Thank You
@lusty hill You're not by any chance in a country that blocks vpns?
If nothing works i was going to connect my mobile internet throught cable maybe a firewall on my modem somehow blocking it
No im using vpn sometimes on my phone
Are you in Egypt by any chance?
I live in istanbul
Seems like turkey blocks vpns
nah it doesn't i think
Hi i am new i have a question how i can learn hacking on mac book air (my english is bad)
Try #infosec-general
I was using vpn on my phone for accessing some websites sometimes
Ok, but you're on your computer not your phone
Like I said Turkey blocks vpns
I'm afraid I can't help much
Cmon theres not that much difference between computer and phone vpn=vpn isnt it same protocol?
hi. I stoped the attackbox for pausing the count down but i cant start it again.it says non-subs only can start once a day :(
Unfortunately you will have to wait til tomorrow to use it again
👍
i have a strange issue, i use a expressvpn, when i connect with my thm vpn and expressvpn toghether most things work well, some machines require me to disable expressvpn and that works as well, but i cannot access the internet or thm site threw my browser anymore until i turn my expressvpn back on, i have completley disabled the vpn(express) including netlock and still same. expressvpn=E thmvpn=T (E-on T-on = all good [some no machine acess]) (E-off T-on = machine access no browser) (E-off T-off = all good no machine access), to be clear i have the network lock on my expressvpn disabled
Try this maybe #site-support message
If it's not related to TryHackMe ask it in #infosec-general
I subscribed this morning to a monthly plan, but it's as if I did not... I still have that "go to premium"
any ideas what could have happened?
Does thm have cpe support
Is anyone looking into the path progress bars? I am currently enrolled in the PenTest+ path and it shows my overall path progress but for each main module within the path it no longer shows completed state, but if i click on the module the module does show as completed. It's hard to keep track of what all I have completed since I have completed modules outside of the specifc path.
This is intended for the moment, the site is going to have a new code push and this just makes it easier
I'm new to TryHackMe and just started the tutorials. In Task 2 I created the attackbox but when entering the IP address in firefox I get an eror message (Error code 405)
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
hi i have a problem i bought premium and it took the £8 out of my acc but i didnt get premium
email support@tryhackme.com and they will help
ok thx
That's the wrong IP
You need to deploy the target machine as well.
Hello guys, I'm on the ironcorp room and I try to connect to the http sever but it does't work . BTW I added ironcorp.me on my hosts
are we sure the new en-pass room works as expected?
It was tested
just to be sure I'm connected to the VPN ^^
and I copy/past the name to be SURE it's the correct one ^^
It definitely works
omg
Just for you 😄
Can you dm exactly what problem you was having with it?
yes
It's windows so it won't respond most likely
@eager fulcrum all right , but I suppose to see the website no ?
Idk
Did it just take forever to boot?
@eager fulcrum no it's just me....me that I'm a bit...stupid xD
but the hint about widows changed everything 😄
hey guys ,
when i click to download openvpn file show 404 page
Hello everyone , i hope you all okay , now i have a problem connecting using my VPN package , i try to connect to other servers and no results , the connection still restarting
anyone can help me i will be happy
thanks in advance
where i can regenerate it ?
On the page you were on just before the 404
anyone can help
rdp keeps crashing when i try to start the buffer overflow room.
I have tried restarting the box multiple times
?
Did you start openvpn as sudo?
It loads then crashes when i click anything
Not sure whats going on, i even tried remmina
😦
Sure, DM me
I cant start rdp it just crashes, ive even tried switching servers but that did not help
here ??
I was going to manually get the files off the rdp server to my own windows box but i cant even start the damn thing,
I didn't so get much issues, but even I did the same at my time. It's better to do this.
Send it here or personal message, both are fine!
I just want the practice oscp files but i don't know how to get them off the server if i cant start it at all
ok
I really wanted to practice this box but i cant start it at all.
check DM
Hi I am having a connection problem. I have connected the VPN ok but keep losing connection to the target machine. I have a ping running but it keeps stopping and I can wait up to 5 minutes before it starts running again. I am having this problem in several rooms, I have tried using Kali and parrot but I am getting the same results.

