Thank you very much π
Once we've completed a learning path, do we have to leave it to start another one?
Yes
@bronze vale Bless you!
Jabba can you type something up again please?
I can
As of September 24th 2020, Metasploit 6 is not working. We are advising everyone using MSF6 to downgrade to MSF5.
To save you some time, this is the link to the latest version of Metasploit 5: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/releases/tag/5.0.101
@eager fulcrum
@bronze vale @toxic python β€οΈ
Yes, thank you. :)
Hey guys im trying to learn Python code so does anyone know a course or a place that teaches me
I only know Print("")
lol
Iβm debating writing the process of manually downgrading & building to msf5 on the help site tomorrow
@bronze vale Do you have any idea how do I install this version to my macOS?
No sorry, I use Linux. If you canβt find how to Iβd highly recommend setting up a VM if you can :)
Thanks my friend π
MacOS is somewhat similar to Linux I imagine the process is pretty similar
MacOS is somewhat similar to Linux I imagine the process is pretty similar
@toxic python Yes it is actually.
No sorry, I use Linux. If you canβt find how to Iβd highly recommend setting up a VM if you can :)
@bronze vale How would you install it if it were in a Linux system? π
Thanks Blob, I really need to sleep lmao
Add stuff to path if necessary
Haha, thank you π
After you finish that feel free to deposit check into blob bank account too
Sure thing let me have your account information π
With submitting writeups, does tryhackme or the owner of the room accept them?
Because I may or may not of placed the wrong link to the writeup i summitted and I want to know who I need to talk to to fix it.
I think room owner accepts writeup.
I finished 2 tasks from REmux The Tmux yesterday, and today when I came back to continue...it asked me to join the room again and all the task from yesterday are gone!
Hey guys
Tryhack me website boxes is very slow to me
I'm not sure what to do and if it's from my side or the website
the boxes are really incredibly slow , anyone experiencing issues too?
@proud bridge ur net connection
could it be because im on free version
?
ms to try hack me is 150 ms
could that be the reason?
VIP could be worth it or not really ?
in hack the box , free sub is really slow but VIP is much better and stable
also 150ms
could it be because im on free version
@proud bridge i don't think so
it's better the admins answer this to u
and THM subscription is exactly worth it
having the same issue here with some boxes
1000mbps fibre connection so not an issue myside
have rebooted this box like 10 times now, each time i run radare its crashing
wish i could download the files and run locally to answer the questions
I mean you probably could but if the room is crashing, it's to do with your connection or computer.
guys l have a problem on my netcat
when i do reverse shell.php and nc -lvnp i cannot connect
your missing a port number
VPN and other technical questions related to TryHackMe
cause this channel is for thm tech support only
We don't do personal troubleshooting
its a community i would ask something l couldnt figure out after googling it
Guys, a small question. Being logged in my Kali machine using RDP, how could i transfer a file (.jpg for example) from my Host to the RDP machine ?
VPN and other technical questions related to TryHackMe
Wassup
Chat is being misused
why cant l ask this in here????????
@wide arch Because it says on the channel description that this is related to TryHackMe (the platform).
Your question appears to be used for a room, you may ask in #general
its a community i would ask something l couldnt figure out after googling it
@wide arch You can, this is the wrong place to do it though π
If your question:
- Does not relate to a tryhackme room
- Does not relate to a TryHackMe technical issue
ask in #general π
thx for your clear explonation
It tells you
We will tell you exactly what the error says π
LoL but i dont understand why is it unsuccessful again and again. It has more than enough balance
Only the admins can access back-end information.
Ah okay i am mailing now. Hope this gets resolved soon.
mhm
how do i delete my tryhackme account
But why? 
I think you have to email support@tryhackme.com
ok cool
@toxic python You're too slow π
Guys i was trying to use
It's running inside internal network.
How i can run it outside my network?

VPN and other technical questions related to TryHackMe
@vernal ruin I'm not allowed to ask?
- Wrong Channel, 2. Your intentions for using a keylogger can't be determined, so I don't think anyone will help you here
@vernal ruin Oh i am working for my collage project. We are trying to stimulate attacks that can happen from Browser Extension.
I can send the documentation if you need proof
My connection to the THM network through VPN appears to be incredibly slow
Where is the east US connection located?
Probably Virginia or Ohio if itβs the standard aws AZs
I live in north-eastern canada, is there any way to make my connection faster? I can ping boxes, but loading the webservers takes forever and then only basic HTLM appears
are you a subscriber
its also most likely not cause if the VPN server locations. I'm in the US and use a EU server
Hey! Is there a stability issue with relevant? I keep getting system freezes and it's really draining π e.g. I manage to get a reverse connection, but when I try and escalate my user privs via an .exe it always falls over.
Not that I know of
Not of that I know
@grave leaf this might interest you
Shouldn't be anything wrong with the machine. I'm not sure what .exe you're attempting to use to escalate.
Hi guys. Can I ask a kali linux related question? Is it relevant?
I was trying to setup kali linux to my windows pc but it failed and now i cant boot my windows
What should I do?
why did my terminal stop taking commands in linux
?
it just echos everything i type
help!
