone around?
I've recently joined thm and I can't launch the vpn therefore access any machine . I get a 404 network when trying to download the configuration file. I am new to this so I don't know. But after reading the rules, one of them states to do some research first. I tried to look for the file on the openvpn website but that was useless; it didn't work. I don't want to break anything on my computer so I think it is wiser to ask what to do.
You didn't break anything -- don't worry.
Try switching VPN servers and attempting to download a new config pack?
hey guys hope yall are having a wonderful sunday, i need an experts help, please ive been working on this for over a year. this is my only hope to learn
idk where to start!
willing to talk to anyone willing to listen i really need help!
?
my problem isnt on discord! im noob at discord tho so please forgive my ignorance
@supple sonnet Will that still work? I mean , there is a reason why they chose openvpn no? it's free and open source and I would assume easy to use? Let's say I try to download another vpn file, will the process be the same?
I'm just reading your message again...VPN or switching VPN server? I would assume one mean downloading the file from a different source.
This seems like a one off issue
if you go here:
https://tryhackme.com/access
change the VPN server from something else that's currently selected:
http://puu.sh/GuJVV/ea42d4dc39.png
ex, I have US-West selected, try AU-Regular, or something like that and re-download your config file.
Ok that worked. Thanks. Can I close the terminal or do I need to leave it open?
Leave it open
OK
i need an analsyis/ network admin/ reverse engineer / digatial forenses help
like i installed an obvious do not install this will fuck ur shit up malwared out hacked new high end video game title and didnt do anything to it for about 6 months, when my laptop was getting to where it could have hurt its hardware and started to look at everything
and its been a nightmare
like ive done resets across multiple devices so many times
like i have the most crazy looking .pcap files
other wifi's in the area have duplicates running in the range of my pc
its fucked
like this has got to be some real deal hardcore pwnage
like im so pwned. my router login page is now gone. i discoverd that it had custom java script loaded into and has 3 wifi ids acossiated with it
Sounds like you need a professional service.
Is there a way to see what rooms i left [not completed?] i see that i have 10 rooms and completed 9 but i do not see any pending room on "My rooms"...
you can filter completed in "My Rooms"
thanks, i tried that but didnt show the room i left :/
Hi just bought access to throwback. I've got two questions 1: how long do there go before I can download the openvpn configuration ? 2: How/where can I get the reciept I cant see under receipts ? Tnx.
To get the vpn for throwback you go to access machine then OpenVPN then you will see a separate tab for Networks and that is the file you use to access throwback not too sure about the second one @rotund rover
@deep trellis
yea it is
I'm trying to download a jpg from an ssh server to my linux download folder but the ssh says it can't find the path to the download folder even though it is the path..
it's part of the agent sudo room
try the ip instead of agentsudo
List the dir the jpg is in maybe
I Can see the throwback room and have access to it but can’t connect because i can’t download the vpn
@steep mortar maybe try sftp is is ftp like interface over ssh
whoever does that, dont reply to them
a little easier than scp
Is anyone able to help me with Throwback task 13? I'm not getting any LLMNR responses after waiting for 30+ mins
@vital spire wait more
@steep mortar maybe try sftp is is ftp like interface over ssh
@vocal wasp k I will try thanks(:
haven't bought throwback yet
@steep mortar sftp username@remote-ip -> cd to file -> get filename -> !ls
Really? Even though the instructions say: "This process should not take more than 10 minutes during normal circumstances. If you are having issues, reset the network, if the issue still persists, ask for help in #743859653343182930"
@vocal wasp worked perfectly! thanks a lot
@steep mortar no problem
any tech-supports here to help with missing openvpn download for networks ?
@naive dust please don’t be rude
We all have lives
We are all busy
And we certainly don’t have time for disrespectful people such as yourself
@vapid dawn could you help @rotund rover with his networks issue please
@naive dust It’s been 5 days that isn’t really long
Because it is...
Only two people manage the email and I imagine they get quite a lot so calling them lazy is pretty disrespectful
Support can be denied.
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you on behalf of the support team @naive dust. The team is very small (2 people who also run the entire site), and as you can imagine, with 186,691 users, they recieve a lot of emails. I know a very large part of them have been away with family/IRL and the other working these last couple of days.
I know Jabba has pinged someone from there who may be able to help - if he manages to get the time I'm sure he'll see it and respond appropriately
@bronze vale the network issue should be fixed now
Awesome thank you ❤️
Hi @vapid dawn if and @bronze vale then I’m afraid I still can’t see the vpn download. And equally important no receipt
I believe you'll need to ask for a receipt
Arh okay by mail ?
Email support@tryhackme.com with your THM site username and what you're looking for.
With the throwbacks issue, they may need to see proof of payment, I'll see if I can get their attention
Sure. Got the welcome mail and everything. Just missing the vpn. Tnx for your help so far
:P
mail sent
? what do you mean missing vpn
i cant download configuration for network/throwback
Can you screenshot?
can you showus?
and you can access the throwback room page just fine?
yup and got the welcome mail
you can try leaving the room and then rejoining with tryhackme.com/jr/throwback
@sharp bear tnx fixed it !!!
np
Thanks Cry
yeah tnx both 🙂
Is there a way to kick someone from my team on THM?
Not currently iirc
Is the "team" feature for paid subscriptions only?
I tried to create a room, said it already existed, tried to join the room, said it didn't exist.