Ok will do thanks
"Unrouteable Control Packet" -- do you have any other VPNs running by any mischance?
Website gets a 404 error when trying to download the OpenVPN config
Is there another way to get the configuration pack?
Changing server and downloading new VPN config seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks
i cant copy and paste from my attack box to my browser.ie copy flags. could someone pls help? Thank you
i can within each box but not 1 to the other
#site-support
you are referring to the browser attack box correct?
yes
there is a button on the left hand side of the web browser machine that allows you to paste items to the box are copy items off
i'll start a box and take a screenshot of the section
im on my first linux challenge so very new but im really enjoying learning. lots to digest
ahhhhhhh thanks so much
im on first challenge and the box it initialized does not have that option on it. ill open a box and ssh in
Ahhhhh, I think I know what you are referring to. Is it a box that opened "above" all the questions at the top of the page?
yes
I dont think you can copy to or from those. I always open them and then the regular browser attack box and then ssh to it like you said.
There are a few others like that that are windows machines. I do a similar method with them where I use freerdp to connect to them
thanks for the help. ill keep trying
is there a way to move files to and from the free attackbox to my own device?
easiest is to upload to a cloud service like google drive or drop box
that is the best method i have found. same for getting files to the box
the free one doesn't have internet access tho, does it only work on subscribed instances?
sorry, yes the sub one does have internet access, i started at sub so i didn't know
if you don't have internet access, i'm not sure than
Copy and paste is the best (and only) way, I'm afraid
That will likely mean base64'ing the file and copying it as text if it's not ASCII
oooh that's an interesting approach, will try it tomorrow since my attackbox for today already expired. thanks!
I have an issue.. The rooms i've completed in, Web Fundamentals are not updating.
i have an issue. i have been trying to connect to the machine though ssh for linux it repeated says that network error: connection time out so i tried google many website told me to set up vpn and disable firewall did that no help. i also tried using mobile data(i thought it was an issue with my wifi) no change. any help would be appreciated.
I had the same problem when i connect through PuTTy. I can't remember exactly how i fixed the problem. but when i can, i'll dm you.
Any help ?

Hello can someone help me pls with the SSH Connection. Because everytime it says that the Network is unreachable. Is it because of my Firewall?
Are you connected to VPN?
!vpnscript
i dont really know where to ask this so i'll ask here, is it possible for me to use my own parrot os laptop instead of the attackbot provided by tryhackme?
Yes, you can use your own machine.
Just make sure you are connected through thm VPN so you can access the machines.
okay thx
If you are receiving a 404 error after attempting to download the OpenVPN Configuration file please try these steps:
• 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.
hey guys i need to use mysql in kali, im not sure if it installed by default i ran apt list | grep mysql and here is what i found interesting
i also ran service mysql start and checked its status
Hi today i was tried to connect tryhackme vpns using my mobile phone and it works on mobile internet but weirdly it doesnt working on wireless connection on my house i think the reason of this problem must be a firewall of my modem
but when i try msql -u root nothing happens zsh says mysql command not found
do i need to install it from the apt repository on mysql website ?
Now i was able to connect openvpn configuration but all ports are closed on internal ip adress
That's your IP
Not the IP of the machine you should be attacking
Where can i find the ip that i attack
Under Active Machine Information, in the room, once you've deployed it
Where can i find or create the ip adress that i should attack
What room are you trying to do?
Go back to that room
Look under Active Machine Information
If you don't see that heading, you haven't deployed the machine
Big Red heading
I already deployed it but i dont know where can i find ip adress and i cant see active machine information section
Then you have not deployed the machine
tried all of them still not working
getting 404
https://tryhackme.com/vpn/get-config whenver i try to open this page
i get 404
Dont use eu-regular 2 server use another one it gives 404 everytime
how to change server
@vapid dawn People seem to be struggling with EU-Regular-2
From the dropdown on the access page...
You said you'd tried all of those steps
Those steps include changing server
i thought vpn server change option is on /vpn/get-cnfig page
sorry my bad
Hey I try to subscribe 10$ monthly bundle but it won't work
I can't get all access rooms
What do you mean?
subscriptions for pro access to get rooms
I subscribed by my dbit card 10$ monthly I click to submit but it won't work it stuck
We can't see your screen
We don't know what you're looking at
What's stuck
That sort of thing
Wait a minute
Anyone else foud that something works in the attack box but not when using open vpn?
Idk if I set something up wrong in open vpn
Can you be a lil less vague?
I’ve figured it out now 😅
Is it possible to kick someone from your team on Tryhackme?
leader can do that
I don't think there is an option for that yet
Srsly?
I don't think so
Will it ever be updated?
You can put it in the feedback form in #feedback-and-ideas
Ah ok ty
Was using room last night no problem. Tried just now, Authentication Failure repeatedly on AttackBox. Reset/changed VPN, same result, logged out/in, same result. I'm also a subscriber. Any known issues at the moment I should know about? I'm super green so I actually considered it was part of the lesson, lol.
And just like a computer, it decided to work. Nvrmnd.
@eager fulcrum
OK
Hello, I am having the same issue
change vpn server from access page
I already did this
To all servers
all servers gives me the same error
@eager fulcrum still won't work
Ok, and did you check your browser console?
@eager fulcrum
That's a big red error that I can't read because that's not a screenshot
So what can I do plz show me the way

