[solid phoenix]

Worked for you?

[dreamy silo]

switched to local server too

[solid phoenix]

hmm

[dreamy silo]

yeet

[solid phoenix]

Did you change any of the file @dreamy silo? Regenerated, waited a few minutes, redownloaded 5 times now and still getting your previous error regarding incorrect ciphers. Using the new zsh Kali for reference.

[dreamy silo]

yeah same, week 49 iso

just changed server location to 🇦🇺 and regenerated

worked

eur must just have issues

[solid phoenix]

7th times a charm!

[dreamy silo]

yay haha

[solid phoenix]

Cheers.

[dreamy silo]

hmm, well i cant access the machine that deployed, because its on a different subnet

thats really weird it would run it somewhere that cant be reached

im on 10.4 and it launched it on 10.10
so theres no way i can get to that destination

[eager fulcrum]

False

10.0.0.0/8

It's a big network

[naive dust]

daaaaaamn whack 8

that's a gizallion hosts

[dreamy silo]

well, i cant reach it, so

nothing in ping either

[eager fulcrum]

Don't use the Kali VPN manager

Use the command line

!vpnscript

[dreamy silo]

subnet says 255.255.128.0

[eager fulcrum]

There's routing magic happening

You can't talk to the other VPN server's clients but you can talk to 10.10.0.0/16

[dreamy silo]

boooo, it made tun0 instead of my fancy thm interface name

still cant reach it, even though the connection test passed

[hazy crystal]

Heya, is there anyway to completely reset your try hack me account? as in all progress?

[eager fulcrum]

Email [e-mail]

[hazy crystal]

ok thank you

[wind wedge]

What room?

[dreamy silo]

there we go, i had to add 10.0.0.0/8 to the proxy exception list

put it back in the gui so i can have my fancy thm interface again
still works

[eager fulcrum]

Check internet access

Because the GUI VPN manager tends to add 0.0.0.0/0 via the VPN

[dreamy silo]

yeah its all good

[left solstice]

Im just doing the crackthehash room and on the bcrypt hash. its saying in hashcat that it gonna take aroun 3 days... is there a quicker way?

[eager fulcrum]

Yep

Filter the wordlist down to 4 character passwords

[left solstice]

what the option to do that

[left solstice]

This is my issue, i dont see the obvious

[lilac summit]

What is the email for support please? Thanks

[wind wedge]

[lilac summit]

Thanks. Meed to try to change my username 😬😬😬

[wraith elm]

i can open active machine with openvpn

[eager fulcrum]

You're not fully connected

[wraith elm]

this openvpn file need to download for day two again

[eager fulcrum]

You only need to download your config file once

It is the same config file for all of TryHackMe, except for Throwback

[wraith elm]

what should i do ?

[eager fulcrum]

Wait for it to connect fully, or control C and try to reconnect.

[wraith elm]

yeah

i have been wait for too long time .i will reconnect it

keeping showing this error

[trim moat]

run it as "sudo"

[wraith elm]

i am in root user

[red sierra]

Hi Support...
Can't connect to the deployed machine in "Corp" room...

Tried via web browser and also external RDP client...

Any ideas??

[eager fulcrum]

Terminate

Redeploy

[red sierra]

Hi @eager fulcrum , yea done that several times now

..the old turn it off and back on again trick.. haha....

[zealous yoke]

Ah Corp

There’s quite a few issues with that room (that being one of them...the credentials have expired) and it’s on my list to re-write

[red sierra]

Ohh.. okay....
So Just skip it for now??

[zealous yoke]

For the time being yes (: there’s a few room breaking bugs in there atm

Actually, I think it needs to be private in the mean while

[red sierra]

..Moving on then... Thanks for the swift response..

[zealous yoke]

Sorry about that!

[red sierra]

@zealous yoke ... No problem.... Same issue with "postexploit"??

[zealous yoke]

If it’s showing that for Post exploit you’ll need to use an RDP client (:

[quiet totem]

yo i kinda corrupted my vmdk file and used a temp email which i didnt save can anyone help me get my account back?

[zealous yoke]

I’ll get the in-browser credentials replaced tomorrow 👍

[red sierra]

@zealous yoke lemme try

[zealous yoke]

Should be in task 2

[red sierra]

@zealous yoke sorry mate, but computer says no..... (Logon Failure..

[zealous yoke]

Mhhh interesting, bare with (:

[red sierra]

sure...

[zealous yoke]

Ah yeah, your syntax it’s just /u:Administrator you provide the domain with /d: I.e. /d:CONTROLLER

[red sierra]

hmmmm.... same.....

[zealous yoke]

Mhhm, it’s most likely case sensitive for the User and Domain

[red sierra]

@eager fulcrum You are a WINNER!!!!

[eager fulcrum]

[red sierra]

Apologies for bugging the room with n000b issues...

[zealous yoke]

Ayy nice one fella @eager fulcrum

[eager fulcrum]

No that's actually a really annoying issue

It comes up with Crypt hashes all the time

$1$, $6$, all ruined by bash

[red sierra]

Yea.... ur right..

..now I come to think of it

[tawdry orbit]

bash doesn't like cash $$$

[true hawk]

hi, I'm trying to setup openvpn but the config files I download have an empty <cert> section. openvpn gives "Cannot load inline certificate file" is this a bug or am I doing something dumb?

[eager fulcrum]

Click regnerate on the site

Wait 60 seconds

Redownload

[true hawk]

that looks better. thanks!

