anyone else having issue downloading vpn?? i hit a 404 page

[deep spire]

is that on a europe vpn? if so it's a known issue, try changing the server

[deep spire]

EU-Regular-2?

[frigid vapor]

done

[deep spire]

different server working?

[frigid vapor]

all done

than kyou

[turbid void]

vpn is connected but not able to ping the machine & also the site is not showing i'm connected as well. tried regeneration the vpn pack & updated my openvpn still nothing

[crystal marlin]

For a moment I thought that's a picture of an online casino slot machine 😄

[naive dust]

When conducting an NMAP scan on my POLOTELNET machine it says that no ports are open. Any Ideas? Firewall issue?
I've tried with and without the OpenVN THM connection
I'm on EU-REGULAR-1

I'm not having issues with NMAP on any other IPs

[blazing laurel]

Hey friends! Does anyone know how the THM Attack Box differs from the usual Kali image? I've been using the browser-based VM as a subscriber, but wanted to play with setting up my own home VM to try OpenVPN access and to have some configuration persistence between uses. Is the difference just that it's pre-configured for access to THM machines, or is it further customized than that?

[naive dust]

As it seems like I'm not the only one having issue when behind a VPN, is there a ticket for this issue?

[marble cobalt]

Hi eveyone..This is the place to ask something about linux?

I try to install, and stuck in some levels..I forget how to that and my friend Google(haha) doesn`t give the answer

[keen scroll]

What's the problem you are facing?

[naive dust]

Is tech-support the wrong channel?

[crystal marlin]

Maybe use #site-bugs

[distant pawn]

I having an issue with target machine not working. I already restarted the machine multiple times and also re downloaded my openvpn file. The issue still persists.

[hardy mountain]

^same

[crystal marlin]

More details would be great. What room, what task, what exactly is not working - so what have you tried ?

[distant pawn]

All of the rooms in Network Services 2. I ping the target machine and get 100% packet loss. I restarted the machines multiple times and also re download my openvpn file.

[crystal marlin]

So you are on a VM or installed OS ?

[distant pawn]

Sorry it's actually all the rooms on Network Services. It's an OS.

[crystal marlin]

Sry I didn't get that, it is an installed operating system ? Or a virtual machine you use as attacking machine ? Or you are using the web based attackbox?

[distant pawn]

yeah im using Kali linux as OS. It's my daily OS.. I connect to THM via openvpn.

[crystal marlin]

Okay. Are you able to open 10.10.10.10 in your browser?

[distant pawn]

yes flag{connection_verified} Your VPN/TryHackMe IP is: 10.6.97.119

[crystal marlin]

[crystal marlin]

Alright, so if you can ping that machine, that means the machines should be working fine for you in that room.

[crystal marlin]

What's the Title of the target machine you have started atm ? It should be in the active machine information box on the room site

[distant pawn]

ftpfinal. It's working now! I don't know what you did but thanks a lot!

I've been having this problem since yesterday. Thanks again! 💯

[tardy yew]

Hey. I'm having an issue where all the machines I use as part of the web-fundamentals course have a tendency to freeze and become unresponsive every 3-5 minutes. They do come back to life after 2 minutes of waiting. Has anybody faced a similar problem?

[crystal marlin]

Are you on the web based attackbox or your own VM/install ?

[tardy yew]

Virtual Box

Now I'm thinking it could actually be the VPN. Might try to switch to another server

[crystal marlin]

I would try to do sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 any see if that helps. In case it doesn't just but it back to 1500

[tardy yew]

Will try. Thanks!

[scenic torrent]

Hi I try to use the VPN but I get error, it`s new machine and when I try to open the file openvpn I get something else

[crystal marlin]

You see that there is a typo in it ?