can anyone from the mods or staff verify if there's a problem or is it in our own network
Is there a way to terminate all active machines?
I'm getting this and the attackbox isn't showing in my browser.
I'm getting the same message as @elder junco
I tried entering the info from @civic lodge's link into console, and it didn't fix the problem

@topaz abyss
Yeah i have exactly same problem
if you do a ctrl+f5 or shift+f5 does it still show the issue
Of course.
just checking, I have had to do it a few times on some pages to clear cache
does anyone know how i terminate my session? i keep getting the pop-up
I have burp badge and im not even subscribed
....
While working through the beginner path I seem to have lost access to my attack machine, and whenever I try to deploy a machine I get the uh-oh you alreayd have a mahcine deployed in this room popup, even though I do not seem to have a machine opened.
Can't deploy any machines
Unfortunately it did not resolve the issue
having the same issue here
I had also manually gone through all of the rooms I was in and could not find any open machines.
I too am having the same issue still, I tried the suggested fix but it did not work.
Skidy has been notified of the terminate machine issue:)
Thanks.
heyy, i'm trying to start an attackbox but it keeps telling me that i'm already deploying a machine in another room, and i'm sure that i'm deploying nothing, who knows how to solve this problem ?
sorry didn't see previous messages, it seems that i have the exact same problem
Does anyone have a workaround? The above didn't work for me.
None of the suggested work arounds seem to fix the issues. My advise is to wait around till one of the mods give us an update.
@supple void OK will do, thanks.
@supple void @glossy turret @limber summit that should be fixed for you now?
not for me :/
@deep trellis I have the same issue
Just to be clear, its saying you already have a machine running?
@deep trellis not fixed for me either. Still says I have a machine running in the room and Disconnected up at the top of the screen.
Or Get Connected rather
@deep trellis Uh-oh! You already have a machine running in this room. Terminate it before deploying another machine.
Same, same thing happens when i try to deploy form the my machine page
@glossy turret I can see that you do actually have a machine running
Is this all for the attackbox?
and the weird thing is that it appears when starting the attackbox and not when trying to deploy a machine
Please refresh your cache
Yes. I don't have the machine up on my end though.
Did not work for me.
Me either
me either
Refreshed my cache, still throwing the same error.
ok, I will investigate now, please give me a second
Thanks for the help @deep trellis
Thanks for getting on it so quickly!
I have to run my son to work, be back in around 30ish if I don't reply that's the reason