Is there anything going on with US East servers ? I keep losing connection
I should caveat that I am using the THM attack box. If I generate an x64 shell (not meterpreter) and upload it and execute it freezes. If I try and upload a well known priv esc that's related to the privileges (don't want to give the game away) it fails to execute, then freezes. I have even tried mimicking the walk through (I hated having to do this) and I had the same issue.
I mean, the more specific you can be the better. If we need to have comments deleted once we are done we can do that.
You can delete your own messages, and/or mark as a spoiler as appropriate
When I try to open my attack machine it says authentication failure. I'm running into lots of issues. Can anyone help?
I can!
If you are using the TryHackMe VMs and you are recieving an "Authentication Failure" error, please follow these steps:
- Terminate the attack box
- Load one of the Kali VMs and terminate it once it has loaded,
- Boot the attack box up again :)
Iβm presuming youβre subscribed
If it doesnβt work ping me please :)
will do!
If it doesnβt work ping me please :)
I had to do those steps for the first time today
Is it possible to transfer a file from my kali vm to my host ? I m using RDP
Hey i haven't got a reply back from tryhackme support for changing of username. It was sent like 2 days ago. support@tryhackme.com is the right email?
Yes that's the right email
Give them some time there, support email is handled by only two people
Oh OK
give them time to respond there only two people manning the mail
got no response π¦
@heavy saffron Imagine the amount of work they have...
oke so i just installed parrot os and its msfconle was already in msf6
any idea how to downgrade
Aye Parrot Security comes with MSF6 currently
Kali didnt pick it up as it's broken, Parrot did.. for some reason
@craggy sable Check the Chat pins theres a link to the GitHub page for msf5
what happened to my streak? i was with 23 of streak and for no reason i got 0. There is some mod that can help me pls?
The way that streaks work are they are 24 hours from the last time you answered a question
Each time you answer a question, the timer will reset to 24 hours
i have been doing rooms all days without missing one thats the thing :/
and i just finished one now and i have 0 streak so i thought it was weird :/
It's highly unlikely but the only advise I can offer is for you to email support@tryhackme with you issue, including your site username and the number you last remember it being on.
ok i will, thx anyways. hope it can be fixed.
Hey all im having real issues with rooms which have RCE tasks, I couldnt do the OWASP Top Ten day 8, and currently doing Vulniversity task 4 I have a feeling there's something weird with my IP, my VM Ifconfig and OpenVPN report it as 10.8.0.7 but if I browse to 10.10.10.10 (as instructed by the vulniversity room) I get 10.0.0.20 I have tried both IP's in the PHTML script and netcat isnt seeing the connection also, tried changing the ports. anyone any ideas
That it quite a strange tun0 ip
Have you tried switching server to get a different tun0 ip
yeah I thought it looked weird
I doubt it will be your tun0 IP but to rule it out
not yet only tried reconnecting, I`ll give a different region a go
Let me ask the staff two seconds
k
Are you using virtualbox with the networking card set as NAT? @tight patio
iiirc 10.8 is a default virtualbox address
no using cloudstack/vmware 6.5 (on my employers virtualisation platform)
Yeah nvm I'm being stupid - sorry ahaa
Just to interject, are you connected to your HTB vpn?
yeas I am
just tried connecting to a different region
if I disconnected I wont be able t complete the room as I cant et to the vulnerable webserver
Are you trying to complete HTB or THM rooms?
THM
I'm sure HTB won't miss you if you disconnect from their VPN π
yep, checked both the vm config and openvpn
And you have a listener setup, correct?
yep, and when I fire the script the listner just sits there and never connects
tried a few times just to be sure im not being an idiot
does THM have 2fa support for your user account?
Soon.
@zealous yoke 10.0.2.15 for vbox
eu region 2 has given me 10.9.161.18
yeah???
yeah the reverse shell still doesnt work though π¦
hey guys
i connected to the openvpn
the welcome server worked
but the rest i cant connect to
Did you deploy the machine?
That room walks you through exactly what you need to do
If you read the tasks itβll tell you exactly how to scan it and connect, etc
π
Ive been having trouble SSH into the Learn Linux server, I just needed a quick refresher course sense I hadn't used it in a long time, I've been able to log into it once from my home network, but I'm on the road using mobile hotspot to pass the time before my flight I'm using openvpn I've varafied I'm connected to the network, I can ping the deployed system but whenever I try to ssh in it times out and connection is closed by the server machine any thoughts?
@jovial river nmap -sV -p 22 <ip> come up with anything?
Unrelated: About 1 in 5 times I go to deploy a tryhackme attack box and get invalid credentials on the web access. Terminating and redeploying seems to fix it. Known issue?
it says host is up port 22/tcp open with service ssh
Okay i'm getting frustrated. I'm doing the box Relevant and every 1/2 minutes all the ports go filtered and cant connect to the box. I restarted the VPN + the box a couple times. Anyone has any idea? Did not even scan anything last time, only to check if connection just broke again. They told me to ask it here. It keeps happening. Just took a small break and still.
