@zealous yoke might need a boost on day 20?

median wyvern
#

even commands on this box are slow! lol

#

yeah, boot in memory or something. Massive lag

eager fulcrum
#

Are you subscribed?

#

And is day 20 a windows vm?

median wyvern
#

not a paid subscriber no. Yeah, Windows

eager fulcrum
#

Yeah so that'll want a resource boost. Cmn should be able to do that happily.

The badges are being retired for various reasons - Housekeeping, Screen-space, impossible to achieve, room updates aswell as various administrative reasons. Save the badges you want to keep and keep an eye out for new and exciting badges and achievements in the coming year!

More badges will be added, don't worry!

i dont really know but it might be that they did the room in the month it came out

subtle nova
#

but in the help i found this "Old challenge rooms (not released this month) will give you 25% of the points to your monthly score and 100% to your all-time score."

graceful garden
#

Thats only in relation to the leaderboards

trim moat
#

it all depends on when the room was released, usually the chart there only shows the first ones to answer

graceful garden
#

If somone has earned more point on the room, that usually means they were the first to solve it or 'Get blood'

subtle nova
trim moat
subtle nova
#

so some rooms can have top 10 gets additional points

#

it depends on the room creator ??

#

ok tnx for all info

trim moat
#

there are multiple factors that go into the point system and how they are awarded

I cant seem to load hosted sites from multiple rooms with a deployed server. i.e. I am connected through openVPN, i deploy the server, i can ping the server, IP address in the browser(Firefox and chrome) address bar results in the page starting to load(title loads and some resources load) but stalls. I can create an attack machine on THM and access the site no problem..... appreciate any ideas to help me solve this.

hi!

#

started doing THM about 20 days ago and i hav a macbook with 10GB of storage left

#

is that fine?

#

i think i have trouble doing some tasks because i need to learn different commands

graceful garden
#

Hiya fish - I'm not sure if theres a question there. I should mention though, this channel is for technical issues with the THM site and the VPN.

#

But yes, you can participate with the setup you have

#

The worst case - You can use the Browser-based attackbox to tackle the rooms. As for the difficulty - Well, Thats why we are a learning platform πŸ™‚

pearl cloud
#

Hey need some help, so I have been using the attackbox from the browser but it is slow like very slow. Wanted to ask if I subscribe will it be any better. For anyone who would advice me to use the vpn option my question would be what is the best server to connect with for those who stay in Africa mostly a country known as Kenya

eager fulcrum
#

If you subscribe then the attackbox will deploy with more resources

#

Some of it is going to be your internet connection

pearl cloud
#

Will it be fast mostly when using burpsuite

pearl cloud
eager fulcrum
#

CPU, RAM

#

And it'll have internet access

pearl cloud
#

like what are the Specs difference

eager fulcrum
#

Off the top of my head, no idea.

pearl cloud
#

Okay will subscribe for three months then try it out then.

dusk thicket
#

so I don't really have a technical question or anything but I do have a question in regards to the student discount. Do I need to sign up with the .edu domain account or can I continue to use my current account that I have?

eager fulcrum
dusk thicket
#

and then when I go to subscribe i'll get the discount?

eager fulcrum
#

Should do. If not, email support

thanks!

#

Are you in a country that blocks OpenVPN like Egypt or China?

Try a different server from the drop-down then

how to do that or u mean like the other eu server and usa

From the drop down list on the access page

Select another server, download your config, and use that config

i'm in the network services module, doing a scan for telnet with the switches needed

This isn't really a THM issue, but I can't for the life of me get my own modules to load in metasploit. I've even tried the method on offsec's site, and still doesn't work.

If it isn't a THM issue and you acknowledge that, why are you posting it in a support channel that is specifically for THM related issues?

eager fulcrum

Well it specifically pertains to the "Steel Mountain" box.