[marble cobalt]

this is when I try to use the openvpn

[marble cobalt]

sorry, I don`t understand what you mean

[crystal marlin]

In the first picture you typed "insatll" instead of "install"

[marble cobalt]

damm

thanks

now it`s working

XD

[crystal marlin]

Great 😄

[marble cobalt]

ok but I still get error

[crystal marlin]

Are you sure the file is called like that ? I think the config file has the ending .ovpn - Maybe change to your Downloads folder and type ls -al to check the file name

[marble cobalt]

no sorry it`s ovpn

but I get error

I think its because I dont have IPV4

[crystal marlin]

Have you changed the server or regenerated the config file on the access page on THM after downloading that config file ?

I would re download your config file and try it with the new one. And don't change server or press regenerate after downloading your config file, as the file might not work anymore after you do that.

[marble cobalt]

otherwise..I thonk my error it`s about the IPV4

Becuase I tried downlaod again and still get error

and now I try to download again the file and I get 404

[crystal marlin]

But you have internet access on that machine, right? So you can open websites in the browser of that machine, right?

[marble cobalt]

yep

[crystal marlin]

So do the following, delete you old config file in your download folder to make sure you have the new correct file downloaded, change vpn server, press regenerate, wait 3+ mins before trying to download the config file (as it's taking a little bit of time to regenerate the file). If the issue with 404 error keeps appearing follow these instruction: #site-support message

[marble cobalt]

ok thanks I will try that

[scenic torrent]

[marble cobalt]

@crystal marlin it`s differnter between EU-regular-1 or EU-regular-2

[crystal marlin]

I don't know what you mean

[crystal marlin]

But either way what you meant, if you are subscriber you could choose the VIP servers, what I would do rather then going with the regular ones.

[crystal marlin]

Ye I know what servers are there, but I don't know what you were asking me. But anyways, I would pick the EU-VIP -1 or 2

[naive dust]

What changed here ??? What is outdated ? If you are referring to the new MITRE Engage site it doesn;t even have Use Cases anymore.
And the correct one in SHIELD site is the one I am putting in and it is saying it is wrong ??

[marble cobalt]

well I dont understand what is differnet between VIP to regular..but VIP2 its working for me

thanks 🙂

[crystal marlin]

VIP is only for subscribers and regular for all. So most probably the VIP servers will work better due to not as many people use them as the regular ones. As far as I know.

[marble cobalt]

ok thanks...I will continue after I watch the game

[visual crater]

Hi guys im trying to do the room "owasptop10" but the vm "Injection v4" wont load. I can ping the machine but it wont load in the browser, i left it fort about 5 min. Anyone know what im doing wrong? The ip is 10.10.123.144

[crystal marlin]

What task number is it and what's the url you try to open ?

[visual crater]

Task nr 5, http://10.10.51.136 and http://10.10.51.136/evilshell.php

But i just restarted the vm so its still booting up i think

[visual crater]

Its doing the same

[crystal marlin]

Are you on the attackbox or VM or installed os ?

[visual crater]

Vm with openvpn

But am connected and other rooms worked fine

[crystal marlin]

So you can open 10.10.10.10 just fine?

[visual crater]

Yes

[crystal marlin]

Have you tried ctrl + F5 already?

[visual crater]

I can even see the title of the html but it wont load

Yes

[crystal marlin]

Could you send a screenshot?

[visual crater]

It wont let me

[crystal marlin]

You would have to verify first

[crystal marlin]

Mh, anything in the dev console that would give you a clue ?

[visual crater]

Could this be it?

[crystal marlin]

Not sure if that could be the issue but somehow I don't think so. Anything else?

[visual crater]

I do find something weird, when i open devtools and do shift+ctrl+r i can see a bit of the page, but when i close devtools its gone. And i cant type in the input field when in devtools

[crystal marlin]

I would try to restore firefox to it's default settings

[visual crater]

Well i tried it in the attackbox and it works fine

So i think that could be it

Could it be something with the vpn? It also doesnt work in chromium

[crystal marlin]

Maybe, you could try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that solves it, if it doesn't put it back to 1500

[visual crater]

Well uhh, good news webpage loaded fast. But it also froze my entire pc

Not just the kali vm but also the host

[crystal marlin]

Uhm, that sounds strange ^^ You have openvpn only inside your kali VM, right ? Not on the host machine too ?