is there a known issue with the VPN?
@exotic vortex what's up?
Machines are working very slow , I have been noticing this for more than 4-5 times in different rooms and ssh response time is around 2 seconds and loading CMS's dashboard like KIBA or Wordpress response take a huge amount of time I am currently using openvpn EU-VIP-1
I am in the West Coast, pining US-West-VIP-1 takes about 150ms
that's roughly 3 times higher than usual
Where are you located?
If you don't mind me asking
mhm remove it
Okay so
The only thing I can do is run you through the checks, but as you are not the only one complaining of the VPN I will ask Skidy if there are any current issues.
First things first is checking your connection but I trust your internet is running at a sufficient level
So I'm going to get you to run the VPN script which will tell you any problems with your connection
!vpnscript
If that wouldn't trouble you of course.
Hey @untold vector sorry to hear that. I expect the Kiba and Wordpress rooms to be a little bit slow initially. Are you a subscriber out of curiosity?
Ah yes, EU-VIP-1 😅 apologies
😄
looks good on my side
@exotic vortex Just going to check with an American friend. Just need to see what server he is on 2 minutes.
The kiba one I appreciate is slow. Even for subscribers the Wordpress ones can take a couple of minutes to fully boot up due to how much is running on them. Do you mind me asking which ones you’ve tried so I can benchmark them please? Will see if we need to resource boost or not
Yeah I am a subscriber and i use EU-VIP-1 ok but out of those boxes ? like intro to x-86/64 ? my r2 debugger keeps breaking down and so slow at debugging
this is very silly question but does my terminal theme bother's it ? because on default terminal too wasn't receiving good response
Mhhhm okies, and your SSH to those that it applies to is near enough instant and reliable? I.e. doesn’t disconnect you after a few minutes?
i tried the basic stuff like switching servers but EU-VIP-2 for me breaks the openvpn connection because of which i have to reboot the whole box
Apologies for all the questions, just trying to pinpoint this one 😁
@bronze vale Thanks 🙂
Na doesn't disconnect except for today but i guess i may have messed up my internet
@bronze vale Thanks 🙂
@exotic vortex I pinged Ashu, when he is available he will fix any issues, if there are any.
no worries. appreciate it!
please no need for apologies
I gotcha. Yeah switching servers means that you'll have to download a VPN connection file which would explain that
i did downloaded and waited 10 seconds after regenerating it
but if you're only getting the performance issues from today (taking a guess here) after you noticed issues it sounds like you might have a multiple connections running
Actually there seems to be a few reports of EU-VIP-1 being a bit slow
Jabba's pinged the right guy for it
I'd try switching to another server and regenning, then running the VPN script as a sanity check in the mean time tbh (:
!vpnscript
thank you actually switching to another USA server gives me around 350+ ms
so i did switch to EU-regular but the results are not fair enough thanks anyways
As soon as Ashu is ready he will be on it!
I would recommend adding a ping test in the script (to measure latency)
I think regenerating might fix that
Lemme see
Have you tried regenerating your config file/ switching servers?
Have you made sure to redownload affter switching?
Oh I see
Apparently this happens now and then, the server breaks
Oh so is there anything i can do?
EU-Regular-2
@deep trellis EU-Regular-2 is broken :/ inline certificate issues
Not sure
Imma try each one then i guess 👀
That's all you can really do until then sorry :(
Its fine no need to be sorry
Thanks for the answers
Just downloaded US-West-Regular-1 and it worked
Awesome!
eu-2 will still need to be fixed but thank you for making the admin team aware
The thank you is on my behalf although, I do not speak for them 😄
@deep trellis EU-Regular-2 is broken :/ inline certificate issues
@bronze vale I just tested regenning, it seems fine to me?
Oh so is there anything i can do?
@atomic yoke Whats your THM username? Let me see if I can investigate.
its 'Bashert'
Skidy multiple people have complained of VPN issues today, I detailed it in #lounge whilst pining Ashu. Just thought I might bring awareness to it
Thank you though, and I apologise if there isn't any issues :p
Its okay, if there are any problems in the future, just ping me:)
Will do :)
its 'Bashert'
@atomic yoke EU-Reg-2 should work now:)
Thank you Skidy!
Oh thanks man! Am used to that ip..... Appreciate it man
Sorry to tell u but its still not working or at least not for me i am afraid
Is that Eu-Reg-2 or 1?
2
@zealous yoke 😭
Probably most likely that there's no certificate in the ovpn file like this
Or if there is it's formatted wrong
I think Skidy is fixing it but I don't know the protocol
Nothing can do on our side of things really it's a server gen problem
Alright thanks :p I'll have to leave it
Having a bitch of a time trying to get Nessus to work on a brand new Ubuntu 16.04 VBox. Anybody know any cool tricks? 😅
I start the service but nothing ever runs on 8834

