i need to do more research ?
so i know where to land my questions here
and not bounce between channels. i apologize
Well it’s not that hard to read channel descriptions especially when you’ve been told many times
I know I've been told this many times, that is because I don't know much so I don't know which room my questions should be appropriately addressed in
again, i apologize
Can we keep the chat in here tech-support related please.
EU-Regular-1 still not working, EU2 goes fine but slower
how to connect kali linux to wiifi using dual boot?
sure thanks
hey, anyone can hint about GraphQL room - Task 6 Challenge ?
Ask in #room-hints .
hey who can help me
idk how to look through open sources
i wanted to know if this MC Client was malware
This channel is for tech-support regarding issues with the site (tryhackme.com) or VPN connectivity (yet again, regarding THM).
so who can i ask about this
you might be able to upload the files to https://virustotal.com to check
VirusTotal
yeah i still dont know
Is there dark mod for the site?
No.
ok 
Hey I have a question, I have been trying to connect to the VPN and it connects fine, but after some time the connection always drops and I see that it restarts. Is there anything I can do to prevent this? I have changed servers 2 times now and it is still happening.
hi i have an issue with the VPN connection, any help pls?
now when i download the config file again, it's request a html file
please try these steps:
• Press regenerate, wait 30s and then try downloading again
• Change VPN server and try downloading again
Hi team, I have a question, until couple of days I was able to see 7 or more on the flame sign but today I see on 1
is there a reason for losing it ?
didn't get your point
There's two systems so it's hard to explain
But basically you left it too long before answering a question
So you lost your streak
me too will lose it, i can't access my vpn!, help?
so, you mean if I working in a room and start the VM then lift the question without putting an answer
0-12-20 02:18:51 TLS: Initial packet from [AF_INET]3.104.196.208:1194, sid=f6287dfb 282dc832
2020-12-20 02:19:50 TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity)
2020-12-20 02:19:50 TLS Error: TLS handshake failed
what i can do with this network connectivity?i am using vmware
No.
@feral frigate You need to correctly answer a question for your streak to continue and you need to answer it before midnight
(if you're on the new system)
Oh I forgot AB testing
Not AB testing
Isn't it?
Oh oof
yeap I got email for that last week
If you have correctly set your timezone it will expire if you haven't answered a question that day before midnight
If you haven't set your timezone then you need to answer a question 24 hours after your last question answered
E.g. if you answer a question @ 2pm on Monday, you need to answer one before 2pm on tuesday
hmmmm. so i need to keep my progress on the platform to keep the streak UP
For all users enquiring about the streak system:
As of 20/12/2020, there are two systems in place.
If you have correctly set your timezone on your account, your streak should reset every single day at 00:00 (Midnight). This means you must answer a question before midnight every day in order to maintain your streak - to be safe, try to answer two questions which require answers to be inputted.
If you have not yet set a timezone on your account, there is a chance you are using the old system. This means that your streak will reset everyday 24 hours after your last question answered. For example, if you answer a question at 2pm on Monday, you need to answer one before 2pm on Tuesday.
If your streak has disappeared and you have answered a question before the time of expiry/ there is an issue with your streak please email support: support@tryhackme.com
@bronze vale VPN problems!!?
Are you from egypt or another country that blocks openvpn?
You're unable to use OpenVPN then as your country blocks it. I'd suggest using your free hour of the Attack Box in order to communicate with the TryHackMe machines.
thanks
Just to add - your free hour will replenish daily :)
Try regenerating your configuration script or try a different region... doubt it will work
and it works now!!!!!!!!
wut
i do't know what this, but works without changing anything!
Should I send a email to support? I check spam etc
Sending email to support@tryhackme.com would be the best thing to do
Thanks email sent
Hey guys, the vpn connection has been really slow lately. I’ve been having problems with ssh’ing into boxes and typing in commands because of the lag. Is there anyway to work around this?
hey so i made the mistake of closing my web machine before my hour was up so i decided to get open vpn. I download it, and when i go to open it nothing happens. im on mac 10.15
I have experienced the same issue that “zouvier”. The connection is lagging and sometimes I keep being disconnected from target machines when remotely connected to them ( windows target) or when trying to access some of the websites for some of the rooms.
is it possible i downloaded an outdated version? it didnt give any errors just wont open
yep that was the problem
wait i got the connect app, all its giving me is statistics. Do i have to wait for tmmrw to open my web machine agian?
ok so ive done some digging it says to open a machine
The attackbox is totally seperate
The VPN is so that you can use your own machine, in this case your mac or a VM on that mac
oooh
That becomes the machine you use to attack
so i would use the terminal on my mac?
You'd use whatever
I recommend making your own Kali VM to be honest
Then you have all the tools
Run the VPN directly in the VM if you do that
alr
now i gotta figure out how to make that
good practice for research ig
no, i just downloaded vbox tho
So this is marked as free, but when I click it I'm informed that there's an additional charge to use throwback. It'd be nice if that was more apparent upfront. :c
It's not free. That's a bug.