That helped thx
Refresh the page
You would see this if after opening the machine in Another windows, the my machine page gets loaded again, most probably
nothing happens on refresh
close the tab and reopen the machine on full screen mode with this button
that worked for me, atleast
I did this only.. and when i tried nmap on that.. this "glitch" thing happened again.
how to connect to in browser Kali Linux machine using rdp ?
I am not able to connect using the given credentials.
yes ssh is working.
normal browser access is also working in full screen but I am not able to use keyboard shortcuts so I want to connect using VNC or rdp
I am using remmina client
Anyone else had this issue lads?
In all the tutorials I found the guys running the command were in fact root
if that's the attackbox, you don't need to touch msfdb @carmine void
..
Hi i'm scanning a machine with my computer but I almost have 2 hours waiting nmap using verbose is saying that is increasing send Delay, why this happen and there is a solution?
What room are you working on?
I'm on Easy Peasy
Couple things. Are you certain your VPN is connected? Can you check that please? Can you please ensure the Easy Peasy machine is started as well?
!vpnscript
Couple things. Are you certain your VPN is connected? Can you check that please? Can you please ensure the Easy Peasy machine is started as well?
@grave leaf
Ok, I checked and I'm on US-Regular-1.
And yes the page is giving me the machine ip address, and I can ping it my latency is around 130
Can you try the script Ninja shared above?
Of course
Can you try the script Ninja shared above?
@grave leaf well this is what I got
Can you regenerate your config in a different region and see if that helps?
Can you regenerate your config in a different region and see if that helps?
@toxic python
Thank you that worked for a while but now I got 5 messages saying increasing delay but at least the scan is almost 90%
Can you show the command youβre running?
Can you show the command youβre running?
@toxic python
I'm using nmap -p- vmIP
Perhaps consider using a different tool to enumerate which ports are open (like Rustscan or threader3000) and then feed those open ports into nmap
nmap is horrificly slow
oo thanks I will check on that tools
@carmine void I also have the same issue
I heard its only 2 people handling mails so it'll take some time. They'll get back to you as soon as they see your mail.
how can I extend my access to throwback? I started a new job literally the week after I bought it after being laidoff from my old job.. now I only have a day left of access and I am upto speed enough where I can continue my pentesting hobbies :)
hey! what to do after completing the path, should I leave the path?
you can leave the path
thanks π
why can't i deploy this ?
it says you have more then two boxes open
where can i see the opened boxes
Go to my rooms and click on the room you last did and terminate the machine
Do you remember which room you did last
Check the rooms and see which one has a deployed machine
add-on's "Dark reader" + "Firefox color"
hey guys can anyone help me with subscription here?
Ask your question. You may have to email support instead.
Does it take long after the payment is validated to be able to use subscription?
It's almost instant for me
really? I've been waiting for quite some time, that and my email verification still nothing for a couple of days. I'll contact support. Thanks guys
I'm in Upload Vulnearabilities room and i cant acces this
overwrite.uploadvulns.thm
oh i ve an idea
hi, im trying to do that eternal blue exploit and i know i need to downgrade to msf5. how do i do that
Check the pins
got it
thx
so I unzipped the framework and put it in opt and now when doing msfdb init i get ```

Would you be able to ask in #general this is specifically for site related tech-support π
yeah
guys i have a problem
can u please help me
ive been doing the gaming server box on tryhackme. i use a virtual box running kali on a windows 10. i run the openvpn profile on my windows. so im able to access my machine through the kali box. but if i run my openvpn on my kali box the vpn says its connected but im not able to ssh into the tryhackme machine or sometimes upload files and sometimes im not able to get a reverse shell.
can you guys tell me why this is happening?
am i doing something wrong
If the VPN is running in the VM, the host cannot connect over it
But the VPN needs to be running in the VM for reverse shells etc to work.
Do everything from the VM
yeah im running the vpn from the VM and im not able to ssh into the target machine today
while im able to ssh if im connected via the host machine
SSH from where?
from my kali box to the gamingserver target machine
Whatever you're doing, run the VPN in the VM. You're attacking from the VM so use the VM.
Take the time to reboot everything
Take the time to reboot everything
okay thanks
who can i DM for badge issue it been a month now i was given the overpass badge
If you completed the rooms before the badge was created, you will not get the badge.
You will need to ask Skidy
ok thanks @eager fulcrum let me a DM to skidy
hello, any ideea why i cannot open the website from the deployed machine in the kali linux browser machine? i have try close both and open again several times but same thing
What machine?
so i'm trying to open 10.10.145.27 thru kali machin in browser
What machine?
What machine did you deploy?
Kali Linux
How long have you given it to start up?
And what happens when you try to access it?
until i saw the ip
Give VMs up to 5 minutes to start.
ok, i will try now, thanks
this afternoon I tried to connect to the server but openvpn was not working there I deleted it and went to download it again on the site, but when I'm trying to download this giving this error:
http://prntscr.com/uoj4kl
The error is happening when I press to download openvpn in the "Download My configuration file", then it gives the error "404".
can solve, thank you
So my terminals keep freezing for minutes at a time when im in the deployable machine on the privesc room...