Hi, I have a questions. I am new to TryhackMe and just getting into cybersecurity. I was doing the linux hacktivity for beginners and when I try to ssh connect my machine, I keep getting a timeout message.
What do I do?
Are you connected to the vpn?
no. I just followed whatever steps it told me to do. If it didnt prompt me to connect, then no.
!vpn
It's good to do the welcome room if you haven't
Okay, I will do that now.
😊
😄
Hello, anyone could help me? I'm a newbie, and I could connect to the welcome room. In the second step I deployed a machine and took the flag. Now I'm trying to repeat the steps to connect at linux room in step 7, but I can't. Browser, returns me "Firefox can't connect".
I need to create a file and run shiba1, to get a pass. But i don't have shiba1 file.
I need to create a file and run shiba1, to get a pass. But i don't have shiba1 file.
@main kite You need to SSH into the machine
Which was detailed in a task in the room
Ok. @eager fulcrum I will look for it. Thanks for your help.
And sorry. My level is 0. Right now-
Working through the tasks in order
tried to ssh into the machine and the password shiba1 isn't being accepted
what am i doing wrong?
from the "my machines" page
That's your attacking machine
Deploy the machine in the Learn Linux room, that's the machine you need to SSH into
When you deploy a machine in a room, typically those are your target machines
ooooooohhhhh okay. Thanks! i'll try again!
"putty fatal error- Network error: connection timed out"
i used the proper machine's IP this time
and I am connected to the VPN
any suggestions?
i tried and it finally worked
I'm having troubles with the upload vulns room
can't connect to the box
tried the vpn script but he gives an error
Is vpn present in Downloads directory?
yes
Script somehow can't find that.
Try giving full directory like /home/user/Downloads/vpn.ovpn.
that was it thank you it worked now
You are running it as sudo so it went to root's home directory.
ahh good to know
My vpn is working fine but I still can't connect to the box in the upload vulns room
Can you ping it?
nope
Can you show me your VPN imitation page please
Basically the terminal where you started your VPN
Make sure you have setup your VPN connection correctly https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn
Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter
If there's more than one line (that don't start with "grep" or sudo), do the following steps
Type sudo killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter
Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>
did this but still problems to connect to the box
I redid all the steps plus set the connection but still have problems connecting to the box
never mind it works al of a sudden
Hi im having a problem with virtualbox. Whenever I login, its a black screen and I been trying to fix this for a while now
oh
You’ll have to email support@tryhackme.com
How long has it been?