I had a feeling, its why I'm sharing this to yall.
I can't afford throwback right now anyway, so I guess I won't be able to complete the series yet.
Hello everyone, I am currently working on Linux Fundamentals part 2 and I am having trouble using Putty. It won't connect to the provided IP address and says 'connection timed out'. Could someone help me to set up the connection?
Please?
My OS is Windows 10
Are you connected through vpn?
Aye, you can't access machines without connecting to the vpn unless you use in browser machines.
Thank you!
Hi, is there a way to see all your deployed machines?
Seems i reached my limit :p
Nvm. Found it
hey guys I have been facing openvpn issues too earlier it used to work fine, i tried changing the region and regenerating my code but still it gives the TLS error (check your network connection). My internet is working fine I'm able to access other websites. Please help.
!vpnscript
tried this but no luck please see the below error: +] Stable internet connection
[+] OpenVPN is installed
[-] tun0 interface does not exist
Would you like the script to attempt a connection automatically (Y/n)? Y
[+] Connecting....
[Warning!] Connection process is taking longer than expected to complete
[-] Failed to connect @placid mango
Try switching server wait 30 seconds then click regenerate again wait a min and download it and see if that works or not.
Hey. I am playing Advent of Cyber 2 and I keep getting notifications my box is about to expire when it's not. My guess is the notifications comes from previous deployed and then terminated VMs.
It's a known bug with the timer. The countdown only takes into account the first hour even if you have more hours left
If you refresh the page, you'll get back the machine's IP and your actual remaining time
Tried this but still no luck 😦 Checked firewall as well no issues from there
Is openvpn blocked in your country? Also, show screenshot of terminal.
@feral frigate Hey there :)
Could you try avoiding telling people how to evade any form of blocking that an ISP has put in place.
Especially as the user’s country blocks OpenVPN.
any tech support online
What do you need help with?
You need to open john on your vm not the targets
vpn used to work before, also please see the error screenshot
Which server are you on?
Hello i need some help here
im trying to share some files from windows to linux. Windows side is ready with the files i want to share in a folder. Ubuntu's side is kinda ready all i need to do is type the command sudo mount.cifs -v -o username=myusername //myip/Share /media/testing.
whenever i type it it tells me to enter the password of the windows user and i type it (its the password of the microsoft account).
and then i get an error: mount error(13): Permission denied
the password is 100% correct since im tried using it to log into the microsoft account and it worked.
@north quartz ask in #general or #infosec-general cause this channel is for vpn and other tech related questions related to tryhackme.
sorry my bad
iv been waiting for apache guacamole to connect to the "post-exploitation basisc" room for 20+ minuts now, is it a room that takes long to boot or is there a issue i should be aware of ? 🙂
EU-Regular-1
Okay, try this one more time switch to au or us server wait a min click regenerate again wait a min and download the config and see if you can connect or not.
iv waited almost 40 minuts and the quacamole connection still isnt established, despite the server is seen as up, in the room.
This is not tryhackme related. is just that i want to join the voice chat but i cant because of this
Click on the voice channels arrow
A friend of mine has the same problem. We tried Pickle Rick and Overpass and both webservers took him really long to load. In some cases he coulndt load the website at all. We already tried the VPN troubleshoot script you provide but it didnt help either. It said everything was alright
Do not know how but i lost my streak i think i answered within 24 hrs but can i get ny streak back i was on 20 or 21 days
Pls
i had a similar issue. you can email support for help
their email is hello@tryhackme.com
Hello, I am working on ccPentesing and I have deployed the machine, but how do I access it? I am connected via VPN
Follow the instructions in the room
You're not given access to most VMs.
You usually have to hack your way in.
Got it. Thank you.
Hello! Where can I change my country in my profile? Thanks.
Hello, recently I have some problems, When I deploy any ip of any room and try to acess them the page only stay loading
I'm connecting via vpn
Not all machines run webservers
Therefore you cannot just put the IP into your browser and expect it to work.
I'm talking about the machines that have webservers
Like task 5 from OWASP top 10 room
Fix your VPN then, and make sure you don't have burp intercepting
!vpnscriot
!vpnscript
I'll try
Just curious if there is anyone here that can help with why I keep getting my streak reset. I work through at least one question a day and this is the second time my streak has reset to 0. Extremely frustrating. Not sure if this is where I should address this. Tried on the site, didn't find anywhere to contact.
Today I've answered multiple questions and it just shows 0.
whenever i try to ssh connect to a host i just end up getting a message that my connection timed out any way to fix it?
Connect to the VPN.
Just a quick question, how can I change the country next to my Level?
The new Nessus room is not giving me points, is this expected behavior?