[wicked oasis]

Hello I did the Advent 2 day 2 room and it's not letting me get my certificate and I wanted to make sure I would still get credit

[placid mango]

Its not completed yet.

[ebon igloo]

not done

[wraith elm]

this room is very trendy now

[wraith elm]

i think this will finish at day 25

[wicked oasis]

Ok thank you all

[true ridge]

hey frens, I'm trying to connect to the vpn but its taking a really long time to load, is this normal?

this is my second time getting the config file, its content looks fine

[placid mango]

Is openvpn blocked in your country?

[true ridge]

nope

[placid mango]

You are on Windows right?

[true ridge]

yes

using Kali wsl

[placid mango]

Use vpn in Kali then.

[true ridge]

i did sudo apt-get install openvpn and it went through, not sure if thatdid anything

how do i go about that after installing openvpn?

[placid mango]

You wanna know how to connect to vpn in Kali?

[true ridge]

yes

[placid mango]

https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn

Do this room.

[true ridge]

great, thanks!

[wraith elm]

why ?

permission ulock 9 hour

[placid mango]

Huh?

[round solstice]

Hi team- I solved the issue.

[vestal sigil]

Hey. This is not that big of a deal but the arrangement of the tasks in the Hardening Basics Part 2 room are kinda off.

[placid mango]

You have to be more specific. Also in #778305825797177374 .

[thorny cove]

hey guys i have an issue withe the vpn on kali linux

i run the command and the website show me the green tick meaning that im connected but can't access my machine nor the website to check if the connection is established

but the openvpn command shows a fatal error

[thorny cove]

nvm solved it

[left solstice]

I'm in a costa and they are blocking everything lol what vpn you guys use?

or can i change my dns to like 1.1.1.1 or something sure i read that like googles dns or is that nothing to do with routing traffic

[whole cipher]

Hey im currently trying to do the Day 2 for the Advent of Cyber and im having issues trying to get my IP. I try run ip a show tun0 but it just says Device "tun0" does not exist.

[left solstice]

just run ip a

or ifconfig if not available

[whole cipher]

Ive done that and tun0 is not a thing so i tried eth0 ip but it just times out when i try do the revershell

[muted gorge]

Hello, I have an error when I tried to connect with my OpenVpn Profile : 'There was an error attempting to connect to the selected server"

[amber oriole]

Are you sure openvpn is installed @whole cipher? which openvpn to check if and where.

Maybe some update threw it out

[whole cipher]

Im using the Windows Version i tried to reinstall it and it still doesnt work

[amber oriole]

If you open device manager, does it state a OpenVPN Tunnel Adapter under Network Adapters?

[glass igloo]

hello all, I'm from java development background, **where can i find similar daily challenges like 25 days tryhackme contest? **

[amber oriole]

@glass igloo https://tryhackme.com/room/adventofcyber2 #778305825797177374

[glass igloo]

@amber oriole done any other 30 days contest please share

[amber oriole]

Currently THM doesn't have any other contests running that I'm aware of, but these questions are better for #infosec-general

[glass igloo]

ok thanks @amber oriole

[whole cipher]

There is this TAP-Windows Adapter V9 for OpenVPN Connect

[amber oriole]

Since you're on windows can you try ipconfig /all and see if it pops up there?

[whole cipher]

If im using a kali vm do i need to get the linux version or does it not matter if i just run the windows one then just use my kali vm?

[amber oriole]

You need to install OpenVPN on your Kali VM.

[whole cipher]

ah

[amber oriole]

Installing OpenVPN on your windows host won't get you anywhere without a massive configuration.

[whole cipher]

Alright ill try that now, thanks for you help

[amber oriole]

If there's any issue popping up in Kali, feel free to @ me - I'm available for a bit.

Hello, I wanted to know why when I give it to implement (the green button) I only see an IP 10.10 ...... and the console does not appear. Could it be that I have to do this task from attackbox?

[eager fulcrum]

Or your own machine

You aren't usually given access to the machines, you need to hack your way in. Don't expect to get a terminal etc, you don't usually get given access.

You're not correctly connected to the VPN

[hidden shuttle]

I'm connected to the VPN, I've made it 3/4of the way through day 2 three different times, but this is what I'm seeing:

I even paid for a 3 month subscription so I could reopen my attack box after everything froze. :/

(Sorry - Advent of Cyber Day 2)

[placid mango]

Is that the correct ip of room?

[hidden shuttle]

If you look up at the top righthand side - that's the IP listed - and also in the green box

[placid mango]

Nah, I mean use the aoc2 room ip there.

[wind wedge]

You're using the attack box ip not the ip given by the room

[spark apex]

This is more of a general question than actual support, but since 2 days every THM page I go to gives me a Cloudfare DDoS check page before resolving, not a big deal but a little annoying, any idea why? I tried to look it up but couldn't find a reason. I'm using my own Kali VM over an openVPN connection.

[hidden shuttle]

Thank you...

that was the dumbest thing I've done yet this week, which is saying alot

[naive dust]

Sorry to ask so much I'm new and I'm learning .... I can connect to the vpn .. I have searched but can not find to download the file and access it from my kali linux private

[placid mango]

Which file?

[naive dust]

open vpn

[placid mango]

It'll be in your downloads folder by default if you've downloaded it.

[naive dust]

that is that I cannot find where to download it.