have you waited at least 3min
yes
then try re-generating your vpn pack and re-setting the machine
nevermind it all of as sudden works
boxes need time to boot up, because muir made it I'm assuming he has tons of sneaky things going on with the backend that may take longer as well
any tryhackme staff here?
If you specifically need staff, eg for billing issues, then you need to email
Otherwise please ask your question
May i PM you?
I'm not TryHackMe staff. What is your question about? @desert oak
Does tryhackme have a responsible disclosure policy?
I've found a security issue, wanted to know where to report, since i cannot find any such info on the site.
TryHackMe both encourages and rewards responsible security bug discovering and disclosing. Whilst we review every report on a case-by-case basis, we ask fo
Aha, thank you 🙂
is that possible
@naive dust That is piracy. That is illegal. Do not ask for that here.

Hello, i was doing the room Simple CTF and my streak was at 7, when i had to refresh the site it went to 1. I previously answer questions before and no time was showing such as " answer a question in # hours.."
any suggestions of what might have happen, is this common?
It’s a 24 hour timer from the last time you answered a question
I see, it tend to tell me how many hours i have left, since it didn't show anything i assume it did record my answer, o well i guess is not something i can get back.. thanks for the answer
Would you have answered earlier if the site didnt go down?
It can be restored if so
i believe i did answer, is there a way to restore?
Hey @hybrid cedar whats your TryHackMe username? Let me take a look.
oh i see so only the admin can do that,Thanks!. Hi skidy this will be my username: McMow991

he'll let you know when he does it I assume
oh i see, thought maybe had to refresh the site or something , oh ok got, thanks
well, refresh and see if it's updated
oh not yet, still at 1
but, like I said, Skidy will probably let you know when he's updated it for you
so just be a bit patient 🙂
@deep trellis let me know if i need to so something on my end?.
@hybrid cedar I've updated your streak:)
Thanks for the help i can see it went back to 7 again,
i need to find a free vm. anyone have any ideas ?