Hello, I was doing the Day 2 challenge "The elf strikes back"
I have successfully uploaded and located my payload on the server but everytime I execute it my listener gives me this error-
Apologies for the terrible screenshot but yeah I can't get the flag and I couldn't find any relevant information to fix this
I have checked the port and ip in the reverse_payload which is correct
Issue resolved ✅
@eager fulcrum Hope you happy
Hello🖐️I have a question regarding AOC2 Day 19's Task. The IP I am getting after deploying the target machine is hosting The "Nice or Naughty list" website on port 80. So what computer is localhost pointing to? If it is pointing/refering to the same machine (which I assume it is not), how is it returning a different response when I am accessing it using the Proxy param rather than returning the same page as a response?
solved: regenerated the config file (the next day)
ca for certificate ? what certificate ?
what do i do?
Sahil - Can you use #bot-commands if you are doing.. well, Bot commands
Pardon me 🙏🙏

Hello, I have a quick question!
Is there a way to filter the rooms you've joined but haven't completed yet?
@urban moth Whats your issue
Yes there’s a button next to the search bar which says “filter completed”
@bronze vale my issue is regarding the room i submitted approx 4 months back
What about it
@zealous yoke was the one who reviewed it and rejected it once...after i updated the machine ..and submitted the room again
Please stop pinging CMN
Indeed, but it then shows all the rooms available...
What I would like to find is the room I joined, but not completed yet (or even that I simply joined). Is there an option for that?
My rooms
https://tryhackme.com/rooms (click "Filter Completed")
sry my bad...
Thanks a lot!
@urban moth If you room was rejected, you’re going to have to wait for someone to pick up your room again and test it.
all the issues in the machine are rectified an CMN told he would look into it 2 months back..
CMN is extremely busy right now
the thing is the reason the machine got rejected is fixed
Your room is not the only room that has been submitted
and i really want the room to be published
All rooms but be retested after resubmission
its been 4 months 😩
Must*
I’m sorry, I understand but you’re going to have to continue to wait like everyone else
can u pls check if my room is there in the list .. chocolate factory
hi i need some help with the VPN in my machine
i download the file from web..but i try to install the openVPN in my machine and it`s not working
my problem
i hope you can understand from this
It looks like you haven't got your path to your ovpn file right. looks like its in /home/kali92/Downloads/
aehh ok.. to much time i dont use in my machine and im little forget it lol
anyone else having problems with the VMs being really unstable and crashing?
Would you like to elaborate?
I am in Linux: Local Enumeration and whenever I try to do the reverse shell, the VM goes down. Stops responding to pings for about 3-4 minutes before coming back and repeating process
Sounds more like a VPN issue, nobody has reported this before
I’ll report it to the THM Staff but in the mean time please try these steps:
• Run the VPNSCRIPT to try and highlight any possible issues
• Switch VPN Servers
• Try other machines
• Make sure you have a stable internet connection
thank you
it's probably an openvpn issue but i can't find the solution anywhere. whenever i try to connect to the openvpn server i get this after 60 seconds. i am using a kali linux vm. using network in bridged mode, but other options seem to have the same effect. i am able to use the internet but connecting openvpn gives me this in console.
2020-12-21 12:55:53 TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity)
2020-12-21 12:55:53 TLS Error: TLS handshake failed
oh
it appears EU-Regular-2 was just down as EU-Regular-1 does work
How do you setup your time-zone for the streaks?. I try looking around on profile and access and couldn’t find anything.
When did you first register?
Hi
Very often I lost the connection to the box I'm deploying and I need to relaunch the vpn to make it works. I tried with different box and the problem append with all of them. Do you have any idea what I can make ? There nothing on openvpn log
it`s have different between EU-Regular-2 to 1?
idk what to do
for IL?it`s matter?
ok
both ?
That wasn't directed at you.
The phrase 'not working' provides us with no context or information about what's going on. Please provide that context?
yeat
Not 'home'
Tab completion is magic
ill use it

[-] Fatal Error: Inline Certificate is invalid
Please regenerate your VPN config on the access page (https://tryhackme.com/access)
If errors persist, change server then regenerate the config.
If all else fails, ask for further assistance on the TryHackMe Discord server, subreddit or forums.

Hello..I have a question about a badge. I completed the Common Linux Enum room, but my badge is not showing. I may not have clicked on the right place after I completed the room. How can I claim it?
Not all rooms award a badge.
under your profile there is a badges option, check there
Thank you. I see the profile and I see my other badges, but I think that after I completed the room, I did may have not clicked on claim the badge.
Good afternoon Is there a way to set up the VPN on Kali to use the network menu as opposed to running the openvpn config every time I want to connect?
Probably but the network manager is broken so don't
Just make an alias for it
thmvpn or something
The network manager adds bad routes and breaks your internet connection
NOD Thanks for the tip and the heads up.
So is there any way to claim the badge if I missed it?
precisely what room? Link it please.
Thank you... So to clarify, even though I can see a badge in this page https://tryhackme.com/badges
That does not mean a badge will always be awarded, correct?
That's a list of all the badges
https://tryhackme.com/room/linuxprivesc is the one with the badge
AHHh...I see it now. Thank you. I was looking at the badge 😄
I appreciate the response .