I already found it, it was in my user icon

[smoky fossil]

I can't connect to thm through openvpn

I dunno what's the problem

[tardy vessel]

run it as sudo

[smoky fossil]

oh yeah lol

I been tryna fix this for about 10mins now

it worked thank u

[naive dust]

hey i can't connect to the openvpn, it works normally

(it just hangs on that line, timeouts then repeats a few times until it gives up)

[fluid thunder]

You could try regenerating your vpn config (or changing region) first to see if it solves it

[naive dust]

okay

so it seems like i can't reach the openvpn server EU-Regular-2 i'll try the 1

even trying to just ping the ip dosn't work

okay changing regions then starting the script worked for me

[chilly shore]

the picklerick room server i tink is kinda crashing gobuster doesnt seem to be working very well

[fluid thunder]

yay 🥳

[toxic python]

its not. decrease your threads or something

[quaint flicker]

are all the resources spent on the advent of cypher room? I am doing another and the ping is unbelievably high 3000ms -_-

[chilly shore]

exactly thats probably it because its taking a lot of time to load the rooms

[naive dust]

and probably why it just timed out for me

[quaint flicker]

oh well... need another distraction then...

[toxic python]

do you only have 1 VPN running

the load for AOC shouldnt affect the connectivity for other boxes as far as I know

[quaint flicker]

ya

just the thm one

[toxic python]

which room are you doing

[quaint flicker]

the new one... unbaked

unbaked_pie

[toxic python]

i cant check cuz its a sub only room. But i havent had any problems with any rooms

[quaint flicker]

leave it, will do sometime later

Hi, I need some help with foxy proxy.
I was trying to use the whitelist pattern to make burp only check 10.10.* IPs. It now detects the rooms webpages, but states that "The proxy server is refusing connections".

Anyone set up his proxy that way and can help me out?

[placid mango]

Ask in #infosec-general .

umm advent of cyber

my instance is not being deployed

[vernal ruin]

Yes, keep going

Your Instance ID ?

[naive dust]

[naive dust]

like see once i deploy the machine.. the site we should open

isnt loading

it keeps on showing that loading thing

but doesnt load at all

[vernal ruin]

"that loading thing" ? Can you exactly let me know what's going on, probably with a screenshot.

[naive dust]

yea

[frank valley]

Dear Support Team, the answer when submitted the website doesnt accept unless refresh I am using firefox esr 78.x on Kali 2020.4 latest and greatest release

not a paid user though

[deft zodiac]

Yeah. Not sure why only 3 months minimum via PayPal and 1 month via CC. I paid the 3 months because I wanted to use PayPal as well but so far it has been awesome. If you can, you should pay the 3 months. Ton of stuff and great community.

[acoustic estuary]

Does the attackbox reset when I am done with it? Are files wiped? Also, is there any way to run the custom attackbox in my own VM?

[trim moat]

for your own VM there is a vpn that you can connect over

!help vpn

[acoustic estuary]

Yeah, I do the VPN now, I just like some of the customizations the attackbox has, it just seems slower in browser than a local vm is. I guess I could just install the stuff I like on my own

[trim moat]

the attack box is a kali box I think

[acoustic estuary]

Oh I just found out you can RDP to the attackbox, I am going to try that and see if its better than browser

[trim moat]

the attack box does reset each time that I have used them

[toxic python]

@wicked palm hiya

[wicked palm]

Help 😭

[toxic python]

So did you terminate the attack box and then redeploy it?

[wicked palm]

No I just terminated first

Assuming everything will restart

should I terminate the attack box too?

[sand sapphire]

Hmmm.... Attack box won't start. I have not run it since last night, though.
Suggestions?

[toxic python]

Yes

[wicked palm]

ok ty

[toxic python]

Terminate the attack box. And then redeploy it

That’s what says disconnected, right?

[wicked palm]

yes

So I start from the beginning again right?

[toxic python]

Terminate the attack box. And then redeploy it

Then yea do that^

[wicked palm]

oh man

ok

I don't think I have much time left

Is this a short exercise? Otherwise will I have to try again tomorrow?

[toxic python]

This will take literally 1 minute

[naive dust]

Hello

[toxic python]

All you have to do is click terminate. And then click redeploy. And then if it doesn’t work then I ping an admin @wicked palm

[wicked palm]

okie dokes thank you!

[toxic python]

Hiya. One sec please. Sorting someone else out then I’ll help you 🙂

[naive dust]

No worries

[toxic python]

Np. Plz let me know if it works cuz I’m about to ping an admin for this other persons problem

So lmk if I should include your issue

[wicked palm]

ok give me moment

[toxic python]

Sure

[wicked palm]

I can't

I've run out of time

[toxic python]

You said you had 22 minutes left 7 minutes ago?

[wicked palm]

I thought so too

if you look at my screen shot

in the bottom right hand corner

it said 25mins

[toxic python]

I don’t know what that number is tbh I don’t use the attack box

[wicked palm]

we can't have been talking for 25mins

[toxic python]

It’s been 8 minutes now

We weren’t.

[wicked palm]

Maybe I'll just start fresh tomorrow instead

I feel a little disheartened right now

[toxic python]

@naive dust hey can you open the task and lmk if the questions are answered?

[naive dust]

Yeah 1 sec

[toxic python]

I’m sorry to hear that. Can you confirm the time you opened the attack box and lmk what time you began?

[wicked palm]

Ok

[naive dust]

Yeah still the same @toxic python

[toxic python]

If youre really being cut short then you’re owed that time and I think skidy will grant it to you 🙂

[toxic python]

The answers are already there, yes?