Hey guys. I'm having trouble with OpenVPN, I'm running it through VMWare using Kali and I keep getting "TLS Error: TLS Handshake Failed" when trying to connect. I've read the documentation and it hasn't helped me, I've disabled my router firewall while trying to connect and that did nothing. I am currently running the VM using a bridged connection but NAT and Host Only didn't work for me either. Any suggestions here?

@eternal coral try a different VPN server

^Having errors with openvpn too here.
Worked fine until yesterday when i got disconnected repeatedly (reinitialization took some minutes then i was back in for a few minutes). Decided i should redownload the certificate and now nothing works at all :/
I used the EU-1 server previously but when i click download now i get a 404..
I then switched to EU-2 and regenerated the ca (also waited several minutes as previously suggested in this channel), downloaded the file but when run, i get

OpenSSL: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line
OpenSSL: error:140AD009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file:PEM lib
Cannot load inline certificate file

which seems to hint at the config file not being valid..
Switching back to EU-1 and regenerating still returns 404 :/
Lastly tried US-Eastern ca which works but websites of the boxes won't load..

I know other ppl who still can download their EU-1 ca just fine so any idea how to fix this?

naive dust
#

@proven copper may i ask you, have you been editing/adding anything in the firewall options to make the openVPN work, before it started crashing?

eager fulcrum
#

You shouldn't need to

#

Seeing as it doesn't open any ports

naive dust
#

Well yes, that seems reasonable. Although, I've found that some people had to make changes in order to make it work

can i rest the room

Its part of the game. I'm not going to award points for just completing the informational, am I?

and hack it again to make it marked as finished

The point re-balance is platform wide or just specifically to MrRobot CTF?

Greetings, I just joined this discord with some questions about points. Partly asked/answered by the question of D3za$t3r up here, there has been a point redesign and questions without answers do not give points anymore since about a year ago, got it.

Ok, good to know. Thanks for the quick reply!

One additional question, the Fowsniff CTF room (https://tryhackme.com/room/ctf) has almost all questions without answer, even questions that have a clear answer (Using nmap, scan this machine. What ports are open?). Not sure if this is the right channel, but maybe that room should have a redesign? I thought about asking the room author but since the room is says the machine is used with permission, suggesting that the machine author might not have made the room, I'm not 100% sure who to ask...

Yeah it's an old room

Why do you think something is wrong?

naive dust
#

I have asked earlier, but no one seems to have an answer. I'm getting the TLS handshake error, when I try to connect with vpn.

#

So I'm just checking things

eager fulcrum
#

Make sure your system time is correct

#

If you're connecting from a country that blocks openvpn like Egypt or China you're out of luck.

#

Otherwise, try a different VPN server

Ah well...Been trying with the EU-Regular, and it seems the VIP works..

Hi everyone. New to platform this week. If I'm in a room that has me deploy and room and run commands (like netcat or gobuster), is there a way for me to open a shell session into that deployed room OR do I have to open attack server and work from there. I have OpenVPN working fine. I can ping deployed machine, I have no problem connecting to attack server. Thanks

eager fulcrum
#

You need your own machine to use for it

#

Like a kali VM or the attackbox

#

The while point of the VMs that you deploy in rooms is to hack into them

#

You don't get given a shell on most of them.

Thanks. I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something obvious.

Hello guys,

Not sure if it's a bug but you room https://tryhackme.com/room/steelmountain# seems to be buggy, at least for me.

I deployed the machine and there should be a web server running on port 8080 that is accessible via web-browser as confirmed by a write up.

Restarting the machine didn't work out.

Please let me know what the issue might be.

Hello guys. IΒ΄m doing the Internal room and everytime I write an URL. i get this error:

#

The URL redirects to this one

#

I can not see any website

#

Is this a common problem?

eager fulcrum
#

Well, you haven't done something that you need to do

#

Add it to /etc/hosts.