One last question, a while back, I read that we would be able to change our public profile name. Is that change still coming?
Email support@tryhackme.com to make that happen
Fantastic. Thank you so much for your help. Have a great day 🙂
Hey, I'm having that problem TLS handshake fail . As per post in pins, I've followed the steps the best I can, software firewell exception , checked router config page,
changed proto udp -> proto tcp ; read it in a post some cheap routers don't handle udp packets properly or smth. What else I can try / check?
when changed to tcp, it gave a failed error msg, ends with unkown reasons so changed config back to udp
That won't work as THM's VPN servers do not have TCP enabled
hm, makes sense so
Are you in a country that blocks OpenVPN like egypt?
I'm in Egypt, but no idea that it does so
quoted Egypt blocks TCP and UDP for OpenVPN. However, the TCP port 443 used for TSL encryption is employed by HTTPS. ... You can direct your OpenVPN through this port and the government won’t be able to find out.. from https://thevpn.guru/egypt-openvpn-ban-bypass-how
Ok, 2 things
But then the server won't connect with tcp
- We're not going to help you as it's illegal
- THM's servers aren't listening for VPN connections on 443 or TCP at all
Hello all
I gained 3000 points this month and i only have 480 in leaderboard why?
because there are 479 people that have more points than you
if you mean monthly leaderboard, you don't get full points in the monthly leaderboard from rooms released before the current month
No in my country there is not 479 people on tryhavkme
Where are you seeing 480?
Exactly where, and exactly what does it say?
Are your talking about the monthly leaderboards having a different score than your global score?
Rooms that were released in previous months only give you 25% of their point value to the monthly leaderboards
All points you get are added to your ‘All-time’ score, however not all points are added to your ‘Monthly’ score (which is reset to 0 on the last day of the month 23:59 GMT). You only get 100% of a room's monthly points if a room has been released during that month; you get 25% of challenge room points if its not released in this month. This stops new users being able obtain large amounts of points as they have more rooms to solve than older users - by monthly points only being awarded if a room is released this month, everyone has a fair chance to be number 1 on the ‘Monthly’ leaderboard and everyone has an equal chance to be number 1 on the ‘All-time’ leaderboard.
If you want the highest amount of points then that's be the best way to gain them i guess
i'm having issue while running spider attack in burp suite . it's way to slow and theres no issue with network or connection . any help or FIX ?
@paper snow #infosec-general
hi, the days strike is stillbased on 24 hours ? I received an email saying that the policy changed, but loks like I lost my strike even I did tasks yesterday,
A free user can start AttackBox once per day. What is the Time Zone when the day starts?
It's either UTC, or 24 hours since you last deployed/it terminated
One of the two
Thanks!
Wut
to bypass safe exam browser
Number one, that’s not related to tryhackme, number two, sounds unethical
Hello, I cannot SSH login to the day 20 (task 25). I tried it yesterday for about 10 minutes and it has been 23 minutes and I still can't do a login
relaunch the machine... wait for 5 min
since it is windows box
it is slow
Okay
Yeah so I redeployed and it won't connect. It's been over 5 minutes
have you entered correct cmd & passwd
I literally copied the ssh command bc of of insecurity 😂

Hello. I just enrolled to the Linux Fundamentals 1, and when I click on Access in browser, a tab opens with a blank page. I'm using Parrot OS, tried to SSH to the remote machine with the given IP address, no feedback comes from doing so.
- re-download the THM vpn file
- do
sudo openvpn <your vpn file >
i did it millions of time
now im trying on windows 10
I have dual boot so I switched to windows
the same errors on windows, just in a GUI environment
Are you connected through vpn? You can't access deployed machines without connecting to it. Or you can use inbrowser machines.
I'm running AnonSurf, the only way for me to get an Internet access. Everytime I stop it, it just doesn't connect to the Internet. I tried accessing through the inbrowser machine, but it kept displaying a blank page.
Well, you have to fix that connection problem first then. 🙂
I'm forced to subscribe in this case to circumvent this issue. Thanks.
It looks like vm problem which can be solved or you can use Kali. Cause I remember having same problem with Parrot iirc.
guys, the closest server to me is the european one, I tried both, didn't workz but now I am connected to the US one, how is that even logic
Switch to Europe and wait min before downloading config.
I am confused and kind of lost, but It worked atleast
Im okay with US because europe isn't working since yesterday
thanks anyways
I'm not running a VM from my machine. I just wanna figure out what's blocking the contents from being displayed on my machine.
Let's move this to #infosec-general . 🙂
yo cypher, it might be a dumb suggestion, but in bad countries like mine, using a vpn and changing the DNS server, fixes alot of internet problems, so maybe try that first
Gonna try something before terminating that session over there; changing identity on AnonSurf.
Wrong channel. Ask in #general or #infosec-general .
Hi, may I ask some details on update-timezone URL, for the backend part?
Does it detect the timezone from the browser or detects from the public IP address? As in if I manually change the timezone of my browser will it reflect in the update-timezone url?