[visual crater]

Yes in kali

Not on the host

What does the command do?

[crystal marlin]

I'm not too sure, you have to look it up if you want to know it, but I think it's about packet size.

[visual crater]

Well it works fine in my vm now and my host didnt crash again so thx!

[crystal marlin]

Great, you're welcome 🙂

Hey all. I'm going crazy try to fix my SSH connection issues. I'm 100% connected to openVPN (have IP in top right of machine in green bubble). I'm on my 3rd config file.

I've been able to connect to the THM machines before but now its just not working at all. Connection just keeps timing out

[trail yacht]

Anything on this issue?

[long trench]

I don't know if I should write here but I don't know where to put it. Why if I want to buy a subscription for a tryhackme month and try to pay with PayPal, I have to give a credit card? (I have funds on my account to purchase the service)

And what is this subscription about? how does it work and how can i turn it off?

[crystal marlin]

If it's asking you about a credit card inside the paypal window while trying to pay, that's most probably related to paypal

[long trench]

And by any chance not with the fact that paypal simply gives you a tryhackme card so that they can take money from donation every month?

[crystal marlin]

Could you rephrase that as I'm not quite sure what you mean ?

[long trench]

is that in my opinion I should not be asked for a card as I have funds in my account

although I suspect that paypal is asking me for a card so that it can activate their "subscription", which I don't even know how it works and how I can turn it off later

[errant valley]

Hey, sorry about that. I ended up finding an old walkthrough. The identifier slightly changed. From SO to SU or something?

[crystal marlin]

Well like I said, that's up to paypal and most probably not because THM choose to do so. And I suspect it is as this a recurring payment, they want some kind of security that the payment could be done every month.

[long trench]

ok, how can i turn off this subscription afterwards?

[crystal marlin]

You just cancel it in your thm account.

[trail yacht]

SO you mean it changed from DCU0234 to DCO0234 ?

[long trench]

when I cancel subscription?

[crystal marlin]

When are you going to cancel it ? Well that's up to you obviously ^^

[errant valley]

That sounds right!

[long trench]

because I would only like to buy this service for a month, and I am afraid that if I give my card, then I will have a problem to cancel the subscription.

[crystal marlin]

Well you could get the subscription and right after that cancel it, so you are not getting charged after the month is over but still be able to access all the subscriber stuff within the month you paid for.

[long trench]

ok, have you ever bought this service?

[crystal marlin]

Sure, you can click on my name here in discord for example, everyone who has the "subscriber" role is actually buying the subscription.

[long trench]

have you had any problems with this tryhackme subscription?

[crystal marlin]

Nope

This is a very legit and well known site, so there is no need to worry that much 😄

Not a site issue but your JTR version is broken.

There are some steps online that might work (you will have to google your error), but the only way I fixed this was literally by reinstalling and setting up the whole of John.

[keen scroll]

I had this issue during one KoTH game. john wasn't working for my regular user. I had a terminal session logged in as root and tried there.
It worked for it.
So possibly, you can try to clear the .config or .cache for john

install after purge should work as well

BTW, for me john stopped working after Ctrl+C (I used that to stop it)

Why am I getting SSH connection timeouts when trying to connect to THM machines? I’m connected to the VPN and have tried different config files (on my 3rd). It worked before but now it isn’t working at all.

[haughty glacier]

#site-support message

it might be related to this

[keen scroll]

I was testing this MTU size stuff recently.
If this solves your issue, and you want to keep this change.
Create a backup before testing it out
You can add the following line to your .ovpn file

tun-mtu 1200

[stable island]

I made all the changes but still getting timeout. I could visit the 10.10.10.10 webpage and it said I am connected the servers. I ran the GitHub ovpn troubleshoot tool as well but that still hasn’t helped.

[haughty glacier]

can you advise what you are trying to do exactly?

@stable island

[stable island]

I’m using Kali Linux in a virtual box and trying to connect to the NMAP machine in my lessons

[haughty glacier]

is the room you are doing nmap?