[naive dust]

No questions or answers, just green tick

[wicked palm]

Ok so I started around 9pm gmt

[naive dust]

just trying to log out and in again

[wicked palm]

I started having issues at 9:19

[toxic python]

Cool lmk if that works @naive dust

[wicked palm]

I can send a screenshot of that

I had 37mins

[toxic python]

Yes please @wicked palm that will be useful

[toxic python]

Yep I believe you just a screenshot and I’ll let the admin know

[naive dust]

relogged, cleared cache but still the same

[toxic python]

Ah, you’re not a subscriber so it doesn’t have internet access

[wicked palm]

if you look at the bottom corner it says 37mins

[toxic python]

@barren birch can you reset AOC2 for @naive dust He hasn’t done it but it’s saying he has

[toxic python]

Yes I see. You’re not a subscriber so it shouldn’t have internet access so that’s intended. Can you show the disconnected error though?

[naive dust]

My THM handle is wahost071

[toxic python]

@barren birch

[wicked palm]

The one I sent earlier?

[toxic python]

Yes

[toxic python]

James knows more about the attack box than me

Is that intended @eager fulcrum The disconnected thing

[wicked palm]

I don't know who James is but ok

[toxic python]

I was gonna ask skidy

[toxic python]

Haha don’t worry I pinged him. Hell magically appear in a bit

[naive dust]

Question, does the "Full name" on the "Your profile" tab display for everyone? or is it kept private? it says I need to fill it in to as per the requirements for the AoC

[barren birch]

Reset you @naive dust

[toxic python]

Only thing others can see in terms of your profile besides your rank is username @naive dust

[naive dust]

Cheers @barren birch will have a look

[eager fulcrum]

Hi yes no that's not good

[toxic python]

@naive dust can you check again if the room is reset for you now?

[eager fulcrum]

It's used for the certificate for AoC, or Throwback

[toxic python]

Thanks I’ll ping skidy then

[wicked palm]

We need to put in our full name in the profile for AoC and throwback?

Sorry butting in here

[toxic python]

@deep trellis hiya. This user is having issues with the attack box (side note do I ping you or ashu or someone else for attack box issues?). They’re getting this disconnected error

[toxic python]

You put whatever name you want to appear on your certificate of completion

[naive dust]

@barren birch it is still showing everything with a green tick

[wicked palm]

Ok

[naive dust]

this is what I see when I log out (expecting this when I log in as I didn't complete anything)

[toxic python]

Can you show logged in screenshot too?

[naive dust]

ya

[toxic python]

Thanks

[toxic python]

@deep trellis another one for you with @naive dust He hasn’t dont any of AOC2 but it’s showing everything completed. Muir reset him but same issue

My THM handle is wahost071
His isernsme^

[toxic python]

Hey there’s a 24 hour cool down from when you either deployed or had the box expired

[subtle elm]

hey guys I got a question about the payment possibilities for the VIP access... Is this the right room?

[toxic python]

Sure

[sand sapphire]

@toxic python so a full 24 hours in between? Not truly once per day?

[toxic python]

@naive dust @wicked palm if you give it a sec skidy will answer

[wicked palm]

okie dokes

[naive dust]

No rush, thanks for the help @toxic python

[toxic python]

That’s what I’ve been told. @zealous yoke maybe you can verify? (Never used attack box so idk rules)

[deep trellis]

Hi there, can you please try leaving the room (options, leave room) and then try rejoining

[toxic python]

Skidy my savior

[naive dust]

Having a try

[subtle elm]

There are no possibilities for me to pay by using Paypal / Credit / Debit cards, so I was wondering if direct wire transfer is also an option?

[naive dust]

Same thing 😦 @deep trellis

[deep trellis]

How're you rejoining the room?

[toxic python]

This I have no clue. Maybe skidy can answer that too since he’s here. If not I’ll tag someone with more knowledge than me once he’s helped out these other 3

[deep trellis]

Hey, we're supporting other payment options early next year. However, as it currently stands, its only the options you've listed - sorry.

[naive dust]

1 sec

why my point stuck on 888

[toxic python]

#general @naive dust

[naive dust]

@deep trellis hope this gif works

[subtle elm]

Shieeet. @deep trellis would wire transfer be one of them? There is plenty of learning opportunities / things to do for me now w/o the VIP-only limited stuff, but I want to subscribe so bad..

[whole spire]

Hello I have been having trouble with yesterday's challenge I continue to get an error for Daemonise...? Any Help?

[naive dust]

I finshed Linux Challenges and Introductory Networking but my point still 888

[toxic python]

@whole spire #778305825797177374 check pins

[whole spire]

Thanks

[eager fulcrum]

Wrong IP probably tho

[toxic python]

#general please use the correct channel

[naive dust]

oh ok

[eager fulcrum]

Is this not the correct channel?

Site question

[deep trellis]

If you logout and log back into to THM, it'll work:)

[toxic python]

For asking about how the points work? I vote no. But I bow down to you if it is deemed I’m incorrect

[deep trellis]

Unfortunately not, sorry.

[whole spire]

Of Course..... Third point! Thanks @toxic python

[eager fulcrum]

It's a site/vpn question

[toxic python]

🙇

[naive dust]

epic its working now! thanks a lot @toxic python @deep trellis hope you both have a great day/night!

[toxic python]

I hope you have a better one 😉

[subtle elm]

damn... Alright, thanks @toxic python and @deep trellis for the answers!