Is this the right channel to ask this question?
Hello there, I am having problem with day 21. I'm unable to connect to the target machine. I spent my 2 hours fixing yesterday and 3 hours today but nothing worked. What is happening with tryhackme? I'm very dissapointed!!
Hi there!
Yesterday i thought that maybe because of the traffic i'm unable to connect to the Day 21 target machine but today also it isnt working
As nothing seems to have been massively reported about these I will provide a few steps for you to carry out and do some self trouble-shooting. While you are doing that, I'll ask one of our wonderful room-testers/ community volunteers to see if there is an issue with the room (if not, I will carry this out myself).
Please try the following:
Run the VPN script,
Change VPN servers,
Try performing the tasks in the attackbox,
Make sure you are not just pinging the machines (they may not respond to pings) try other things like nmap scans with the flag -Pn,
Deploy other rooms to make sure they are working.
The things you have mentioned, honestly i have tried all of this!!!
After speaking to a community volunteer, they said the machine is slow and will require a lot of patience.
I'm embarrassed i had to submit the ans through the video.
I deployed the machine and waited for like till its end time and still it wasn't connected.
@zealous yoke Are you able to perform any troubleshooting on this machine when you're not too busy?
Howdy howdy
Sure thing
What's the IP address of the machine that you've got deployed in the room please? @hallow valve
Thanks <3
The one that's displayed here (although it'll be titled differently for you) @hallow valve
I have terminated that machine and doing other.
I did.
Ah okies, please let me know if you have any issues with that one
and if so, mind sharing the IP address of that one?
Just ping me 🙂 thanks @bronze vale
Hello guys can anyone help me with room eritsecurusi
Am getting 502 right after launching nikto or gobuster
#room-help and post a screenshot
Thank you @trim moat
Hello, maybe someone can help me. A friend of mine cant access any webservers in the rooms. He is connected to the vpn and also tried the vpn troubleshoot script but didnt get any errors
for example he can access robots.txt on the server but not the index.php
to CMNatic. Could you tell me if this connections issues are specific to rooms, or to the over all traffic at the site at a particular moment. As much as I enjoy THM, this is becoming a problem. If it has to do with traffic, then I can try to arrange my schedule for when there is less traffic. If a problem to specific rooms, then I can try other rooms till the issue is resolve. Any information will be helpful.
Help would be much appreciated we are struggling with this issue for multiple days now
Anyone aware of an issue with the Blue section under the beginner? I'm at the last part with flags, I found 2 of them, but even copy/pasting the text it's telling me they are wrong. I even checked a walkthrough, using the attackbox, same answers, but still saying they're wrong
Well, maybe with all the new customers, the issues of existing customers can be ignored. Time to reconsider my options. Good luck, THM. Enjoy your music on Spotify.
Maybe try refreshing the page and then submit those answers ?
I've done it a few times already, terminated the VM probably 6x now
as it started by not being able to find flag2, there is a note on that but I did it over and over, just wasn't sure if there was something wrong with the room itself
Like there is a screenshot
when I submit that, it says it's wrong
It says only to submit the contents only, those which are in curly brackets
Is the website currently experiencing any widespread issues? I am in the OWASP Top 10 room and I am trying to launch the AttackBox and its not doing anything
i did notice that its a not a bluebox with "AttackBox" label anymore, it is a dropdown. Neither option works though
I have a Kali VM, but I'm running Burp Suite on my host. I'm trying to get the VM to proxy requests through burp on the host. Is there some additional config to allow the burp proxy to accept external requests?
@elder pendant #infosec-general
I'm having an issue with one of the room boxes. It deploys, and I can sometimes connect for a couple minutes, then it becomes unresponsive. https://tryhackme.com/room/commonlinuxprivesc
!vpnscript
And show the output in your terminal where you have the VPN running

nope, it's not... well, kinda -- trying to use Remmina through the VNC connection -- figured since I've been having issues with the keyboard, I imagine somebody in the THM community might be having the same issue
Then it doesn't go here.
#general @marble mist
That's not a screenshot, please take screenshots.
You need to click regenerate on the access page. Then wait 60 seconds. Then redownload your config.
If I move it over to the #general room, will I get warned again for "double posting?"
@eager fulcrum
You were literally told to go there
Please do
Please read the channel topics and familiarise yourself with the rules
just wanted to ask if i wrote the file directory stuff correct or not
I've told you what you need to do
Go do that.
Your ovpn file is broken
You need to follow those steps
i did it ......now am i supposed to repeat these steps
i wasnt getting this before .......... does this mean i got the vpn ?
is there any way i can know when its successfully connected
also i wanted to ask that as you asked me to take ss ..........so the ss gets saved in the kali box .....but i am using discord in windows ......so how do i send the ss here
for now i managed but what is the way you guys use
You can screenshot the hypervisor
Or use snipping tool
i am here sir
Are you in a country that blocks OpenVPN like Egypt?
no
Then check your system time
Check it. Make sure it's accurate to the second.