sorry, do you mean virtual host?
i dont got a thumb drive atm

Vmware workstation player is free

and virtualbox is free too

hello everyone
We don’t do that here
This is site related tech support
Not personal tech support :p
is there a whitehat server?
This is a white hat server
yea but im trying to setup linux on a vm
hi, I am in the getting started lab
i pasted the IP in the browser
just as it is described in the tutorial
but i get an error
that the method is not supported
Screenshot?
Are you connected to the vpn?
Oh you're using the VNC
Hello all
Hi Freeasap do you need help with anything?
you can see that i use the private IP of the machine that is noted on the right?
That's what I'm talking.
Yes but you need to be in a room with the machine deployed for the ip to work
@wind thunder He is just visiting his own IP fro the attackbox
You need to subscribe to get that functionality
Oh right, I didn't notice he was using free attackbox.
@wind wedge How are you ? I will strat "Try Hackme" site ... Learn something... any guide that I can follow ? Thank you
It's best to start with the welcome room to get started 🙂
@wind wedge How are you ? I will strat "Try Hackme" site ... Learn something... any guide that I can follow ? Thank you
@analog trench In future, this goes to #general 🙂
sorrt but this has me really confused. I'm exactly follwoing the getting started guide
sorrt but this has me really confused. I'm exactly follwoing the getting started guide
@wind thunder You can't use the attackbox or in-browser kali machine, that's a paid feature 🙂
this is teh welcone room btw
You can download the openvpn config file to your machine, and connect via that
okay so I need teh VPN no matter what?
!vpn
thanks a lot all
You can only deploy the in-browser once I think without being subbed
Don't use that, if you ask me, just connect the vpn on your local machine
Yea it's only once I was an idiot when I was a free user and terminated it and tried redeploying it
this is over the vpn
Can you visit http://10.10.10.10
yes this works
He's using attackbox ip.
He's using attackbox ip.
@placid mango ah
Use the room ip, the room you are doing.
Okay so that is what I understoo dfrom the guide..
yes this works
@wind thunder Go to a room, deploy a vm, use that ip
Deploy the vm from here, you will get a ip in a while
Navigate to that ip from you local machine, while staying connected to openvpn
Why is my cursor shown like this, driving me completely crazy
like my cursor is this pixelated mess
but guys, that's the url of the attacking machine, the one I have been trying since the beginning..
Can't even see a cursor
but guys, that's the url of the attacking machine, the one I have been trying since the beginning..
@wind thunder Forget about the attackbox, rn you have nothing to do with it
i don't see any other info in the tuorial room
Focus on the room, and the machine you deployed
i don't see any other info in the tuorial room
@wind thunder What is your main OS. Let's start from the beginning
and you connected to openvpn on osx, right ?
Cant show my cursor on screenshots lol
All right, now are you in the https://tryhackme.com/room/welcome room rn ?
it's actually https://tryhackme.com/room/hello
yes
Do you have an IP then ?
No, don't go to attack box man
I'm asking about the machine you deployed on the welcome room
Terminate that attack box, and deploy the machine on the welcome room
Also, you are navigating to your own ip, you can't do that anyway
it though it was something listening on local host
Every room has it own vm, if it has one
So, this is the same replica of the vm that's in the welcome room
and there I have the flag
i now indeed see another IP on top
@wind thunder Yes that
and there I have the flag
@wind thunder Awesome, you got it now ?
thanks for making that clear
No Worries
and being patient 😊
Any idea why shift + ctrl + v and others are not working?
like ctrl + s in nano
giving me uppercase instead
If you're using in-browser, open it in a new tab (full screen) and refresh the tab ^^
Thanks for your help there btw @vernal ruin
still not working
now giving me ^V
also tried restarting the machine
and am in fullscreen
Not quite sure what else to suggest other then checking the guacamole toolbar on the side of the screen @naive dust I'm afraid
Ah okay, it has always worked for me but the toolbar is new for me
I.e. you might have something stuck here or what not (:
no nothing
Ctrl + Shift + C / V works okay for me so failure at that, try a different browser? 😅
Out of curiosity, what browser are you trying?
Firefox, but modified
...and how? Are you using it in a VM for example, in that case you've got three clipboards to be dealing with (:
iirc chrome(imum) is the recommend aye
Sure (: I didn't know if you were say running a Host PC -> Browser on a VM -> THM Attackbox/Kali machine
THM Kali, but I have all privacy settings enabled in Firefox so I think this is what causes the problems. Stupid of me to not think of that in the first place, morning here 😆
Hehe no worries! Hopefully swapping out browser works okay for you
It's often the easy things to oversight that cause it...
permission denied...is there a problem with their machine or am I doing something wrong
please help
It's often the easy things to oversight that cause it...
@zealous yoke Yup, everything is working fine now!
what do i need to increase on my vm so that i can get alittle bit higher cracking speed when using hashcat?
vm and hashcat not a good combo
If you want a decent cracking speed you should install nvidia drivers and use your GPU for cracking (which is not viable on VM iirc)
Would this be the same for using gobuster? because it takes an incredibly long time to find anything
nah
Hashcat runs on a GPU so you're not able to use it inside of your VM you have to install it on your main machine
No gobuster is different
gobuster works fine in VM for me
anyway to increase gobuster speeds?
ohh my bad, didnt know where to ask the question
Ah wicked, glad to hear it - thanks for letting me know @naive dust 👍
Hashcat runs on a GPU so you're not able to use it inside of your VM you have to install it on your main machine
@wind wedge This is very true (not to disagree with you in the slightest) the THM attack machine can run hashcat fine as of recent updates I made to it (:
Just a note for anyone whose a sub and uses it ^
Ah nice
No more having to use --force which is
as I depend on that box ahahaa
granted it's still CPU ofc but
no true/false negative/positives
Hey , who can I dm for streak issue ?
Did you lose your streak during the downtime ?
Yes
@deep trellis
Yes
@rigid zodiac Whats your THM username, let me fix that for you?
It's Xax0af
It's Xax0af
@rigid zodiac Your streak has been reset.
Can the tryhackme team be able to change my username if I request? I made a one when i started out and i can't change it now. Is it possible?
Email support@tryhackme.com with your current username and what you want it changed to please
Oh thanks 😊
They will be in contact when they can 😄
You can't do that I think, maybe add the credits or whatever in the room content or at a task at the end
Yes you can
Wait what
Don’t know. I just know someone added me to their room
I think it's only two people ATM
Through the room settings
there's an access tab
yes
you send the link to someone you want to collab with you
Yes