[toxic python]

@deep trellis I know you’re busy but I just wanna make sure @wicked palm issue isn’t lost in the shuffle that is #site-support

[deep trellis]

Thats odd, it shouldn't have just disconnected unless you shutdown the machine?

[wicked palm]

Lol no!

[deep trellis]

If you've a VIP user, please re-deploy, otherwise I'll reset your daily limit

[wicked palm]

I'm not sorry

[deep trellis]

It did, thanks for the nudge.

No worries, whats your THM username?

[wicked palm]

Quirky

Hey people use a different username on the site so normal to ask!

[deep trellis]

Try redeploy now please

[wicked palm]

ok

yay it worked thank you ❤️

[naive dust]

so this is the right channel for support

[toxic python]

Depends on the type but yea probably

You can ask your point question here I’ve been overruled by James so I apologize about earlier

Plz forgive

[naive dust]

my account show that I have connection with the site but i dont second thing that my point wont change after I finshed the rooms

I use the kali on the site

Idk where it is

[toxic python]

Oh my bad

Can you be more specific then about not being connected?

[eager fulcrum]

Not all rooms award points, case closed

[naive dust]

I did'nt start my machine but on the site it's shows that I have connection

I log out and log in with other browser and stil the same

[toxic python]

Ignore what the site says about being connected

It’s not accurate

[naive dust]

oh ok

Hi again 😅 I was redownloading the VPN access pack but I am getting redirected to a 404 when I access the access tab under my profile, trieed regenning but same thing

It makes a strange notification sound when I press a button 🤔

[eager fulcrum]

If you check the pins, there's a solution

[naive dust]

Ah should have done that, thanks @eager fulcrum, works thanks!!

[carmine pumice]

on my kali vm, firefox lags when i switch tabs. it'll still display the previous tab or only show a portion of the tab i switched to. sometimes it'll go away if i scroll but otherwise i have to keep switching back and forth until it shows up correctly. any idea?

[broken bear]

check ram usage on the VM

[eager fulcrum]

Hi, this channel is for directly THM related support, like site or VPN issues. Try #general please

[cyan hamlet]

I subscribed using PayPal, I read that you guys don’t supply a receipt. Should I consider your confirmation email as close to a receipt as I’ll get?

[wind wedge]

I would imagine it shows up in your paypal receipts

Or you can go to your profile > receipts and this will show up

[eager fulcrum]

Ah yep that should work

It'll be the 3/6/whatever part

[trim moat]

for the paypal you can use the THM email or the paypal receipt, it comes via email or in your account

[cyan hamlet]

Thanks for the responses.

[naive dust]

hey how to use the use the attackbox?

https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn

[eager fulcrum]

@naive dust That doesn't actually answer their question

Seeing as they asked about the attackbox

[naive dust]

I was too slow

[civic lodge]

click the blue button on top of the page written "start attack box"

[wraith elm]

i cannot open this service

[sharp bear]

thats an odd one hmmm

[knotty plinth]

@wraith elm Regenerate the .ovpn file

[wraith elm]

okay i will try it

[eager fulcrum]

Make sure you wait 60 seconds before redownloading it

After clicking regenerate

[wraith elm]

still showing that errot @knotty plinth

okay i gonna try again

[knotty plinth]

That's odd

[wraith elm]

what do you mean by odd ?

[civic lodge]

weird

try to regenerate the file from another server

[wraith elm]

yeah i did

still showing this error

[urban scarab]

Oh someone else has an error with the openvpn server as too?

That's why I'm here...

I will read up and try what was said for a solution

Where is "regenerate" at?

Found it

[tardy vessel]

uhhhh

[minor robin]

Using my own VM for openvpn. It can't establish a connection. It just states it's restarting in 5 seconds.

Error: "TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (Check your network connectivity) This error occurs in Kali. In Windows the VPN never connects. Cloud this be a firewall issue?

[placid mango]

Try regenerating or changing server.

[west island]

Hey there, quick question: I started the attack box and deployed the task machine for the Dec 1 advent task.
Pinging the IP I get for the task machine from inside the attack box gives me 100% packet loss 🤔

(Didn't have any issues with the connection tutorial setup yesterday)

[placid mango]

Is the task machine started? Also, it takes some time to fully boot up.

[west island]

I watched the loading bar until that disappeared, showing me the IP and the time left until expiration now (53m)

actually nevermind, just tried pinging again and now it works

guess it was not fully booted yet... interesting that it already counted down time until expiration anyway 🤔

[trim moat]

there is a countdown on the deployed hosts that sometime may take a few minutes past when the IP appears

[west island]

okay, noted.

[hazy matrix]

This is probably a strange question, but on the attack box, is there something magic with the letter L? When I press it the box becomes a grid of blue tiles like a screen saver or somethin

it's a bit awkward trying to type things in the terminal when the key L isn't allowed

now it just stopped doing that all of a sudden, but I had that behaviour yesterday too for a while

[rare roost]

bruh i can't ping the machine

oh wait I can now

lol

Wait the machine is dead again

I mean after a certain time, the machine doesn't give me a respone

Ping doesn't work

🤔

oh wait it works now

[trim moat]

are you on attack machine or vpn

[rare roost]

vpn

It dies frequently

it may be an issue with your tunnel then, probably bandwidth related

Umm, the path to my config, it means the path to my thm.opvn file?

[placid mango]

Aye.

[rare roost]

it says not found

[placid mango]

Then you entered wrong path.

[rare roost]

hmm

[placid mango]

Give it full path like /home/user/abc.ovpn.