anyone know how to fix this ? (cache cleared but still not working )
Skidy is looking into it right now.
Hello,
I just got started using THM and got a question:
I have a service (Apache httpd, node on various ports) running locally on a Port of my Computer.
Can other THM players access this service if they’re also in the THM OpenVPN connection?
Is there a risk when leaving ports for my own experiments open while connected to the THM Network?
Thanks in advance and sorry if this is the wrong channel for such a question.
That's one reason to use a VM just for hacking
ok, so other people can see me in the network, am I right?
We've identified the issue and are now working on a fix.
Probably make them accessible internally only? @naive dust
Thank you!
Yes, most of them are, but you never can be too sure
guys while im trying to expliot pickle rick room i just removed the ssh service from the target machine. is that can be a problem for other players ?
from my understanding the room is reset everytime a player deploys the machine so it shouln't be a problem
when you deploy a machine, that instance is just for you
ok thank you
Thanks @deep trellis it's working again!
@graceful wadi @limber summit @glossy turret it should be all fixed now:)
@dry pebble @ionic shoal @topaz abyss ^^
@deep trellis yeah it's all good, thank you so much
Badge problem?
When you visit my profile for example, you will see Mr Robot Badge, but I didn't solved this room.
What should I do if the target machine fails to launch? I had a session going when my computer froze on my side. It was a VM so I nuked everything (it had been buggy in other ways). When I reinstalled everything and logged back into THM I couldn't relaunch the target machine. All I get is a notification that I already launched the machine. The top of the page shows no ip info. Elsewhere in the room it shows MACHINE_IP where it previously showed the ip. It's been well over two hours so the target machine should've expired by now. Why can't I launch a new one or see the IP of the one that supposedly still exists?
Refresh?
That was the first thing I tried.
@deep trellis That worked for me too, thanks. While I'm here, how do you cleanly shut the attack system down if you have it broke out into a separate window?
I think I "fixed" it
I launched an attackbox and terminated it once it finished booting. then i refreshed and it let me relaunch the target machine. this is well over an hour after the target should've expired though. it would be nice if users could force a reboot or look up which machines have been assigned to them.
Thanks Skidy!
Hi. Anyone else unable to connect to THM's openvpn? (TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity))
And, just in case, I tried to download the ovpn file again, but the download page throws me a 404
Ohh, forget it. I didn't know we were able to switch between servers (I thought there was only one connection to THM). Worked when I switched to another one

shiba3 is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
That user does not have sudo.
You don't need sudo to mkdir
i tried without sudo too doesnt work
Go to #room-hints, this is not a tech support issue.
This is you not understanding something correctly.
i checked my profile what should i do ?
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘test’: Permission denied
i tried without sudo i get this
what dont i understand correctly?
You're trying to create it in the wrong place.
Go to #room-hints
Did you read a Verify document James posted for you?
im not, im creating it in home dir, i will go to room hints thanks
yeah but it's the problem that i will ask about ,i cannot follow to get the channel updates... and i cannot upload image here and anywhere bytheway

Hello, i'm trying to download my OpenVPN configuration File, but its redirecting me to 404 - An error occured

Awesome sauce ! Happy hacking :D
Good day mates - I'm in the ROOM: Internal - and I've sent in feedback - the LOGIN page for the certain "web page" is not allowing me - I have the user:pass - but it continues to say I have no connection to the server. I've checked all 3 VM's of KALI and used the THM online Ubuntu Attack machine as well -- all 4 are doing the same. I'm thinking it's the Internal machine -- just wondering if it is and if so, when will it be fixed. I spent my entire morning trying to trouble shot it...to no avail. Thanks ! Have a great weekend! Oh - I continued to TERMINATE and restart several instances as well...still can't get to the inside of the webpage.
Hi, Im getting a "New connection has been rejected with reason: Authentication failure" error when trying to connect to my deployed attackbox
Hi, i got a cooldown for answering Questions. I dont know why. I would like to go on with my learning Path but it is not possible for me. Is there a Way to answer Questions again without waiting an Hour?
@deep trellis a bunch of people seem to be hitting this since the push btw
Which error ? The question cooldown?
Yep
Taking a look now
i’m also getting it too thought it was the vpn connection :p
VPN doesn't touch your internet traffic, which is important
ah, but yeah now i’m at my second time having too many questions answered
it’s specifically been kind of slow
what is the average wait time on an email to support?
So support staff don't work set hours
If you don't get an answer in a week, follow it up
sounds good. nothing major, just curious. TY
This issue should be fixed now:)
You guys don't give any chance to people like me to come first even monthly leaderboards 😭 . No offense, keep up the good work 👍
thx 
when i run ssh2john i get this error AttributeError: module 'base64' has no attribute 'decodestring'
do you have any ideas
Use python2. #infosec-general as it's not site or VPN related.
Hello, Anyone else having the Problem that I cant copy my badge link?
The list just wont show me anything
I saw this earlier as well. I believe I saw that the team is aware and is working on it.
can anyone help? im trying to upload a vm to tryhackme but it say Problem converting VM. Check prerequisites. I checked prerequisites, i dont think my machine got any problem, its ubuntu 18.0.4 and the upload page show its supported, its vmdk file and i make it using virtualbox
1804 desktop or server? @tranquil dirge
desktop
Shouldn't be a vmdk, should be an OVA
do i need server?
also vmdk doesnt work? but it say allowed
It doesn't say allowed, it's not int he list
ok nvm
It might work though, just not listed