There's about 5 privesc rooms, would you like to be a little more specific?
Perhaps a room code or link or full title?
!vpnscript
thx
can anyone help me learn java script a little bit easier??
ok thank you, I actually just noticed.
Question, I realized my location was set incorrectly in my profile. Is there anyway to get my streak back, because it's still only 9pm on saturday my time and no sunday yet.
Streaks don't use your local time
Then how are days decided?
UTC/GMT
That seems like a pretty big oversight in my opinion to do that.
Not really
Considering each 24hour span is the same
No matter where you are, 24 hours are 24 hours
But the way streaks work are totally independent of timezones
That's true, and normally do my stuff on here between normal work hours, but because I was busy, I'm now doing it at night, and as such lost a streak. When it's still the same day for me
Picture a timer
The timer has 24 hours on it
When you answer a question, the timer is reset to 24 hours
if it hits 0, you lose your streak
Timezone independent
Well of course with that logic it works. But that would require me to attempt to either do my streak the same time everyday or pay attention to a completely different time zone.
Nope.
So you're telling me that the fact it's a four hour difference should make no difference? What if I it was a 7 hour difference?
Just pay attention to the timer on the dashboard, or answer a question right before you go to bed
Yeah, it still makes no difference
I'm just saying it should be synced to the local timezone
It doesn't need to be
At all
because there's no relation to local time
because it doesn't care about days
... it is right before my bed and apparently I missed it, even though I have 3 hours left in the day
I don't think you understand my arguement here
I do. Your argument isn't valid because it doesn't relate to how streaks work.
There is nothing tied to any physical time
Aside fromt he 24 hour timer model.
There's a suggestion form on the site. Ask for it to be tied to local time.
Where is this countdown you speak of
Hover over the fire
I believe it might only show when you have a streak of at least 1 though.
That's interesting, It says I have one day streak now, no countdown timer, nor have I ever seen that before (second account on here btw so I'm not brand new haha).
Is this the right place to ask a question about room development?
If it's tech support related like upload issues or editor issues
Ok, I just want to know how to get a picture to appear (not the icon) at the top of my room. I see that others have them but I don't see where to configure it.
It's in Design
Ya, its not. At least for me. I only have a room icon upload.
The room icon upload only changes the room Icon. I want to change the banner picture
Oh, one of the admins has to do that for now
@barren birch Do you have banner access btw?
Nope, unfortunately not
RIP ok
OK well at least I know now I can;t do it without help. Do you know who I can ask?
ok, thanks
Is there anyway to resolve VPN network conflict?
I am in a subnet of 10.10.0.0/16. Routing 10.10.. to 10.9.0.1 just make network unavailable.
You need to route 10.10.x.x over the VPN to interact with THM rooms
This has been happening every single time I try to start a machine. https://i.imgur.com/Mu2tomq.png
Like I just signed up today and this hasn't worked
i even subbed
no, it's kali
oh there it goes now 
it wasn't working earlier or just now but now it decides to work
oh well
thanks
Haha
what is the content of the learning paths?
subscribed members rooms + tutorials and videos or what?
tnx
Rooms
just?
Yeah, collection of rooms for each category
You also get access to videos with a sub , that's not specifically a part of learning path tho
When you enroll in a path (say offensive pentesting) , you see something like this
There are rooms is each section for you to follow
There are rooms is each section for you to follow
@vernal ruin what about that "hours"?
i thought those are about videos contents
Expected Time to Complete @lofty hornet
Videos are over here
There are not much of them atm tho
You have four learning paths Beginner, offensive pentest, web and primer
Like quantum said they're pretty much just rooms but they help you by taking you through the basics and helping you advance through harder rooms

@terse hollow Check the pins
@deep trellis I think something broke there?
@naive dust Can I change it back to the original layout? This is really annoying for me when using an ultrawide screen.
I don't know
Suddenly tryhackme is displayed like this
@naive dust There is a minimise button , click that and it'll go back to the old layout
This has been happening every single time I try to start a machine. https://i.imgur.com/Mu2tomq.png
@olive kernel CC:// @vapid dawn This error seems to still be occuring
Suddenly tryhackme is displayed like this
@naive dust Can I ask what size screen are you have, and what browser are you using?
@deep trellis I tried that and although it removed the split screen function the room is still not shown as a ''list''
I use 34inch 3440x1440
@olive kernel if you terminate and redeploy it should work
i did, but it wasn't working earlier that day.
@deep trellis I tried that and although it removed the split screen function the room is still not shown as a ''list''
@naive dust Do you mean the task layout - If so, we've updated tasks to be shown in 1 at a time, not in many dropdowns?
@deep trellis Yes that I what I mean, I managed to disable split-screen but can't find an option to use dropdowns
Unfortunately, there isn't an option to change back to the old task design. You click choose tasks by clicking the task title at the top of the task card.
Also what browser (and version) are you using? I'm struggling to replicate the room split screen view you had.