Try a different VPN server
Thank you like that?
👍 keep it up @eager fulcrum thankss a hell lot
I am connected via OpenVPN but i cannot ssh into my deployed machine. Im stuck in linux fundamentals part 2.
What is the IP of your deployed machine?
10.10.19.16
am i doing something wrong?
@true thorn You should be running the VPN directly in the VM, not on the host
i am
You're not, if you don't have a tun0 interface.
Please do not argue, it's frustrating and makes us not want to help you.
sorry didn't mean to
Can someone point me in the right direction with this problem? I don't understand why this path is incorrect.
@wide idol That is hackthebox
this is tryhackme's tech support channel for issues directly related to tryhackme
Try the HackTheBox server.
srry srry im new thanks
My THM says that I'm in Agent Sudo room but I can't leave nor join the room
I want to leave it btw
@naive dust #resources message
thanks 😇
@lone sierra email support@tryhackme.com
Hi,
While using the OWASP Top 10 room, I couldn't access the SQL Injection website in Task 7 from the AttackBox. Is this an issue on my end or with the room?
Thanks in advance.
i wrote this to accellerate the process of opening the vpn
vpn
it restarts every 5 minutes
hi..im in my job place and think to do some rooms from web..but i think the WiFi here is blocked to connect your VPN machine..its possible?
You can use the AttackBox for that.
or i should to ask the IT here?
That's also a good solution.
what do you mean?
The attackbox is a hosted linux machine for you to use to attack THM machines
Free users get 1 deploy (with 1 hour) per day of it
is in linux 20202.4?
Linux versions are not numbered like that.
You're thinking of Kali.
yeah kali
It is not kali. It has pentesting tools though.
ok thanks..i`ll speak with the IT here..thank you..have a good day
Not sure if it quite fits here, but I'm having some difficulty completing rooms because I'm running kali in virtualbox, and I can't get the shared clipboard to work despite trying everything I've seen suggested online
Can anyone help?
Ahh, tyty
hi guys i face problem with iron corp room i checked everything and my vpn is working i can access other machines but ironcorp machine is not accessible ... i deployed the machine 5 times but nothing work
i tried every thing here https://tryhackme.com/thread/5fe221bb91b4411c596bd27a
"not accessible"?
why can't i change my country on the site anymore?
i mean the host is dead when i bing it
i tried to visit the http
nothing worked
nmap scan tells me that the ip is dead
i tried other machines and they work
Yeah because you need -Pn
i tried several times
i told you
i tried every thing here https://tryhackme.com/thread/5fe221bb91b4411c596bd27a all things do not work
Nah, you're ignoring me
And making a huge assumption or two in the process
If you want help, listen. Otherwise, I'm out.
oooh
It's not likely to respond to pings so you need to use -Pn for nmap
-Pn to ignore bing ????
Secondly, it might not be running a http server on port 80
ok i will try that
I recommend learning how to use nmap properly before attempting medium rooms
i used -Pn before in bug bounty but in CTF's i don't use it
becouse i didn't faced a machine like this before all machines that i faced respond to ICMP packets even windows machines
Really? It's really common on THM for them not to, as it's a default firewall rule
am new to THM i was playing on HTB and vulnhub before
It's weird how I told you why like 10 minutes ago
and the solution a minute after that
And that would have saved you 10 minutes if you'd have done that instead of argue
WTF! it worked ...thank you
hhhhh Np i was confused because i didn't faced a machine in a CTF the don't respond to ICMP
Which is why I told you this information right at the start.
No
It's literally a default windows firewall rule
Which I also have said before
If you're going to ask for help, please be receptive and listen to the help you're given. It's really frustrating when people don't. @viscid comet
ok i will and thank you man you saved my time
@scarlet talon type ip a s tun0 and send output
ok
first, you closed your connection
you need to keep the openvpn running
open another terminal to do the work
ye
keep the sudo openvpn <ovpn file path> command running and open a new terminal to do the things you need to do
you're connected
ok when i am doing a course of tryhackme ..........what must be my LHOST
this is your ip in tryhackme network
the LHOST is the ip in the command you just executed, in this case 10.8.147.227
ah i see
this vpn creates a tunnel to connect you to the tryhackme network, the tun0 ip is the ip that you use to communicate with tryhackme, the LHOST is the local host, in a reverse shell for an example the machine needs to know where you are, in this case the machine in tryhackme network will know where you are with that tun0 ip
Hello @toxic python ! 

look right now as i am doing a msf course .......on deploying the machine .this is my ip basically this is my victim
now see this
Are you a subscriber?
the ip in this picture is the ip of the machine you are attacking, your ip is the one you get with the ip a s tun0 command
no
Then wait a little longer for it to boot, firstly.
when i enter the LHOST as tun0 .....this is what i get
No
you setted lhost on multi/handler
You need to set it when you have icecast selected
i followed this guys instruction
@rigid oxide People keep getting this confused. Can you (or muir) look at adding some clarification or removing any use of multi/handler from the start of RP metasploit please?
