Could anyone help me with a VPN issue. I’m running Windows 10 and Kali Linux in a virtual box. I noticed in the THM troubleshooting OpenVPN Troubleshooting page it mentions this exact thing. So I read that and digested it as I should run the VPN on the virtual box not the host PC so I turned it off and removed it from WIN10 and ran it on KL VM but I’m having an issue when using MetaSploit I’m not getting any of the reverse shells ect. When I check the lhost every time it’s trying to use my eth0 instead of my tun0 that points to THM

#

Note: I change the lhost before exploit but soon as I run it it changes back to eth0 not the tun0 I previously put

Hello ! i've tried searching for an answer, so i ended up sending an e-mail to support@tryhackme.com, but i might just ask here aswell :D. Since i'm in france and doesn't have a .edu or .ac.uk address, do you think i still could get a discount if i provide info that i am a student?

i've already seen this, but it says only about asking them with my "student" email. What i'm asking if i don't have an .edu or .ac.uk, will it work anyway if i provide them proofs that i'm a student?

Yup, if you can prove it.

hi

previsouly spoken to @bronze vale about a bussiness subscription and i was asking how I am getting some free swag
who would be the best person/team to deal with it ?

bronze vale
#

Only Ashu/ Skidy deal with free swag

#

Email me and I’ll forward it to them, but they are busy atm so the response won’t be instant

If you have already emailed me about it, there’s a chance I have already forwarded the email to them :)

Not sure what you mean about “post purchase too”

north quail
# bronze vale Not sure what you mean about “post purchase too”

i mean.. if the finance team purchuase the subscriptions we can arrance any swag after they do the purchase.. or it needs to be coordinated before the purchuase ..
appologies if this is confusing 🙂 unfortunately the company i work is massve and they have all these rules and questions 😄 😄

Hi!

I hope this is the right place to write about this. Last summer I subscribed for 1 month premium and I'm thinking about subscribing again. I got the discount for the previous one when I changed my email address to the one provided by my university. But now when I checked it again, it's asking for the full price (10 USD/month). 😕

Hello there. Just wondering whether you guys might be having some VPN issues/I'm doing something wrong (more likely)? I'm on the US East Coast and have been trying to connect with the East Coast regular config (as I have done before), but getting a fatal error when doing so. I've also tried the West Coast & EU config files but seeing the same thing happen.

Could this be an issue with internet connection, can provide more details.

Apologies if this isn't the right place for this, but I have a question. I've noticed that some room links automatically join the room while others don't. Is there a reason for that? Is the only distinction a "/jr" vs a "/room", or is it something inherent to the room design?

Hi. A really simple question (I hope). I installed openvpn on my parrot OS Virtual Machine and it connected lovely. I turned the Virtual Machine off to do other stuff but when I restarted it just a moment ago, openvpn cannot connect to 10.10.10.10 (your network) so I am guessing that the service hasn't started. What is the Linux command I need to run to start the service (I did try and google it but no joy)?

not sure the best place to ask this, but is there a way to make the attackbox actually pop out, instead of popout + still be in the original window?

#

that's not quite how i mean. Like I've got the box in it's own FF window

#

but I'm trying to keep the instructions up in a half screen window on my other monitor

the only wway i can see to do it is to keep that window maximized as well, and just "hide" the attackbox with discord, which only works until i need to click on something

#

ahh

eager fulcrum

lol

same with a fully exited firefox, clearing cookies now

#

and same

eager fulcrum
drowsy frigate
#

which minus? you mean for the browser window as a whole?

#

let me try this...

#

this is what i want (ish) without the far right attackbox

so it looks like this:

as you can see, the "full screen" version is limited to whatever is still in the original window

Any idea whats going on here? is it because i have LinEnum.sh in root or??

Hey guys. Is there any place I can read about your policies when uploading machines?

eager fulcrum
#

https://help.tryhackme.com/ has articles on it

desert cradle
#

Thank you very much 🙏

#

So, THM is not against people uploading machines with malware or any other form of malicious intent that is masked by a challenge?

#

I'm asking because someone is bogging me with this question. Just want to be sure there's an official answer to that. I highly doubt this has happened before, but one thing is my trust on THM, another thing is official policies/rules to prevent this

eager fulcrum
#

That would be against AWS's policies, I believe

#

Content is not released without being reviewed first.

desert cradle
#

I understood that, but what sort of controls are out there to avoid this?

eager fulcrum
#

The fact content is reviewed?

desert cradle
#

Their concern is how can they be sure there is not a room that looks like a normal challenge but underneath there are some malicious things going on trying to install things in the student's machine, scrape data/information, or something even worse like install a rootkit for malicious purposes?

Hi, thx for the script but it doesn't work for me. It says the problem is that openvpn isnt installed witch it is.

eager fulcrum
#

You're using something that isn't debian based

cobalt crown
#

And ive been using it. But i do have pure arch and this problem did not occur at any time before

eager fulcrum
#

You use arch, I'm sure you can modify the troubleshooting script to work on arch.

#

But it 100% sounds like your VPN is not working correctly

cobalt crown
#

Its been working fine untill now

eager fulcrum
#

Ok, seeing as you're arguing I'm just gonna give up.

cobalt crown
#

not trying to argue. Im gonna comment out the open vpn area since i have it installed

#

Again i didnt mean to argue

zealous yoke
# desert cradle So, THM is not against people uploading machines with malware or any other form ...