Okay, well, I guess I'll get used to it then. It's just that it is less intuitive for me if I want to go back a few tasks to read something again. I use Chromium, out of a sudden the windows were setup like in my second picture.
If you dislike the task designs, mind leaving it as feedback (https://tryhackme.com/feedback). We're testing this new task design for a week before evaluating if its permanent or if we'll include an option to choose between them.
If you don't mind, what version of Chromium?
Chromium 85.0.4183.121 snap
Strange, I've just tested on that version and I'm not having the same issue.
Its strange how TryHackMe is split in the middle, and the browser-based Kali machine surrounds it.
Maybe it had to do with an machine expiring. I normally dont have any problems with chromium. I guess I will provide some feedback on the task design, it might be better for people on smaller screens.
And yes, I also got that one time, with the machine surrounding the task.
Only one time? So the other times its ok?
Too be honest I havent tried. As I said I didnt enable splitscreen myself (and don't know how to), it just popped up out of nowhere and suddenly my task design was changed too. I always have one windows with the VM, one with tasks, and one with a browsers open on another screen so there is no need for me to use splitscreen.
Okay - if you've managed to minimise the split screen, you shouldn't have any more issues.
Everything is working now indeed :-). Thanks for the support!
πββ¬
Hi there!
I am new to tryhackme.com. I am connected to the vpn server, but when I go to to Virtual IP Address it said: unable to connect.
Can someone help me please?
Kali linux and firefox
Where did you get the address from, and what are you trying to do right now?
James I believe they're looking at the access page, which sometimes doesn't show as connected
Yes!
You're not meant to type that IP address into your browser
Oh wait I see what I do wrongπ€¦πΌββοΈ
You need to deploy the machine in the welcome room, and use that 10.10.x.x IP address
I see now! Sorryπ
Hey, I need to change my account and the bot said this
You are now verified, you cannot unlink or relink any of your accounts for security reasons. Please contact the TryHackMe Admins or Mods if you need to change one of your accounts.
Got no idea what to do, so messaged here
so how do I change my account?
It said if I needed to change my account, I need to speak with the mods
you want to change to a different discord account and associate it with the same THM account?
And also, why?
Nope, different THM account and same discord account
Well its stupid, but I didn't realize that there's a 3 in my name on the THM accountπ
Oh, you can request a username change
I read a faq which said that we can't change usernames, hence all this
You need to email support to change your THM username
You cannot change it. But you can request for it to be changed.
Ohk will do that, Thanks
Still haven't got any email from team for change of username. Will take time
yes. There are 2 people dealing with all of the requests.
@deep trellis The screen problem happens with me also..
When i try to copy something bigger to clipboard...
@deep trellis The screen problem happens with me also..
When i try to copy something bigger to clipboard...
@quartz quail Is this two issues, or the split screen expands across the entire page when you try to copy something?
Yeah, I lost my work many time it becomes unresponsive..
and i can't copy big text files (Mostly Shells)
I have single monitor..
Would you mind explaining a little more? So, the split screen works great when the machine is first deployed, but the split screen only increases (and messes up) when you try and copy something (another screenshot would be great)?
yes. There are 2 people dealing with all of the requests.
@eager fulcrum Hey, a quick question, I don't mind how much time it takes but will my username be changed eventually if I write to the support?
Probably?
What I meant to ask is that do they reject these requests?
Hmm
Like the split screen is like a mess right now it's totally unresponsive for me (White screen mostly) And when i try to copy something big from my host pc to my browser based VM it becomes unresponsive(The browser Based Machine) and a lot of time i lost my data..
And i also get a lot of troble in copy pasting from my host pc to browser based vm
The copy/paste issues with the attackbox is being fixed - I'm interested as to why the split screen isn't splitting correctly.
The text dosen't get replaced with the keyboard shortcuts. I need to use the mouse many times..
Just to be 100% clear here - ignoring the copy/paste bug. Is this what happens:
-
At first, when you deploy the AttackBox, the rooms screen splits ok. Its 50% the room and 50% the attackbox.
-
When you interact with the AttackBox, that's when the room split screen view changes
Yeah white screen plus room is what i get..
Browser Based VM have a lots and lots of trouble. βΉ
Sometimes they are also very slow..
And sometimes i get keyboard and mouse problems.
Ah I see what you mean. Right ok - Is the AttackBox still running?
(Can you access it on another tab; I see you have it open?)
Yeah sure
having issue with some of the machines we've created I seem unable to ping them, yet when I deploy one of the existing rooms I'm able to connect... any pointers?
Which room you deploying?
something for a class
I deployed the nessus room and was able to connect with no problem
Oh that is an old room that got put private
ahh
is that a windows machine by any chance?
yeah metsploitable 2k8
Yea some window machines don't respond to pings as ICMP block them
That's not a public room so please bear in mind we might not be able to help much
!vpnscript
sure thing I've moved them to public so...
sure thing I've moved them to public so...