[stable island]

Yes, as part of the complete beginner pathway

[haughty glacier]

what task are you up to? (trying to find one that requires ssh)

[crystal marlin]

Did you read the "Please note:" in task 1 ?

[haughty glacier]

yeah, I think your main issue here is that machine likely doesn't even have ssh and I don't think any of the tasks require it

[stable island]

I’m in task 4. I just read that note now. I guess this is my problem all along.

[haughty glacier]

so, you use that machine as the target of your nmap scans (that you run from your kali system)

should be good to go 😄 haha

[stable island]

I’ll be sure to read everything thoroughly to avoid this. I’m going to try SSH a machine that actually requires it to check everything is still working

[haughty glacier]

ok

[stable island]

I successfully logged into Linux fundamentals part 2 machine. Things are working. It was just me being a complete beginner and not reading things properly. Thanks for pointing me in right direction

[haughty glacier]

main takeaway here would be just remember not all machines will have a website, not all will have ssh etc etc just follow the instructions and if something doesn't make sense, you likely missed something (on a walkthrough room), doesn't hurt to ask though 🙂

[stable island]

Yep I 100% will keep this in mind. Note taken 👍

[harsh ferry]

I'm trying to access https://tryhackme.com/room/rpmetasploit but the loading time is endless..

[haughty glacier]

loaded for me pretty quickly

maybe refresh your page or browser? other stuff working OK?

it does have an embedded video that might make it take a bit longer than a room without

[naive dust]

I tried for weeks and let it load for an hour in a tab, it doesn't load

https://tryhackme.com/room/hackpark doesn't load

[naive dust]

same here, doesn't load

I think we can narrow it done to rooms that have embedded media (video) that tries it to autoplay when loading room

[crystal marlin]

I see you talking about that for days already, maybe try to send them an email to [e-mail] to see if you can get some help with that 😄

[naive dust]

I was sent over to this channel

[crystal marlin]

Oh okay :/

[naive dust]

so if you a thm staff, maybe you open a ticket?

as it seems others have same problem?

what do you think?

[crystal marlin]

And to just turn off your personal VPN is no option for you? Or maybe try to use a different VPN provider.

[naive dust]

No way

[crystal marlin]

I'm not staff

[naive dust]

ok

[crystal marlin]

Because it appears to have something to do with your VPN provider. I tried the same pages with my personal VPN provider and it was working just fine.

[naive dust]

Yes, because I configured the VPN to block trackiing, ads, and crap sites

[keen scroll]

Is the issue because of the embedded video script making some HTTP requests that are getting blocked by your external VPN causing the room page to not load anything after that?

[naive dust]

exactly

[bronze vale]

k4wld, I responded in #site-bugs, if you're purposely blocking traffic and it's denying access to our site, that's not our problem 🙂

[keen scroll]

Isn't there any option to provide a whitelist for some requests?

[naive dust]

lol

[crystal marlin]

Straight, but right 😄

[naive dust]

not our problem, that's the asnwer we love

[bronze vale]

Well, it isn't:)

As you're purposely changing configurations and interfering with the traffic, that's something you're doing.

If it works perfectly fine without and whatever you are doing is interfering with it, then it's not something we're going to "fix".

[keen scroll]

You can probably try to allow some of those HTTP requests, I don't think they can cause any issues.
Given that they are provided on TryHackMe site

[naive dust]

the good thing is that 98% of the rroms work just fine

so if you keep these rooms with loading videos as is, it's your decision

I can't do anything about it

[keen scroll]

I mean, you cannot say that the TryHackMe site is slow because you want to use tor (just an example)🙂

[eager fulcrum]

So, to be clear, your VPN is breaking the site?

[naive dust]

yes, I have tracking protection on, similar to pi-hole. It's blocking porn etc, crap sites

so I can't switch that off

[eager fulcrum]

So your tracking protection is getting a false positive, and breaking the site.
Wouldn't you agree that means the issue lies in the tracking protection, not the site?

[naive dust]

Yes, the ask to make the rooms like the 98% that just works and not load videos when starting the room and autoplay

it's a change I agree

[tribal bolt]

Hey could I get some quick help with something friends

[eager fulcrum]

The fault lies with the VPN, fix that?