[rare roost]

Doesn't work

[naive dust]

Hiya, I am having a bit of a struggle with my WiFi connection on Kali, and after trying a bunch of things I found online, it is still not working.
Anybody time to help me out?

If this is to thm unspecific for this discord, apologies.

[placid mango]

John, that's a wrong path then.

[rare roost]

how is it a wrong path

🤔

[placid mango]

Do ls -la /home/abc.ovpn like this to check it exists or not.

[rare roost]

yes

ye this is kinda annoying

[placid mango]

Oh wait.

[naive dust]

I moved it into the same directory and it worked just fine for me, maybe that helps?

[rare roost]

i did that

but it doesn't work

[naive dust]

Oh, mb

[placid mango]

My bad, put this script in your current directory or put your config in script directory and try again.

[rare roost]

but its already here 🤔

[naive dust]

Is it supposed to be a txt?

[rare roost]

i dont know?

lemme change the suffix

nah it does nothing

lol

[placid mango]

Can you change the extension to ovpn of your vpn config?

Opvn is wrong.

Then it should detect it automatically.

[rare roost]

ye

Oh that works

nice

Thanks Elf

[placid mango]

Script checks for ovpn and your extension was opvn.

[rare roost]

I dont know why my file extension was opvn

But anyway thanks for your help

Hi! Just a quick one - does the TryHackMe VPN have any kind of client isolation? Read: is it safe to connect from my main device without a VM? 😄

[eager fulcrum]

You're connecting to a network full of hackers

Depends if your stuff is reasonably secured.

[wooden grotto]

I'll stick to a VM in that case - just wanted to check there wasn't any particular mitigations that had been put in place...but clearly not -- cheers 🍻

you do make a good point though - I doubt any mitigations would actually do anything anyway.. . ..

[crisp cedar]

heya. In networkservices2, I keep failing to mount the nsf server and keep getting the same error. That filesystem type "nsf" is unknown apparently.
I've tried reseting the machines and looking online for solutions but using vers or nsfvers didnt work. Dunno if maybe I'm missing somthing or...

(and my bad here on this quick screenie I took, I know the share is the name of the share we found and not literally "share" )

[eager fulcrum]

nfs

not nsf

@crisp cedar Just a typo in your command

[crisp cedar]

I... cant believe that was it... jesus christ..
thank you, sorry for that. I should have seen that...

[torn lodge]

for some reason my AttackBox froze, when I refreshed, it won't let me access it again.

Now it says I need to subscribe. Are the AttackBoxes on a timer other than the deployed machines for hacking?

Hi i'm having trouble deploying machines in rooms. I am trying to do the learn linux room but whenever i try deploying the machine it will show the progress bar but when it makes it to 100% it just becomes a white box and nothing happens.

I tried using my normal windows 10 desktop and a kali linux vm same thing happens

[eager fulcrum]

Do you get an IP under active machine information?

[teal cove]

yes

[eager fulcrum]

You can try to SSH in probably. In Browser access has been a bit shaky lately

[teal cove]

The room doesn't give a password to ssh in but ill try another one if access has been shaky

[eager fulcrum]

shiba1:shiba1 right?

That's given to you?

Run the VPN in kali if you're using kali to do anything tryhackme.

i run vpn in kali only

Good bye.

oh i didnt see that can u ask again

No. I don't get paid to help. You wouldn't run the troubleshooting script, and you wouldn't answer my basic troubleshooting questions. I don't have the patience for that.

I was completing all the tasks daily , and have got the green ticks on each of them , but idk why my streak changed from 4 to 1 today , does that means I am out ? 🥺

[verbal hawk]

I'm having problems with time KRB_AP_ERR_SKEW(Clock skew too great) but if I check the target DC time with nmap script smb2-time, I get date: 2020-12-05T15:10:23
On my computer, I do:

root@kali:~/# timedatectl set-time 15:11:23
15:11:23
root@kali:~/# date
Sat Dec  5 15:11:24 UTC 2020

So now it is the same time but I still get that clock skew error. What else can I try to do?

[clever sage]

Is your timezone set in timedatectl?

[verbal hawk]

Don't think so

[clever sage]

This is how I usually set the time.

[verbal hawk]

It seems that the time switches back, now it is Sat Dec 5 07:34:27 UTC 2020 instead of Sat Dec 5 15:34:27 UTC 2020

[clever sage]

Make sure the clock in my bios is set to utc.
timedatectl set-timezone xxxx
Idk if you want ot use ntp or not but that helps synce your clock.

timedatectl set-ntp true

[verbal hawk]

I don't know which timezone the DC users though

[clever sage]

DC? in the US?

[verbal hawk]

Haven't figured out that from using nmap

Scanned it now again with nmap and got |_http-date: Sat, 05 Dec 2020 15:36:19 GMT; +8h00m00s from local time.

so I know it's GMT, but not exactly what region

[clever sage]

Idk what you are trying to do lol

[verbal hawk]

I am trying to set the time on my Kali Linux to bet he same as that server

so the clock is synced and have the same time

[clever sage]

What time are you trying to set?
Your local machine?

On your machine the time should be set to utc and then your timezone

Doesn't matter what time it is on the server.
This is why everyhting uses utc or gmt.

[verbal hawk]

Okay so I don't need to care about the timezone. But I want to set my kali linux to the same time as that server

and now my machine has Sat Dec 5 07:39:46 UTC 2020

[clever sage]

Set your machine to the correct time and you won't have to worry about that as far as I know.