@bleak zephyr It has to be released to be public.
yeah its under review
It's not showing up in the queue
Looking for help downgrading from msf6 to msf5, downloaded msf5, unzipped, moved to usr/share, can't find any clues in folder on how to install or help online
it's out of scope of tech support? there's a pin for MSF5 in this chat, was sent here by @wind wedge
will ask again in general tho
yes. It's out of scope for directly tryhackme related tech support.
heard
I didn't send you here I said to check pins to downgrade as msf6 is unstable
is there a method to get vip via btc?
Am I able to get someone removed from my team here?
tryhackme down
yup it's down
The VPN servers are independent of the website.
Anyone getting the "New connection has been rejected with reason: Authentication failure" message when using the browser-based attacking machine?
yeah lol i cant use the vpn properly
Anyone getting the "New connection has been rejected with reason: Authentication failure" message when using the browser-based attacking machine?
@rigid beacon Check the pins.
like even pings wont go through after i try visit the site
Not all machines respond to pings. Not all machines run a webserver.
@eager fulcrum Thanks π
!vpnscript
thanks i think it fixxed
has THM gone down?
ye
jesus, I was on a roll, hope my room saved my completed questions π
good luck bro
yeah, all good
need some help
Hi, can we help?
hey uh, is anyone having trouble connecting to boxes over VPN
yup
did that, says i'm connected, portal says i'm connected, console output says init complete w/o errors
but for some reason i cannot ping any boxes
if i switch to my hackthebox config and try to ping one of their boxes, works fine
if i go back to thm (tried switching vpn servers + regenerating cert) i can't do anything
i get these
From 10.10.0.5 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From 10.10.0.5 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 10.10.0.5 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
Which boxes are you trying to ping
Can you interact with the ports? Not all boxes are pingable
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>
nope
double checked beforehand
i have it running in tmux in the background so nothing hidden
Is that the THM vpn or htb? π
Can you get to 10.10.10.10?
Neither of those are on the THM network
Iβm trying to see if you can get to anything on the thm network
Which you canβt
Can you switch vpn servers and regenerate ovpn config?
Iβm sleeping so if that didnβt work them ask the birthday boy james
If heβs still up
tried rebooting twice
it's a digitalocean ubuntu instance if that matters
heres my full log
post reboot
yeah i'm baffled too lol
Did you switch servers and regenerate?
yes
alright so i just tried to restart and log in again and i still can't connect to 10.10.10.10
Go onto the webpage, is your tun0 IP there?
i have no idea what's wrong, dashboard still shows me as connected
yes
i have a 10.6.26.*
Type nmap 10.10.49.180 and screenshot the output please
Try again, if the output is the same, try pinging it
I'm going to let the moderators know of your issue, I doubt it's an issue with the site as I'm able to ping the machines etc. but I'll see if they can shed some light. Before I leave please make sure you aren't connected to the VPN anywhere else and you are only connected to the THM VPN.
yeah i double checked that yesterday and today
did you try -Pn?
ah
host unreachable
try it anyway
it might legit be blocking pings π€·
lol nah
the server is just named ipad because it's what i use when i'm on my ipad
this is the openvpn box that says "Now verify that you're connected by deploying a machine and accessing its website. Deploy the machine on this task (it will take a few minutes to boot). Go to http://10.10.51.154 - can you see a website?"
filtered ports means a firewall is blocking it
Iptables -S?
i tried searching forums for similar issues but it seems like nobody has been able to get on the vpn and also fail to connect to anything lol
@deep trellis Can you help @neon igloo ? They are having major connection problems and we can't diagnose π
Heyyyyy I wanted to do ittttt
Guys how to terminate Deployed machines? (Is there a particular page to view them?)
Check the pins @quartz quail
Heyyyyy I wanted to do ittttt
no pinging skidy for u
pins?

If you are using the TryHackMe VMs and you are recieving an "Authentication Failure" error, please follow these steps:
- Terminate the attack box
- Load one of the Kali VMs and terminate it once it has loaded,
- Boot the attack box up again :)
@bronze vale @quartz quail
@hollow otter I can't deploy the room...
this is my /etc/hosts btw idk if it really matters
wrong pin message
@toxic python @quartz quail https://discordapp.com/channels/521382216299839518/554713196804440101/734544650123083887
it's a digitalocean ubuntu instance if that matters
@neon igloo I wonder if D.O have something reserved for that range?
Is it hosted within NYC1?
Because they have reserved 10.10.0.0/16 there for their own internal networking
Oof
older rooms are slower then newer ? (thanx)
this is what i see after i start the ovpn file.
i will, thanks mkay
I think it works. Do i have to regenerate a new config every week or so?
No
No
only 1 time?
Sometimes they just break for absolutely no reason
If itβs not working delete it and regenerate. If that doesnβt work ask here
But it usually shouldnβt break
ohh, okay. Thanks for helping, stay away from drugs mkay.
I am trying to deploy an attack machine but it doesn't look like it is starting. it is giving a message (failed to connect to server) but the counter is running.. I don't see the attacking machine IP anywhere. (I am connected using the VPN)
You donβt need to connect to the VPN for the AttackBox*
Youβve tried terminating and redeploying correct?