You're asking for help. Listen to us when we give you that help.
Otherwise, what the heck is the point of us telling you the solution if you're gonna argue with it?
sir i am trying to be clear as much as possible ....i never said i am not listening to you
yes just processing can you be more clear as to wdym by "You need to set it when you have icecast selected
No. I'm leaving.
there are "windows/http/icecast_header" and "multi/handler"
yes sir
as you can see in the picture you sent
when you have "multi/handler" selected it will show in your terminal
and when you have "windows/http/icecast_header" select it will show in your terminal also
you need to set the LHOST while you have icecast selected, not multi/handler
oh ok and should i enter the value of lhost as tun0 or should i juz write the whole ip
as far as ik tun0 acts like a shortcut value for our own ip
ok i will try it again by entering the lhost in while i have icecast selected as you told
hats off
@eager fulcrum its being redone already
Hii guys am having trouble connecting THM via vpn
its stuck at this
am not getting tunnel ip
i can fix it
i had the same problem
what you have you do it simply delete the vpn file ......go to the access page regenerate the file wait for 60 seconds and then change the server ........then download it and run
let me give it a shot
It worked; thanks man
@scarlet talon +rep
🤔 The "Attackbox" button is not showing upfor me in the dashboard. Is this the same for anyonee else?

Hey, I had a look around online to find an answer but I couldn't - is there any way to reset my account? Not just reset progress in a specific room. Thanks!
Send mail to hello@tryhackme.com with your username with a reason why you wanna reset it.
Alright, thanks 🙂
The metasploit room is on my to-do list (actually near to near top of it) to resolve this
when I turn on attack box and I try to open browser it will just load loop every site on Firefox browser
i Cant open tryhackme Google or everything else
mhm interesting
Ah!
You're not a subscriber, is that correct? @naive dust sorry to announce it as so
Yet...
but that didn't happend earlier when I used attack box
Ah! Yeah...non-subs don't have internet access on the subscriber box
Hey @naive dust are you gonna be around for the next few weeks?
yeah
May I DM?

Thanks!
!vpnscript
@flat plinth
guys i have a problem to connect my vpn access , could anyone help ?
i just sent it to ya
sudo?
Its says what u have to do
he elevated priviledges on the script
Show us the output when you try to connect in your terminal @flat plinth
Ok so wait for a bit
it's stuck since 20 min , and thanks for all who replayed and tried to help
So change server and try again like the script told you to.
Running openvpn on Linux.. how do i know or check it is working?
And yeah, I can't access 10.10.10.10
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>
!vpnscript
I am unable to resolve a problem in Linux fundamentals part 1, task 9
@opaque mango please go back to the room help channel unless this is now a tech support issue
If it is a tech support issue please ask your question directly and clearly. With screenshots.
Why are my machines terminating even before the timer runs out?
If they're windows machines, they die after an hour. It's a platform bug. It's being looked into. @kindred slate
I actually switched my discord account and deleted the old one, but still the THM bot is giving the token is used by someone
Hey, let me get this..
After I run : sudo openvpn /path-to-filr.ovpn on terminal...
When I go to tryandhackme/access it is suppose to show connected?
Ignore the access page. It is not reliable. @tiny marsh
Use http://10.10.10.10 to verify
@eager fulcrum ah okay. in some cases, when I refresh the page the machine is apparently still up.
Okay!
pls help anyone
There's only a limited number of people that can help. Everyone here is a volunteer. Please be patient. @violet vector
okay
@violet vector What's the old UID?
AbhiramBSN @barren birch
The account is completely deleted?
yeah now if I try to login using that email I get invalid creds @barren birch
Meanwhile, I think this runs smoothly
Please DM me your token
We'll have to remove it manually just now
You're not connected @tiny marsh
Notice how it says handshake failed and is restarting?
What could be wrong? Should I download another config file and try it?
My openvpn is up to date
Fun fact
Tryhackme is a lab environment
You can try things.
Troubleshoot independently too
What do you lose by trying it out yourself?
The answer is maybe a little bit of time. But it's useful experience.
Does my distance affect the server connection?? What's the best server to connect to from Africa??
Are you in Egypt? @tiny marsh
Nigeria
Ok. It's just that Egpyt block openvpn. Try some servers.
Distance shouldn't stop you from connecting entirely.
and what they should do to get connection ?
sorry it this replay
We cannot tell you how to bypass the restriction as that's against the law.
You can use the attackbox. You get 1 hour per day, or unlimited if you subscribe.
so you telling me that if anyone trying to connect from Egypt they can not because this illegal ?
Mehnn, I don't know what's really wrong and why I can't connect...
I mean it is basic 🤦♂️
The Egyptian government block it. We cannot tell you how to bypass that block, because that would be illegal.
does that mean that all the egyptian THM users are doing illegal stuff?
okay bro thanks for this information but i am not in Egypt 🙂 and my problem is like @tiny marsh , we have the same problem .