Universal time: Sat 2020-12-05 07:40:34 UTC

See?
It's 7:40 am here and there and everywhere lol

[verbal hawk]

You see in the end there? After some seconds, it switches back and I don't know why

[naive dust]

I have been try to solve it on my machine can you tell me please why wfuzz is showing me this error zsh: no matches found: http://10.10.41.229/api/site-log.php?date=FUZZ

Hi. I am quite new to THM. I am not on OpenVPN yet. I did not use the AttackBox too. I just deployed (https://tryhackme.com/room/linux1) and got access to the Linux. So I am wondering if I am doing correctly. If yes, I suppose I don't have to use the AttackBox/Kali Machine to access the deployed machine?

[rancid epoch]

Ok. Thanks.

[obsidian harness]

Good morning,

I am having troubles with not being able to ping any boxes I deploy. I've ran through everything on the "troubleshooting" regarding OVPN with no success, I've even ran the script. Reset my internet/computer/life (one night of sleep) and still no success. Any ideas on where I should be looking next?

[naive dust]

Some of the rooms have ICMP disabled, so if it is just the ping you are missing

[dreamy walrus]

darn tht openvpn config didnt work on my kali vm

[obsidian harness]

It's the nmap box in particular, which I would think would have ping? I cannot do anything on that box. Every time I deploy it it won't let me ping or even nmap the IP.

[placid mango]

Can you go to http://10.10.10.10/?

[dreamy walrus]

Finally lol, I went to regen tht openvpn config file

and now it connects

[knotty ember]

I can't ping the machine in the nmap room activity (I enrolled in the complete beginner path) but I can ping other IP addresses. I'm not sure is this part of the activity? Please help.

[graceful garden]

some machines don't like pings.

But you can add -Pn to your nmap to not ping 🙂

and/or wait a solid 5 mins - Remember when you press 'deploy', it's starting up a whole virtual computer

[knotty ember]

That's working for me. Thanks a lot. ❤️

already tried re-regenarting and switching servers

[zealous yoke]

Hey! Yes that sounds like a bad VPN config file. Could you switch to another server, regenerate and wait 60 seconds please?

[signal rune]

ok will try again

[zealous yoke]

Waiting the 60 seconds is super important 😄

[signal rune]

I'm connected, thanks! Here's the difference between waiting 30secs and 90secs before downloading the file, the file wasn't complete lol

[zealous yoke]

Great! Glad to hear that, thanks for showing the difference. I'll look into getting that added as a notice on the access page 👍

[signal rune]

It says 10 seconds but it's not enough 👍

[marsh vector]

Hello team I would like to ask about an error

I'm trying to solve the task 8 section 2 in the room ZTH: Web 2

any suggestion please on that?

seems something blocking the command after 2000 attemps..

[eager fulcrum]

Heads up, staying on the same server tends to work

[marsh vector]

I found it need the -Z arg

[jagged coyote]

Good Afternoon all... I am having some issues with the "Buffer Overflow Prep" OVERFLOW 1 task... It is required I copy the fuzzer script and run it in my Kali machine against the target, however when I do so, I get this error...

Expected an indented block - I figured I'd add an indent, but the script still doesnt run. I've copied and pasted it a few times straight from the THM page

[eager fulcrum]

screenshot the code?

[eager fulcrum]

That looks like it's entirely missing indents

Which is going to be a big problem

[jagged coyote]

Shall I learn how to put indents on python before going any further then haha

[eager fulcrum]

You should just be able to copy the indents by eye from the room

[jagged coyote]

No indents when I check on Chrome or Edge :/

[lethal fractal]

I'm not sure if this counts as "tech-support" but I want to change my payment method associated with my account. I may be blind (likely) or there is no option to do so anywhere on the site. Any help?

[trim moat]

you may need to email support for that one

[lethal fractal]

alright, will do

[eager fulcrum]

Cancel and resub

[lethal fractal]

I tried that, it just nudges me to resub by clicking "I made a grave mistake. Dont let my subscription expire" but there is no way to set a new payment method there either. So I would have to wait until the subscription runs out to change it, which is just a bit inconvenient lol

[eager fulcrum]

Ok then probably email

[e-mail]

[lethal fractal]

ah whoops, I wrote to [e-mail], hopefully that works

[eager fulcrum]

That also works

[jagged coyote]

woo got the indenting working anyway - should of messed around more. thank you

[scarlet shell]

I cannot find path to deploy vm

[eager fulcrum]

What do you mean? @scarlet shell

[scarlet shell]

In your old UI of the site there is a direct tab to deploy attackbox
Now i cannot find it

[eager fulcrum]

It's not my old UI.

It's under your profile icon now.

[scarlet shell]

@eager fulcrum
Are you a volunteer ?

[eager fulcrum]

Everyone is.

More or less

[scarlet shell]

Ohh i see✌️
Okayy

[eager fulcrum]

I do make content for THM.

[scarlet shell]

Okayy✌️

Btw it was easier before to access attackbox

[eager fulcrum]

There's a feedback form on the site @scarlet shell

My sqlmap is behaving strange.
When I am updating or download sqlmap , it showing all packages are updated. But when I am running sqlmap it's showing command not found

Not sure if this is the right chat to ask the question but.

I can't seem to connect to the server for my vpn.

[vernal ruin]

Change Server, Regenerate the Config, Wait 30-40 Seconds, Download it again

[eager fulcrum]

@vernal ruin no

It just needs sudo

@wet phoenix You're missing sudo.