If you could provide a screenshot of the error that would be great
Yes - I have tried terminating and starting again. I want to use my own Kali machine - this is why i am using the VPN
I am having a problem with the attack box
Can you screenshot the error
That usually happens to me sometimes every time I try to boot it up usually you just terminate it shouldn't take more than 2 tries
If not you'll probably have to use the kali Linux one
I have tried rebooting the attack machine multiple times - it doesn't change anything
Might be an adblocker or firewall not sure
@deep trellis Is there a client-side fix for this "Failed to connect to server" issue or is it server side?
I have tried rebooting the attack machine multiple times - it doesn't change anything
@barren pecan Can you DM me the link when you make it full screen? This way I can investigate what the issue is.
Thank you β€οΈ
@deep trellis oh man, dammit that might be it
htb boxes are on 10.10.10.0 so i didn't see problems there
If that's the case, and you can access other machines on 10.10, its probably not that then.
You also couldn't ping the room I booted up (for reference it was the nmap room)
if i spawn something in NYC2 that should rule out that problem right?
You can give it ago?
I can see that just fine, so its not the machine.
And its just showing as "Failed to connect to server" on the room split screen?
@deep trellis Yes - Not sure why but in the meantime i am good. i can see the machine IP through the full screen link - this is all i need the moment. i am not doing anything through the web interface
OKay, if it happens again and there is an issue - please send the link over
it looks like the attack machine deployed on vulnversity doesn't match the room - no squid and different number of ports found (i have verified that i am using the exact command as walk-through)
The attack machine is for you to useto attack
It's not the target machine
You need to deploy the target machine
Thanks @eager fulcrum - How do i deploy the target machine ?
By clicking the green deploy button in the top right corner
how can i reset some finish rooms?
The owner of the room or Muir can
I was a free userπ
Now i cannot activate for a day
I thought i should try your site amd then buy a subscription
@deep trellis this is a valid point, if this bug occurs it kinda breaks the free attackbox?
Yeah its an issue I think @vapid dawn is looking into - otherwise I'll deep dive into why it breaks every so often.
Specifically bad for ftee users who lose their free attackbox deploy though.
Yeah, not a great first user experience
I've added it as something to discuss with Ashu tomorrow when we call:)
Great thanks
So I made an oopsie
I had the bright idea to create a new team and promptly leave the newly created team.
Aaannd I didn't record the password before leaving 
Press the button to do the thing
Whatβs it called
Press the button to full screen it or whatever
Access in Browser
?
Refresh the page
lol I forgot that existed
Aaannd I didn't record the password before leaving
@steady schooner uh, so?
Refresh the page
@toxic python nah that doesn't help, access in browser does
π€·πΏββοΈ
Love your new name btw
@toxic python I wanted to use that team name, which is now taken of course.
There's no team members in it, so I figured it would be deleted when I left but that doesn't seem to be the case
Maybe Skidy can delete the empty team π€
That's what I was hoping for
~~brute force the password ~~
Bruh
Donβt just ping skidy lol
Heβs a busy bee
That can be seen as enforcing pretty soon xD (true story)
Probably an email would be best
Hi, can someone please help me? I'm working cuurently in the "Learn Linux ("zthlinux") room and accidentally modified the "shiba2" binary. Is it possible to reset the binary or the VM?
you can redeploy the machine
go to tryhackme, terminate the machine and deploy it again
@civic lodge i did it already
so everything reseted
When you terminate a VM, all changes that you made are lost. When you next deploy it, it just deploys from the template.
@eager fulcrum good to know, thanks
@civic lodge i did forget to set the environment variable π
hey guys, just checking. The support email is support@tryhackme.com right?
Yes
just needed a sanity check cause I sent an email 3 days ago and no reply yet
thanks @vernal ruin
yeah, not mad or anything don't worry π just really checking
HI, im new to this site and i may miss something... yesterday i starter a room then i left. Today i wanted to continue but i cant deploy the machine because the deploy button is missing... what should i do?
What room is that @pseudo nacelle
yes π thank you
No Worries
guys is any method so i can copy text from my machine and paste it in-browser kali machine?
You need to allow your browser to access your clipboard
@toxic python thank you!
Room = Blue / Windows. I have restarted the target host several of times, and tried the attack from both my machine over VPN and from a browser based machine and attacks keep failing as per screen dump below. I've followed a couple of write-ups and I can't see what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
@toxic python thank you - that was spot on
Fabulous π
Hey guys, I am planning on subscribing to THM but it is showing $10 though i am a student! I have sent a mail to the support team, how long do they generally take to get back?
It takes a while
I have a problem with python.
I installed django via pip3 and it's installed in my python3.8/site-packages
but I don't have python3.8 I use 3.7 π€
And now when i run the command, then i get an import error
This is the wrong channel @calm fern
this channel is only for vpn related questions or try hack me
okay sorry
Hey guys, I am getting an error when I try paying for subscription with paypal and i even mailed at hello@tryhackme.com but no reply. Any suggestions on what to do next?