No.
You asked...
As you've BOTH been told, try a different server. You should also make sure your system time is accurate down to the second. @flat plinth @tiny marsh
there is no other solutions ? i did all of it and there no connection ? should i stop to use tryhackme because of such a problem ? this not cool
Those are some solutions. Try those. Please don't complain at people trying to help you. Everyone is a volunteer. It makes us not want to help you if you complain like that.
I understand. Thanks for all your help ninja
no bro i really didn't mean that i just wasted a lot of time to figure out what's wrong because it was working normally and then there is no connection and a little bit all of it bothering me , sorry me bro i didn't mean it
Please don't call me bro.
thanks for your help @eager fulcrum
hey ! is anyone having troubles with the pickle rick web room ? website doesent show up but I can see it's source code
yes @eager fulcrum I love u ❤️ !
can anyone help ? i tried to reconnect the vpn and also terminate and re start the thm machine, however i still not able to ping it, i tried to restart it many times and everytime it have different ip but i cant even ping it or do anything, im sure im connected to the vpn and already received an ip address for the vpn network
i tried to connect to 10.10.10.10 and it show my ip, however i cant ping machine i start on advent of cyber
Not all machines respond to pings
i tried to do nmap scan with -Pn but not working too
if you ping 10.10.10.10 and pings come back that means you are connected. If you are concerned about the ping, read what jabba said
You're going to have to supply screenshots of your nmap scan
my nmap just show starting nmap... and not showing anything , maybe i wait longer?
did you use -v flag? @tranquil dirge
Its takes longer when -Pn is supplied
And i mean a LOT longer
oh it works finally after wait a bit more time, thx btw
yesterday there was some problem (hilarity) with the swear filter, do I still have 4 warnings from yesterday?
-warnings @hard field
Total : 0
No Warnings
You do not.
thanks
when i ssh into a maschine after some time the terminal seems to freeze i cannot type for like 40 seconds and then it works again.
Does anyone know how to fix that?
It also happens when i tap out to my host and tap back in to my vm
I have the same thing happening
Hey, I've tried the free attack box, and wondered if this distro and setup is available as iso img
Think you can get similar by grabbing the latest kali rolling iso
It's ubuntu, and no
Hey, I would like to subscribe with the student offer. However, I already have an account with my normal email, and I want to keep it. Can you help me please ?
btw Keep up the project : It's insane 🙂
Yes you can just change the email
does it detect any school ?
Hi, as @eager fulcrum if it's a Windows machine we're looking into it. If it happens to be one, could you share the URL of the room so I can apply the fix please?
Usually yes
If not, email support@tryhackme.com
does a don't ban me it's for good "@ edu . itescia . fr" works ?
...1) why would I ban you
2) Try it and see
So this then
Do you know the delay for a response ?
No. Email and find out. There's no SLA.
❤️
@young gale hello, what problems are you having? Send screenshots and explain exactly what is going wrong in order for us to help you :)
How did you try to open it?
okay, are you doing the room https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn?
yes
it tells you you To connect to our network, you need to download the OpenVPN GUI open-source application and import your VPN configuration file.
you need to download the software called openvpn
i did
sudo openvpn mute999.ovpn
be in the directory of the file
what?
you need to use your terminal
i dont have a terminal
and there just execute sudo openvpn and the "file"
or i might hasve it
i think terminal is default in mac
should i stream it
yeah think so
Terminal.app
i got it!!!
woo
now?
what do i type on the terminal
that
i typed in sudo apt install openvpn
and it came up with password
whats the password
its says its wrong?
put it again
for my laptop or for the tryhack me password
laptoop
try again has to work
you need to have administrator rights to use sudo
my schoole befroe put this progam in where they could control my laptop and ye
before*
that may be it
haha
send screenshots
ok
ye
but dont send it if your password is in it
f
i'll be honest, i know almost nothing about mac
if your password isn't working you are probably typing it wrong
you need to type the exact password you use to log in to the comṕuter
oh nice
what now
just type openvpn to see if you have it downloaded
yeah imagine all this for nothing
i made a rlly emabarasing youtube video a long time ago and i was wondering if u can hack it and delete it
without the passwd is difficult
no, thats illegal
hhah
but its my account
type openvpn in the terminal
Bye.
we are here to help with vpn problems
They're gone
that was just weird
Unverified user, illegal hacking request
that was so strange
I recommend y'all verify
probs
Let's not throw around accusations like that.
Leave drama from other communities out of here please.
!docs verify
done
howdy, i got a problem with building a room running a dockerized application. locally just running in a vbox its running fine, as soon as the machine was uploaded to thm, it does not work anymore. the docker logs say: "osError: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address". i wrote to the thm support mail, and support advised me to ask for technical adive here. many thanks in advance 🙂
#infosec-general wait nvm
Did you assign the IP or interface specifically? @pale moat
Because AWS tears out the interfaces and replaces them