Is this the "too many questions answered" thing?
@deep trellis Looks like it's still happening to a few people
This is like the 2nd or so after the patch was applied?
I was doing the VIP Burpsuite room and it happened right after pressing intercept on button
total noob btw
so first i thought maybe i did something wrong, but now since you mentioned this, maybe this info helps

which Ip address did you paste
okay you need to paste the machine ip which you deployedin the room not the private ip of the attack box
i have a public ip and a private one. Are you referring to the public ip ?
no the ip of the machine not the attack box
you need to deploy a machine with a green button in the tutorial room

Foe example in my public badge overview I have earned this based but this is not true. Also in the private badge overview it is not awarded like in picture 2
So you have this badge despite not ever earning it?

Ok thanks
Ok. Any solution?

I'm a rookie on TryHackMe
Today when I started my web browser based attack machine I was denied access due to authentication failure.
I mean the machine wasn't even started so it's not like I failed to login with ssh
Unable to access room after login in to account it's keep loading and loading... Tried every possible ways 😑
Note:- Mine Internet connectivity is good
what's thm
i have a problem, i don know if this is tech or room problem but i try to nmap scan and it always freezes, i have waited several minutes and it wont work, what shoudl i do?
i m using attack machine from site
also have restarted both, machine and the attack box
i have also changed the different scans but always "freeze"
says: SStarting nmap blah blah..... and then just stays there
20 min?
how long 😄
i m subscribed member so i should have ok conneciton
this has not happened before today
oh god
it says 33 mins left
15% done
jesus
should not be
What's your scan?

network services room
from cyber defence
nmap -T4 -p- and ip
For telnet?
yes
That one is just super super slow

Because otherwise it takes forever
yeah i'm getting a 500 error
got an error that im answering too many questions or something today, wth? gotta wait an hour now
Show the error in a screenshot.
Hi!
I have a doubt and I wonder if you could help me. Why do you guys use Ubuntu a lot? it is a heavy operating system and has some privacy issues. I'm looking for a different linux distribution, I've used arch linux a lot and some others based on it. Ubuntu is one of my options, because I see that you use it a lot for cyber security. But I always have this doubt.
Although it depends what you mean by "you guys"
If by "you guys" you mean people who create the content for THM, then I guess that can go here. But mostly #infosec-general
Ok, thank you for your answer, if you want i would like to hear your opinion
@cinder bear you should use kali linux its good,the most of the tools are downloaded its easy to learn and fast
but I am looking for an operating system to use daily. Kali linux is not much use for this purpose, right?
#site-support whenever I access the machine it keep getting disconnected, also the vpn keeps disconnecting. Can someone help please?
IN Advent of Cyber 2 Day 24 first question
Scan the machine. What ports are open?
i am getting result 80,65000
when i entered it is showing incorrect answer but it is the correct answer
Show screenshot. Also, try regenerating config wait 2 mins and download and try again.
I was learning how to SSH on TryHackMe. They gave a username 'shiba2' (those who have gone there might know it already). So I open up Putty as they said in the Host name column I type this :
shiba2@Myip
Then Putty starts and they ask me for the password and I type in the password that TryHackMe provided. I've typed it exactly as it is but again and again a message saying 'Access denied' keeps popping up. I've checked it in a lot of places and I've tried all methods but nothing is working out for me. Any kind of help will be thoroughly appreciated.
Ahhh.....yes. It was that easy. Number one troubleshooting tip. Should have thought of it myself.
Thanks a lot. Now I'm up running again 🙂
Hi guys. Trying to download a OpenVPN config file, but get a 404 instead. Any solutions to this?
What process are you following to get there OpenVPN to work
Oh no process yet, just want to start working around the blue room. Need a VPN to connect to the machine, but if I want to download my vpn config file, the website gets a 404
that link I mean
That's what I meant though.... To What are the steps you are taking to download the configuration file
First timer 😉
I click on the blue machine, then I try to click on the connect button.
Ok hold on
Then I select Linux (have my own machine)
k
I get a 404 too
!vpnscript
Is James here?
If u read it it tells u
"cannot load inline certificate file"
try
openvpn ~/Downloads/LinceAzul.ovpn
error again
Double check your file is there, if it is regenate and download again
I tried and I still can't solve the prolem hahah
🙂
@fallen juniper You are going to kill me hahahaha
I presume you've been able to connect before?
yes
Try changing VPN server and regenerate->wait 30 seconds->download->run
That's the first thing I tried xDD
and when I tried to download it in the new vpn server...
That may be the cause tbf, seems like u need to switch servers. I too am getting the 404
Looks like this error is while using EU server
disadvantages of being european xDDD
I'm on EU seems fine, unable to download any .OVPN files, i'm escalating atm
@eager aurora Try now 🙂
Which ever one u weren't using
xD
Is that EU-Regular 2 by any chance?
yes
Mine's doing the same try a different one, it won't make a huge difference
doesit work
guys i have a problem at nmap