It's against our ToS (https://tryhackme.com/terms) & we'd also be liable against AWS' ToS. Our quality control for that sort of stuff is done during content review. However we as a site don't support nor give any guarantees on the content of quality for private rooms (I.e. rooms that don't get submitted to be public)

With the nature of cyber security platforms it's always best practice to use a VM wherever possible, and if not, that is why we have the online Kali & AtttackBox machines

#

cc @eager fulcrum

#

Users must not distribute any malicious material to other user such as malware through the upload functionality, or through any other means.

User must abstain from any unlawful, inappropriate and abusive use of the content and the services provided on this website at all times, in accordance with the existing legislation, and respect the intellectual property rights of TryHackMe.

#

Also room instances deployed on THM don't have any internet access and are destroyed when they're terminated or expire -- so no data can go anywhere and even if it's collected it's on the machine for it's life time which is a maximum of a couple of hours

eager fulcrum
zealous yoke
#

Well you're the exception as you have the 10.10.10.10 machine

eager fulcrum
#

Even without that

#

No cheating allowed 😉

zealous yoke
#

Fairs ahah -- well in that case we don't wanna be breaking ToS now do we 😄

any help?

Screenshot

mighty urchin
#

.\PowerUp.ps1 this is what im typing

#

and i literally get nothing

#

just an empty response

eager fulcrum
#

That's intended

#

You need to import it, then you can run verbs from the script.

#

Dot space dot backslash to import it

mighty urchin
#

and verbs are some kind of special functions that the .ps1 file imported

#

?

eager fulcrum

Powershell verbs are basically functions

You'd be using Invoke-AllChecks here, after importing the module

which is a name of function

verb but yes

that the module imported

Is there anyway to have the certificates reference my Full Name instead of my username?

Unfortunately you cannot change what's on the certificates at the moment.
If the certificate has already been generated, it's stuck like that.
You can set your Full Name in your profile, and THM will use that for certs going forwards.

You can't 'exit' from one, but you can change paths by going back to the list of paths and picking a new one. 😀

So I'm using the web-browser Attackbox and I need to know why it's slow sometimes ( for example, exploiting telnet which takes time to receive the answer )

Hello, everyone.
I've got an issue with OpenVPN connectivity.
I was solving rooms yesterday, after I've finished, I stopped OpenVPN connection with Ctrl+C. That stopped the running openvpn process in my system. When I checked connectivity in https://tryhackme.com/access I was still connected.
I checked running processes with ps command, but there's no openvpn process.
I restarted the computer, but still I am connected according to the https://tryhackme.com/access page. I checked also ifconfig, and there's no tunX connection, even single one.
Any possible directions to look? Or am I doing smth wrong?
I am on ubuntu 20.04 lts using Chrome 90.0.4430.72 (I've also checked in mozilla, and it says I'm connected to the THM network there as well) if that can be of any help.

Hey all. I'm having an issue when using ssh to connect to room machines from my own kali box. It just times out everytime. If I boot up an AttackBox, ssh works np. I tested ssh on my kali box, it works fine when connecting to other servers (not THM).

Is this a known issue? How can I resolve?

EDIT: Clarification

eager fulcrum
#

Connect to the VPN

drowsy urchin
#

Yes I'm connected.

#

For instance if I use smbclient it goes through

#

Basically anything else goes through

eager fulcrum
drowsy urchin
#

Yep, shows me the flag

#

(and the IP)

eager fulcrum
#

Weird. What machines are you trying to SSH into?

#

And have you tried a different VPN server?

drowsy urchin
#

At the moment, network Services room "Enumerating SMB"

#

Tried restarting target, switching VPNs

#

Same story

eager fulcrum
#

What's the exact message you get when you SSH?

drowsy urchin
#

Nothing for a while, and then "Connection closed by 10.10.X.X port 22"

#

Nmap reports port is up, and I can grab banner with nc. Only thing that doesn't go through is ssh :/

eager fulcrum
#

Connection closed is different, that tells me what the problem likely is

#

Timed out would be a different message

#

In the pins here, there's an MTU fix. Try that on your kali.

drowsy urchin
#

I'll take a look and get back to you with results

#

MTU fix worked! Thanks James

Hello, could someone explain to me why this is happening? On my own kali VM I can't get in, but on THM's attack box I can get in on the first try :/
Is it possible to have access to the THM iso?

( It concerns the Gain Access part of the Room Blue)

eager fulcrum
dire knoll
#

I don't understand, I have configured it well as you said yesterday, I even put openVPN on the VM

#

I will try again methodically

eager fulcrum
dire knoll
#

What kind of iso is THM attackbox ? Is it possible to get it ?

eager fulcrum
#

It's ubuntu 1804 with a bunch of pentesting tools installed on it.
No, you can't get it yourself. You can get Ubuntu and install all the tools but it's a lot of work. Best to use Kali.

dire knoll
#

ok ok thx

dire knoll

I'm done with Blue coolguy
The problem was not the LHOST in the end, I just restarted several times my VM and the VM THM and it ended up working

eager fulcrum
#

The LHOST was incorrect in that image, so it was also an issue

dire knoll
#

Yep but after fixing it the Handler failed to bind it randomly for no reason

eager fulcrum
#

Probably because something was already listening on 4444