[tribal bolt]

I'm trying to download my openvpn access configuration file thing, but it just 404s every time. I've googled it and it seems like other people have had this issue (forum posts on the site), but nobody seems to have figured out a solution.

What's the nmap command you are using?

[long trench]

nmap ip

[crystal marlin]

That's it? If yes, by default nmap only scans the 1000 most common ports, so if the open port is outside that scope, you won't find it without to specify how many ports to scan

[long trench]

only when it scans a telnet port does it show that it is closed

[crystal marlin]

Sry, could you rephrase that as I didn't understand?

[long trench]

I entered the command:
nmap -p23 ip
and showed me that the port is closed

[crystal marlin]

Alright, then the port is closed ^^ Why does the telnet port has to be on port 23?

[long trench]

because they have not written anywhere that there should be others. So that's what they meant, I guess

[crystal marlin]

Well like I said, you have to do a proper nmap scan to find the open ports. Only scanning 1000 ports might be not enough.

[long trench]

that is, scan all?

[haughty glacier]

the room is a walkthrough and it tells you what to do for each question, and I don't see any stating to do nmap -p23 ip

[crystal marlin]

Right, do a proper scan.

[long trench]

ok sorry for the bother

it turned out that he is on a different port

sorry for wasting your time

[crystal marlin]

Not a problem, glad you found it.

[quiet elm]

Yeah, but then there's also this.

I think it's more related to some background timezone stuff idk

[long trench]

😄

[crystal marlin]

Oh, ye I'm not saying that you didn't answered a question each day, just wanted to point that out for the yearly activity, so that you are not going to rely on that chart for the daily streak 😄

[ebon ore]

hey so I havent been in this server much and as such am not sure if this is a common issue but I connected to the open vpn on laptop with kali running on a virtual box within it (the vpn is running on the normal windows) and on tryhackme it says im connected to the vpn and have an ip and everything but when im trying to connect to any machine I run (such as the one needed for vulversity) it cannot ping the ip or access it in any way

[haughty glacier]

you should connect to the VPN from within your VPN

[haughty glacier]

did you add the entries to /etc/hosts ?

[crisp wolf]

Quick question, when you connect to OpenVPN, it should be no different than connected to an attackbox right? I tried going to the local hosted site when connected through OpenVPN and it'd just keep loading

[haughty glacier]

if you have done it right, it should be

[crisp wolf]

Hmm well I can't connect to the address for some reason by using OpenVPN

either that or I'm just dumb

[haughty glacier]

ok well, how are you connected? using a kali VM?

someone might accidentally copy ur username for whatever reason too btw probably not a very safe one to use here

(or anywhere)

[river urchin]

i would like to ask a question (i am new )

i already connect to open vpn successfully , but i also cant see any thing like attack box appear

and i am using window ,not linux

its it need to use linux althought i success connect to tryhackme mechine

im not understand about the how attack box and the open vpn work...........

[hollow otter]

Check out this room https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn

[river urchin]

i watch many time already

but mine is not same as the web teach

[hollow otter]

What room you were asking?

[river urchin]

Linux Fundamentals Part 2

[hollow otter]

are you in task 2 atm?

[river urchin]

yayaya

it say need my linus system

but im using window ,can?

the tryhackme attack box is expired

[hollow otter]

you have to use attack machine iirc for fundamentals 2, click this to start

I use my windows machine when I did this room while ago

[river urchin]

i dont subscribe and it limit is over

i try to use another method "via openvpn"

[hollow otter]

oh so you cant even spawn it?

[river urchin]

yah

its it same if i connect to openvpn and using cmd (window)?

same as the attack box? the result came out is same?

[hollow otter]

i believe so

its using ssh

[river urchin]

ssh?

sry im new

a thing like linux and window?

[hollow otter]

ssh is secure shell

task 2 suppose to teach you how to use ssh to connect to a machine

[river urchin]

the mechine is mean like a computer?