[wet phoenix]

Oh

Never had to use sudo before not sure why I need it now

It works thanks!

[eager fulcrum]

You wouldn't have needed it if you were root before

[vernal ruin]

Right, I did not read through properly. Sorry for the wrong advice Djdude, James

[wet phoenix]

Its fine. You were just trying to help. 🙂

[vernal ruin]

I need sleep, I will go get that now

[fringe axle]

Tried to start Day 5 of AoC but my MACHINE_IP:8000 is stuck on cyberChef, which I have never run locally. I tried killing processes running on 8000, but no luck. Any way to help or reset the box?

[eager fulcrum]

@fringe axle You need to deploy the target machkne

You're using the IP address of the attack box, which is the VM you have control over.

[fringe axle]

ugh you are so right

[eager fulcrum]

MACHINE_IP gets replaced with the IP of the machine when you deploy it.

[thin acorn]

thank you for the reminder to use port 8000 for today's (day 5) challenge! I forgot that part. 😆

[unreal quarry]

anyone taking or passed the ejpt? dm me

[brisk hornet]

hey guys. where can i run mysql commands in attackboxes?

is there a directory?

[craggy copper]

you should be able to run them in the terminal

[brisk hornet]

yeah i suppose 😄 it says that can't find mysql command

though

[craggy copper]

have you tried doing man mysql

if nothing appears or it says mysql doesnt exist

that means it isnt installed

[brisk hornet]

it seems like it isn't. but it is suppose to be. anyway i tried that too, it can't locate the package to install mysql which might be usual for attackboxes (not giving permission to download and install)

[fiery knoll]

Any chance I could snag some openvpn help? I'm connected to VPN and get an IP address, but I'm not able to connect to/ping the box I've deployed

[wind wedge]

What room?

[fiery knoll]

Advent of Cyber 2. Just started it and trying to do day 1. Does it have to be done on the attackbox?

(I also had an issue with the nmap room yesterday but restarting the box seemed to fix it)

[wind wedge]

No you can do it on your vm

Have you tried redeploying the box?

[fiery knoll]

I have, twice now

I can get to the gateway on the tun0 but it doesn't seem to route beyond that

[wind wedge]

weird, try this

!vpnscript

[sharp bison]

From TryHackMe with ❤!

[fiery knoll]

Didn't return any errors

And the web interface shows the vpn ip address for the tun0 adapter

[wind wedge]

Have you tried regenerating your config file?

[fiery knoll]

I have

And the box is accessible from the attack box as well, it just seems my machine can't reach it

[wind wedge]

What about switching server?

[fiery knoll]

I'll give that a go

[eager fulcrum]

@fiery knoll Can you access http://10.10.10.10 ?

[fiery knoll]

Ok, switching networks worked

[eager fulcrum]

I bet it was just giving it a little longer to boot.

[fiery knoll]

@eager fulcrum I didn't try before switching but I doubt it. I was on US East and the connection died at 10.6.0.1

No it was up in the attack box and the ping still failed

I'll try to poke around with it more later and see if I can recreate it

[verbal hamlet]

@eager fulcrum what should I do to connect if openvpn protocol is blocked in my country with a Good DPI ?

literly all VPN protocols are blocked even wireguard

[eager fulcrum]

@verbal hamlet Subscribe and use the attackbox.

We're not going to help you break the law

[verbal hamlet]

oh well, guess you guys are very helpful, thanks for your reply

[brazen flint]

Hi there, guys. I was trying metasploit. Instead of using an attack box, I was trying to use metasploit via WSL. When I run 'msfdb init' i get a
System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate.
Failed to connect to bus: Host is down

Is there anyway to fix that and use Metasploit via WSL? Or should I just use an attackbox / VM?

[eager fulcrum]

@brazen flint that's more of a general question, please ask in #infosec-general about getting msf working on wsl.

[brazen flint]

Thanks for the guidance. I'm pretty new to all of this. I just saw #site-support and thought to ask here. Going to #infosec-general now

[devout ferry]

why does my monitor only support hdr videos but not games?
i don't get it lol

[placid mango]

Wrong channel. Ask in #general .

[tidal skiff]

Hello, I am a complete beginner in the second room of Linux essentials. I am trying to SSH into the vm. However, my OpenVpn keeps infinitely connecting no matter what I do. I have tried recreating my configuration file, changing the server multiple times, and restarting my computer. Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.

[placid mango]

Can you show screenshot?

[tidal skiff]

Infinitely doing this

[placid mango]

Is openvpn blocked in your country?

[tidal skiff]

No.

[placid mango]

`• Press regenerate, wait 30s and then try downloading again

• Change VPN server and try downloading again

• Log out of your account and log back in.`

Do this and try again.

[cosmic bramble]

broad question: i'm on the telnet step of https://tryhackme.com/room/networkservices and while ive finally gotten the one open port to display, on this scan and several others I get an issue with the SYN stealth scan portion of my nmap scan (nmap -A -p- -vv [ip])
slows down to increasing in .01% increments with time remaining increasing infinitely and i'm unable to find the cause or a way to prevent it

[tidal skiff]

wait

Dark elf what is regenerate

for what

[cosmic bramble]

worth mentioning, running openVPN ontop of ExpressVPN because im currently living in china

[tidal skiff]

oh nvm

Its still not working

changed server and regenerated, and logged out and logged back in

[placid mango]

You have any other vpn running?

[tidal skiff]

nope