Hello i need support How i can run Ip rotation in Our VPS Debian 10 ... i have some problem with /etc/network/interfaces
@drowsy mantle #infosec-general
hello. why can't I share my badge achievements (/p/myusername)? The select is empty, but I have 3 badges on my profile and multiple completed rooms.
is the MTU work around automatic or do i need to disconnect and close everything out and then reconnect
Anyone got that problem with openvpn 2.5 ?
And how can i fix it ?
Let me see
Still The error showing, is that something with thm not allowing compress option in their servers?
i tried to change to EU-2 but i seems that it giving me the 404..
The other conf files working fine but the eu-1...
Well thanks anyway 🙂
ugggg did THM do something to the vpn this past week I'v been experiencing extreamly long connection time outs for the past 3 days i already tried the MTU work around but it dosn't help?
I have been using the free VPN servers and I have not experienced any issues. How do you know the VPN is timing out?
when i connect to a thm machine and type anything in the term it takes like 10-30 minuets to process
and it only happens on thm
other sites that use openvpn like HTB dont have a problem
Are you sure it's the VPN and not the machine?
And have you tried a different VPN server?
um kinda yes because its all thm machines igust finished haskhell which took like 2hrs because of the slow response also the same on en-pass
yes same issue but only with thm .opvn
If the issues are continuing to occur after you have switched server, it is unlikely that it is the VPN.
Especially as I have not seen many complaints and it is working for me.
then why is it just affecting THM and not othe sites
There are many factors that may be affecting it, one may be your location in terms of the server you are connecting to.
Does your OpenVPN output anything in the logs?
idk honestly dont know where the logs are at
Where you enter the command in your terminal.
I checked the .ovpn file that i download ifrom THM, it accually dont have inline certificate like other .ovpn files .
unless you are referring to the .opvn config script that is running in the back ground
what should i do here ?
@wet bone Press regenerate, wait 2 minutes, click download.
i did it like for 10 times
Make sure not to background the process, this may cause issues.
i waited 10 20 min
Switch VPN server.
you mean this
@deep trellis Lots of complaints about Eu-2 directing to a 404 page, are you aware of this?
@eternal bay Your VPN issues are caused by MultiVPN.
!multivpn
Make sure you have setup your VPN connection correctly https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn
Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter
If there's more than one line (that don't start with "grep" or sudo), do the following steps
Type sudo killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter
Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>
Follow these steps.
i only have one instance running
You do not, your interface should be tun0 not tun1.
can i share the content of the conf file to u in direct , to see what could be the problem ?
You have already identified the issue. "No inline certificate" means your file is missing some lines. Nothing I can do, I am not apart of the site team sorry. Skidy has been notified and will hopefully answer when free.
Until then, the only advice I can offer is:
• Use the AttackBox for the time being if you want to complete any rooms.
• Wait an hour, regenerate your configuration file and wait 2 minutes before re-downloading again.
• Wait until the issue has been fixed.
Sorry.
openvpn configuration is off ?
Are you able to give any more details/ elaborate?
my english is bad
error 404 when I click the link to download the configuration
i am using google translate
Press regenerate on the access page, wait 2 minutes, click download again.
If that does not work, switch VPN servers.
+1 on that, switched servers and unable to connect yet. I get the below error
Options error: In [CMD-LINE]:1: Error opening configuration file: xyz.ovpn
Use --help for more information.
Thanks for notifying the team 👍