anyone experiencing slowness? I wanted to try something for alfred but connecting is super slow and timed out
!vpnscript
no looding
Is it connecting to the machines?
Do you have any web browser extensions?
nop
It's fine for me, are you sure it's not your internet ?
OpenVPN script just says Happy Hacking 🙂 its still slow/timing out fyi, I don't need to do it now so I can try later
VPN connectivity appears fine but encountering slowness making connectivity to systems impossible
Hello, got an issue with my account. How can I contact support ? 😮
email support@tryhackme.com
One is kali, the other is not
Introduction TryHackMe offers subscribers a virtual machine which can be accessed directly in your browser. It is also connected to the wider internet, so
email support@tryhackme.com
@eager fulcrum Thanks
This machine is built to be as responsive as possible, containing all the necessary tools from Kali, but also other tools that you wouldn't find installed on Kali otherwise, including:
More than just extra tools
Tried resending?
how much time does it take to evaluate the room
Please remember the testers are volunteers. Testing is normally quite fast but it will take longer for your room to be scheduled and released.
A thread?
forum thread
@urban moth Please don't post the room code if it's not approved.
You have to be selected.
I believe they're not looking for volunteers atm
ohh
Hello. I have problems connecting to the deployed machines. Sometimes I'm able to connect to the machines but like 5 seconds later I'm not able to connect. 5 seconds later I'm able to connect and so on...
!vpnscript
What's the discord token for?
!docs verify
wat
You need to give a lot more context
FYI, the problem I'm having is similar to SH4DOWS_ above, I can connect to the deployed system but slowly, and then not at all
@eager fulcrum thankyou. The script worked. It seemed I had multiple connections open

@upbeat bloom Only connected from one machine?
Not got a phone, laptop, other VM, host OS etc connected at the same time?
I have just created a room
and even after i delete the question
it comesback again after relaod
Is there a task in the room?
Did you save it?
Why does it need to be a DM?
No
When you delete the question, is there still a question in that task?
@eager fulcrum well it is a VM i'm connecting, my internet is pretty primo, I'm only having issues connecting to VMs within VPN
okay, so im really new, and ive encountered this problem multiple times: when i typed in some kind of command, it switches to a > instead of "name@host" at the start of the line, and i am unable to enter any commands.... is there a solution to fix this?
you have to show more, but most likely you opened a quote without closing it or something
You opened the Quotes
any way to close it?
just put "
ahh
thank you
okay, so im currently doing the linux tasks, and ive had trouble finding flag5 for a while, so i decided to watch a walktrough on how to find that flag, but on the walktrough he uses "find -iname "flag5.txt", but that gives no response for me

@cedar loom Which room is it? It's better if you put this in room-help, I guess.
oh, yeah, thought it was more command related than room related tbh
That's not what this channel is for
ow, oops, sorry, will put other questions in the dedicated channels from now on!
hi guys, not sure if this would be the right place to ask but i'm having some trouble with redare, i get the following Warning: r_bin_file_hash: file exceeds bin.hashlimit.....im working through the 25days of advent challenge day 21 and as i progress through i get all sorts of errors thown and then it aborts...im assuming its to do with this inital warning and i need to increase the bin.hash limit - done a duckduck search for the warning and can't seem to find posts relating to this specific error (some references but no solutions) any nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated as i feel im going round in circles 😄
thank you for replying i will know for next time 🙂 as you are responding here are the last 2 errors i received 0x00400a30]> dc
child stopped with signal 28
can't handle signals
[0x00000000]> dc
can't handle signals
Fatal error: glibc detected an invalid stdio handle

I redirected you to a different channel.
Hi, does anyone know how to downgrade metasploitable from version 6 to version 5 on a macOS?
Get a Kali VM
@toxic python I was considering it but I have the most basic Mac book pro with only 125 gig ssd. Kali has loads of bloatware installed as well
ah, dang, thats a bummer
well you can remove metasploit completely then install msf5 from the github release