Again same trouble regenerated EU-VIP-2 but the connection drops after 2 minutes
I was previously using EU-VIP-1 but the connection and response from room was very slow but EU-VIP-2 drops its connection after 2 minutes tried thrice
and it went backup
@narrow badge wait sometime to let them reply there are just two people answering the mail
nope its dropping the connection after sometimes
but I live in Asia and Na is far from us so i think it will increase the response and ms
I have also made a video for proof

My streak got reset... I was at 22 or so (I know, pathetic). I logged on today, and it said "1" and now I just did a room and it is up to 2... but I know I didn't miss a day. Any way to get it fixed?
Be proud of your accomplishment! This is something @deep trellis has to do manually but just in case he misses this ping, please email support@tryhackme.com with your site name and last streak number you remember.
Thanks!
Hi, quick question: Do need ovpn installed inside of my virtual machine or my on my real pc to connect. Because inside of my virtual machine i get an error
Connect from the VM otherwise it can cause problems
I tried. Does someone had the same issue. I already restored the VM to a fresh installed state but it didnΒ΄t help.
I just got a 500 interna server error from the website during a koth game
Yup, me too.
me too now
Me too π
hello, i received this message in a room
We're sorry! The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable tocomplete your request. Please contact
i refresh and i get the same message
Yea the site is down shouldn't take long to be up
aaa ok, thank you
just when i wanted to submit the root flag
@nimble dust π
back in business! 
I'm not sure if this is tech support or feature request, but is there a way to repeat a room? I checked on forums and found 4 people asking but no answers
The owner of the room can reset your progress
ok cool, thanks
Or Muirland
Hello, not sure if this is the proper group, but im doing the tartarus room and looks like it is not loading anymore (website) i have restarted that target vm and then restarted my open vpn and started the vpn troubleshooting which sasy im ok, but still the connections time out.. any suggestions?
the website isnt working but can you scan the ip of the room?
yeah gobuster was able to find a directory i want to go check but keeps timing out..
Sounds like you crashed it
It was working for me earlier. Want to DM me the creds you got?
Awesome!
Hello, I'm having a problem with the platform which makes me very uncomfortable, because every time I accumulate the streaks and try to reach 30 to get the badges, it happens to me that when I go through 20 streaks and do an activity, it resets the counter and the streaks return to 1.
If this channel is not for this type of thing, I would like to know where I can report my problem, thanks
how are you managing your streaks?
for example it doesnt work if you answer a question at 1 am in day 21 an then 11 pm in day 22
you need to have an interval of 24 hours between the questions answered
@civic lodge exactly that is the case, here it is 8 pm, not 24 hours have passed.
It has happened to me several times already when I am in 20 or 25 streaks, 2 times to be exact
well then i dont know what's going on, i have a pretty big streak, i normally do some stuff in the morning then do some more at night, my streak never reseted after i started doing it this way
It's 24 hours since you last answered a question
I have an explanation in her somewhere
you can have an event every day and still have no streak
Activity tracks different things.
activity tracks answers + deploys and some other things
so looking at that might be misleading
And again, activity is based on days but streaks are based on 24 hour since the last question answered
yup
I think skidy has express a desire to change the way it works, as an overhaul
the way it works is very nice, but normally other platforms do streaks differently so i get why it's hard for some people to understand
That doesn't sound directly tryhackme related @naive dust
also i'm pretty sure that's against their ToS 
Has anyone had trouble executing a payload in network services question 10

I sent it multiple times to the telnet server
telnet session*

Following the instructions to the red primer network services side of the course
I am newbie

Network services is a broken room!
Hey so some images on some rooms are hosted via imgur, which is blocked in my country
And as a result, I can't see them
A vpn would be a good work around
Good morning, I was wondering if anyone else is having an issue with the Common Linux Privesc room for the beginner learning path. It does not give me an option to deploy a machine and the 3rd step is telling me to ssh into a machine.
@teal vine It will be in a previous task. Look in the task dropdown for a task with the machine icon
Great, thank you for the help!
Hello! Aren't there suppose to be an image here? /commonlinuxprivesc room
Probably. Make sure you can access imgur
Alright, I will try. Thank you!
One more thing. How can I split screen the browser machine and the room?
quick question I keep trying to upload various vms to allow my students to work on them but I keep getting errors on the conversion, I check the distro etc can you please shine a light on what I'm doing wrong? are there other parameters I'm not seeing?
Seems I'm having problems with routing in my THM virtual machine. This seems to happen every time my first hour is up. Even though the route is there it complain that the target machine has no route to it. Any idea why? My solution this far is just to reboot the target, but that's getting a bit frustrating π

@bleak zephyr from what i know, the only thing you need to do is following the AWS conversion requirements https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vm-import/latest/userguide/vmie_prereqs.html
@daring cave Is that your own VM or THM's Kali?
@bleak zephyr π Hi, if you'd like to dm me we can discuss AWS conversion as it's really really painful.
@eager fulcrum THM VM via webpage
sure thx π
@daring cave Will check back in in an hour
@daring cave it's been an hour, still works here
@eager fulcrum weird :/
hey anyone know how i can get a rank in this server for my eJPT cert? im unaware of the process and i apologize in advanced if this is the wrong channel and im being stupid
You ask and a moderator adds it