[hollow otter]

yes

[river urchin]

the tryhackme given mechine is like a virtual mechine right?

[hollow otter]

yes, virtual machine as our target

[river urchin]

open vpn is using to connect to tryhackme network

what different between connect to tryhackme betwork and non-connect

what function of tryhackme network?

[hollow otter]

I believe this room explain it well what is thm openvpn network

[river urchin]

oops sry i missed it out ""However, to access these machines you need to be connected to our network.""

[hollow otter]

what task? i dont remember ever change user to root

[night sand]

Its Task 6

[regal hemlock]

unable to ping this machine but and i am successfully connect through vpn

[novel inlet]

for some reason I can't catch any shells

but the vpn works

I've had this issue across my last few rooms

even when I try to mimic a writeup to confirm it doesn't work, it doesn't

I tried regenerating but that doesn't fix it

and I'm on EU-VIP-2 and EU-VIP-1

[regal hemlock]

so what i do any solution

[novel inlet]

not every machine responds to icmp

[plucky moon]

tryhackme@10.10.60.229: Permission denied (publickey).Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?

its the burpsuite room

[novel inlet]

it means you need a private key and a public key in authorized_keys

to connect through ssh

[plucky moon]

where do I get them?

ssh works fine on other rooms

and I have my ovpn working fine in another terminal

[regal hemlock]

so how can i scan the port not blue machine also not responding

[novel inlet]

man nmap

also it literally tells you

[regal hemlock]

nmap also not working

Hey, so uh if I ping the IP address of a VM deployed on TryHackMe it should respond if it's functional, right?

not always, and not that often even

[wind mortar]

Oh they've got no internet connection right

[haughty glacier]

they just might not be configured to respond to pings

and well they have no internet mostly but that should be irrelevant if you are using the VPN or attackbox as it puts you on the same network

@ebon ore I am having similar issues a yesterday. No luck even with attack box or room such as set,

[flat pecan]

Not sure if this is the right place but is anyone having an issues with Autopsy in Disk Analysis & Autopsy? I can’t extract any files, they are extracted with 0 bytes. Can review the registry either.

[echo moon]

Whats the best thing to do if the flag is not where it is supposed to be? I am guessing its just reboot the box but hopeful thats not the case.

[crystal marlin]

How do you know where it is supposed to be ?

[echo moon]

The Alfred box gives the location for the root.txt.

[crystal marlin]

Ok, well unless you have deleted it I would say it should be at the location where they said it should be. But unfortunately I have not done that room, but would be the first time I heard that a reboot would solve the flag not being there, but maybe it does.

[echo moon]

ya, seems odd for it to not be there. Guess I will terminate and start again.

Hello anyone help me

i got my access succesfully

but i cant ssh to the mechine ,why?

[crystal marlin]

I don't see any information in that room that you would be able to ssh into that machine, it's most probably just a target machine for you to attack and not to ssh into.

[river urchin]

Erm so what is that mechine use for?

[crystal marlin]

To attack it. Like scan it, try to gain access to it via an exploit etc.

[stray cove]

that machine probably doesn't have SSH, might have RDP though.

[river urchin]

Ermm....how can i attack it?

Use attaack box?

[stray cove]

it should open in the split view

[crystal marlin]

Yes, or use your own setup, like a VM.

[river urchin]

VM?

[river urchin]

😅

[stray cove]

oh waitr

I need to read

[river urchin]

Oh yah ic that , so this mechine is browser-based mechine?

[crystal marlin]

A virtual machine with for example a kali linux on it.

[river urchin]

Erm.....yah i dont have kali linux as iam using window

[stray cove]

naw they were referring to the attackbox

[crystal marlin]

Yes, that's why I said using a virtual machine 🙂

[river urchin]

Oh

[stray cove]

so the room is a guided room, just go step by step

you're skipping ahead a bit too much

[river urchin]

So i just use attack box to attack the mechine ?

[river urchin]

Oh yah it seen like im worried too much

[crystal marlin]

Like I said, yes use the attackbox or set up your own virtual machine to attack it.