Hello

#

Need some assistance with my first deployment

placid mango
#

@flint island no need to use vpn if you are using Attackbox.

flint island
#

Currently need an idea about attackbox

placid mango
#

Huh?

flint island
#

What’s attackbox

placid mango
#

It's a machine pre loaded with basic tools you'll need for hacking.

flint island
#

got it now thanks man✌️

naive dust
#

Ugh

#

@naive dust if you're so happy over there then why are you here

Advent of Cyber, Day 23. Whenever I try to RDP with Remmina I get [ERROR][com.freerdp.core.connection] - Timeout waiting for activation. Been trying for a couple days and once got in once, and it was incredibly slow. The colour depth is correct. Any thoughts? All the other boxes worked (although all the RDP ones were a bit slow)

@hallow valve have you tried switching server? Also wait a min or two after clicking regenerate and then download config.

If you are receiving a 404 error after attempting to download the OpenVPN Configuration file please try these steps:

β€’ Press regenerate, wait 30s and then try downloading again

β€’ Change VPN server and try downloading again

β€’ Log out of your account and log back in.

bronze vale
#

Well first

#

You should run the command without switching to root first imo

#

And second

random shadow
#

I just reinstalled my system and this is happening

bronze vale
#

Follow the stops above but wait 2 minutes after regenerating rather than 30 seconds

random shadow
#

I tried switching to kali

random shadow
#

Same error on non root users

bronze vale
#

It’s not your user

#

It’s the files

#

File*

#

As you can see it says β€œcannot load inline cert” or somet

random shadow
#

Ya

bronze vale
#

Just means your file is missing something important

random shadow
#

So I should regenerate

bronze vale
#

Follow the steps

#

They should work

random shadow
#

Okay let me try

#

It's working thanks

Hello guys, I am doing the room 'Upload Vulnerablities' however the servers are quite slow. The first and second exercices everything were working well. However now when I try to access any website: overwrite.uploadvulns.thm, shell.uploadvulns.thm, java.uploadvulns.thm annex.uploadvulns.thm, magic.uploadvulns.thm or jewel.uploadvulns.thm, I have a time out. Everything is setup well, OpenVPN, the command to allow to have access to those websites with the ip of the active machine. Any idea how I can solve it?

woeful dome

Anyway solving this issue

@gritty surge have you put overwrite.uploadvulns.thm these in hosts file?

Has anyone complained about the speed of the rooms today?

working well sorry*

bronze vale

Are you able to manually go to the webpage

gritty surge
#

1 of 5 times yes but very slow

#

most of the time "Server Not Found"

bronze vale
# serene granite

You need to run it before you can troubleshoot using the troubleshoot script.

sudo openvpn filename.ovpn, if that doesn't work then screenshot the error and send it here

gritty surge
#

I opened again the openvpn

#

it is working

bronze vale

You have multiple tun's @gritty surge

Try a different server, I don't kknow if it's blocked in your country

serene granite

how can i know which servers blockked?

bronze vale
#

It would be the openvpn service

#

I'm not sure how to check

maybe, ping server_ip ?

On task 9 of https://tryhackme.com/room/windows10privesc it asks us to run winexe but this program does not exist on the THM Attack box. I've tried googling some and there are a few ancient tips on how to install it on Ubuntu 12.04 which uses now dead links. It looks like quite the job to get it to run on the THM attack box. Am I missing something / could it be added to the box?

eager fulcrum
#

If so, spin up a THM Kali or use your own VM?

hazy matrix
#

the THM attack box is ubuntu

#
Linux ip-10-10-206-102 4.15.0-117-generic #118-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 4 20:02:41 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux```
eager fulcrum
#

Because it seems like you didn't.

#

I'm aware that it's ubuntu.

hazy matrix
#

ah running a kali in the box you mean

eager fulcrum
#

wat

hazy matrix
#

The THM box I get when I launch the attack box is always ubuntu, never kali

#

I guess I could use openvpn from inside a kali VM on my local machine, but I was sort of assuming that all rooms be compatible with running them from the attack box as well

eager fulcrum
#

Otherwise, use your own VM.

hazy matrix
#

never saw that it was a dropdown πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

eager fulcrum
#

You should re-verify with the bot btw

#

Does the AttackBox come with Nessus installed?