what did you mean by "check the pins here"
what is MTU fix?
(google is needed?)
In the discord pinned messages
"For anyone facing connection issues like web pages not loading and other stuff not working even after you have verified that you are connected properly (with https://github.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting) and/or you can load the http://10.10.10.10 page but see no IP there, follow this potential fix
With ip : sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200
With ifconfig : sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200"
i can see the page and have no such of an issue ,
couldnt find anything else
Thank you for ignoring the fix that I suggested.
why ignoring?
Why not try it and see if it works?
i have looked and followed as you said
i have looked at the pins as you told me , then i looked for the most common issue to have
Did you try the fix?
you are right , i did not , will do rn , tho the site is working for me and i have an ip adress
I give up. I suggested something, and you argued repeatedly. I don't want to help people who don't want my help.
thank you , i will try to work with what you gave me 🙂
no hard felling , im not arguing , you are the master in this field , im just the student
Can't find your earlier ping, but that OpenVPN server should be okay now - I've got some better logging in place to see what exactly is going on. Thanks for letting me know:)
Thank you Skidy :)

Are some of the pcap files for the Wireshark 101 course old or have the changed over time?
I cannot get to connect to the VPN server using the openvpn file I downloaded. It just outputs a Certificate fatal error.
I regenerated the file, changed the server, nothing.

what command did you run to join?
What are your suggestions on how to fix this?
Nevermind I thought that perhaps it may have been an accidental oversight when entering the command to join. As mods said this is not the case unfortunately.
Why is this a tech support question?

ok im not asking
Did you put the correct email on the account? Are you looking into the correct email's inbox?
Newbie here to Tryhackme. Is it expected for my attack machine to disconnect after about 5-10mins?
What do you mean by "disconnect"?
I completely lose access to the desktop and in the center of the screen it says "Disconnected"
I then have to restart the attack machine
Any one having trouble connecting the VPN? This is my first time using it. It just keeps connecting forever and says "failure".

Do that, then screenshot

Hi, the OWASP TOP 10 room has several machines, and the second one (10.10.185.169) port 8888 (which is an exercise in task 7 is down
I mean, this port is down (which is needed for the task)
Scanned the port and it shows up as closed
I can only see & access port 80 for 10.10.185.169 @rigid wasp
Lemme check the task real quick
I'm not disagreeing with you 😅 are you sure you got the right VM deployed?
It should show this at the top of the room
There's a lot of VM's in that room so it's v. easy to get the wrong one /keep the previous deployed (:
Oh...
Each task that has this is it's own Instance/Machine that you will need to deploy (that is separate from the other tasks)
Again -- very easily done (:
You're absolutely right, I was trying to connect to the previous one 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
😄 like I said -- easily done (especially when a room has multiple VM's)
Hopefully that'll have you sorted (:
Kind of went to the exercises blindly.. got used to the other rooms. Thanks and sorry 🤦♂️
Haha
No worries at all (: hf!

hey, whenever I need to download something for a task in the rooms. I never can open the file. I tried changing from browser but that doesn't do anything. it's on a Windows 10. anyone have suggestions to fix the issue? thank you in advance!

Thats a good point. I'll report it 🙂
cheers for the suggestion but now Wireshark doesn't let me open the file. Even when I try to look for the file It still can't find it. can't even slide it into the page. but thanks for the suggestion 😉

ok
Timed out for game zone room, 10.10.45.17 (machine deployed ) but not up :/
did you try to end it then re-launch a new one ?
hashcat -m 3200 4thtask.txt /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt
Retry by adding " -a 0 " to the command ( it puts attack mode on )
I never had this kind of error so I don't know where it can come from, we never know
Welp, I used Johntheripper instead of hashcat, and It worked.. Although It's not the Ideal solution for it but still it worked.
the ip is not showing any port open, all are filtered,10.10.10.10 shows I am connected but when I try to connect the ip of machine it doesnt connect
lol
First off, you're asking for room-help/hints in the wrong channel. Second there's an embargo on that room so no discussing until it's over. See pinned messages in room-help/hints
Whenever I run hashcat to crack a certain type of hash which is bcrypt for some reason I get this message and hashcat stops working;
{ https://prnt.sc/zqs5o5 }
~
Then I tried to run JohnTheRipper Instead of hashcat and, John worked just fine. It took a lot of time to crack It so I'm still looking for a solution to fix hashcat's problem
I hope you meant me by that message lol
Do you have 65mb of free memory?