[stray cove]

it probably doesn't expose ssh in any case

going to check

[river urchin]

Yah my problem is i set up my virtual mechine in the pass is using ssh to the THM virtual mechine

So this time i cant ssh to it make me confused

[stray cove]

ok there's a bunch of stuff open, but not 22 😉

[crystal marlin]

I think you are confusing something or I didn't understand you correctly. But the virtual machine to attack would be same as the attackbox, but it's just locally on your own system rather then being a web based machine to attack. It's like having another computer where for example kali linux would be the operating system rather then windows which is on your current computer.

[stray cove]

unless they did something like Linux Fundamentals 1 first, which had an in-browser interface

[river urchin]

Oh yah

[river urchin]

oh i try to understand just now . u mean that window is not a virtual mechine that is able to attack?

so i need to get a virtual mechine from
attack box
thm given virtual mechine or
mine virtual mevhine

i can use virtual mechine to attack by this three method ?

[crystal marlin]

No I'm saying you are kind of limited to use your windows operating system to attack targets. So kali linux for example is an operating system being packed with lot's of tools for penetration testing. Just google "set up kali linux virtual machine" maybe you'll understand better then. The attackbox on THM has nothing to do with installing your own locally virtual machine. But of course you can just use the attackbox, but as you are not a subscriber you are limited to 1 hour per day to use it.

[river urchin]

erm... so the virtual box of kali linux is a type of vitual mechine?

like this?

[haughty glacier]

what have you been doing on the site so far to get to 0x5?

you have two main options to connect to the site, attack box (web hosted system on THM), or using OpenVPN from your own system

most people using the OpenVPN route do it within a virtual machine for security & to use something like kali to hack with

the machine you deployed earlier is a 'target' machine - that you would attack with either the attackbox or OpenVPN connected system.

[river urchin]

ohohoh it mean thm got provide two type mechine to use?

[haughty glacier]

well THM provides "Targets" within rooms

and it provides and "attack box" you attack the "target" with

Up the top is the "Attack Box" - that you attack with
Down the bottom is the "Start Machnie" - the target you deploy to attack

[crystal marlin]

Maybe watch that and get familiar with the kali virutal machine or just virtual machines in general. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX75Z-4MEoM

[river urchin]

Oh yah

What to do if my attack box is over limit

I got non-sunscribe

Use mine virtual mechine(like kali linux) to connect to thm network to attack the target mechine

[crystal marlin]

That's where you either subscribe or get a virtual machine.

[river urchin]

It is?

[haughty glacier]

like I said earlier, you can use OpenVPN to connect to the THM network and use your own system to attack the target

[river urchin]

Finally i understand it

[haughty glacier]

you don't need a "virtual machine" @crystal marlin that is not the technology that allows you to do it

though, most people would do it from a virtual machine

[river urchin]

Erm.....i confused again

[crystal marlin]

Not sure what you mean.

[river urchin]

Is it the kali linux as a type of virtual mechine?

If yes why @haughty glacier say no need virtual mechine

[haughty glacier]

https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn

[haughty glacier]

you said you either subscribe or get a virtual machine, you either use attackbox or connect with openvpn

you can connect with openvpn from anything

[river urchin]

Oh oh oh

[river urchin]

So kali linux is a virtual mechine ? But we still need to connect to open vpn to acces thm network right

[haughty glacier]

however, yes, look into setting up a virtual machine for kali
https://www.kali.org/docs/virtualization/install-virtualbox-guest-vm/

[crystal marlin]

Well, he is on a windows machine, so I don't think it's a good choice to just connect with open vpn and then go to attack targets. So that's why I'm letting him know to get a virtual machine with kali linux on it.

[haughty glacier]

kali linux is an operating system

people use virtualisation software to run it within their operating system

that guide I linked above shows you how

[river urchin]

Yah yah im using window so .....yab that is mine problem @crystal marlin thank

[scenic torrent]

Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin

[river urchin]

So i still can get linux if i use window as my operating system

[haughty glacier]

yes. that is the idea of a virtual machine

[river urchin]

As an example download the virtual box and install the kali linux ,then connect to open vpn then access to thm network , right?

[crystal marlin]

Right.

[haughty glacier]

yeah, download virtualbox > import kali > download ur OpenVPN config inside Kali > Conenct via terminal to OpenVPN > proceed to do THM

[river urchin]

Hurry i finally understand what is the concept of virtual box..

[river urchin]

Not being able to ping a machine doesn't automatically mean there is something wrong.

[deft gulch]

I did run the troubleshooting script

[deft gulch]

I tried to access the machine using ssh command
but it is not getting connected

[crystal marlin]

Could you try to open 10.10.10.10 in the browser of the machine you tried to ssh with and let me know if that works?

Yes, it is working now

it is doing of 1 password with hydra

every second

What do you mean by that?

[kindred pagoda]

hydra 18 tries a minute

[kindred pagoda]

i am not sure i closed my previous rooms and attack boxes

[keen scroll]

Those should terminate automatically once you leave them🤔

[kindred pagoda]

18 tries a minute for hydra is not much right

[keen scroll]

By rooms, I guess you are talking about target machines that you get to deploy in the rooms. Those are also terminated after one hour if you don't extend their time

[kindred pagoda]

2 hours

will wait then I guess

[keen scroll]

It depends upon the target machine whether it is causing delays between consecutive trials

[kindred pagoda]

its the H4cked room

[keen scroll]

Please refer to #room-help 🙂

Hi, I can’t access the machine IP address provided in the tutorial

[crystal marlin]

Are you opening the IP inside the browser of the attackbox or you trying to open it on your own machines browser?

[elder saddle]

Am able to access the machine using browser, am on exploiting SMB tutorial then I used the IP address of the system allocated for my tutorial to try out the commands as it were on instruction menu, it’s not working. Most commands am typing on CLI isn’t working

I used “enum4linux-A (ip address of the machine info I got connected to) it’s not showing information about the system. I got error with that I couldn’t complete the task

[crystal marlin]

Oh I thought you were talking about the "tutorial" room 😄

Hmm hmm

[crystal marlin]

Maybe lets move that to #room-help as I don't think it's a technical issue.

[dusk linden]

Hey, I'm experiencing issues with the zthobscurewebvulns Task 18 [Section 3.5 - JWT]: Challenge Machine (JWT_2). It fires up and gives me an IP, but whatever app is there appears to hang and eventually time out.

There's a web server running (can be confirmed by random URLs returning 404). From reading around the web I would expect the /auth end point to do something at least but it times out as per above. Let me know if there's any more info I can provide 🙂

Can confirm all the obvious too: no proxy, other machines work just fine, have tried turning it on and off a few times.

[crystal marlin]

I don't know that room, but if you face some kind of connection issues while being connected via openvpn you could try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that solves your issue. If it doesn't solve it just put it back to 1500. If you are on the web based attackbox, just forget what I wrote 😄

[dusk linden]

That did the trick. Thanks!

[random lynx]

Hello people, I'm having trouble on the Upload Vulnerabilities room, I added the host to /etc/hosts as specified in the beginning of the room and I am able to access the different websites from my browser, but Burp fails to. When I turn on intercept and forward the request, it never comes back and I have an error in the dashboard "Error Proxy Failed to connect to java.uploadvulns.thm:80", I did not find any solution from Burp doc so far, did anyone ever had this problem ?

[crystal marlin]

Check your /etc/hosts file if you accidentally added the hosts multiple times.

[random lynx]

Indeed there were two lines, changed it and restared burp and it's working 🙂 Didn't know about this thank you very much for the help

[blazing laurel]

Is there an issue doing Task 26 in the OWASP Top 10 Course ("Insecure Deserialization - Code Execution") from the Attack Box? I've successfully generated the encoded string after creating the script, but it's having no effect when I replace that value for the field in my cookie. Any idea what I might be missing? I've checked my script letter-for-letter and copy-pasted against successful writeups, but refreshing the page after updating the encodedPayload just instantly refreshes with no nc connection.

[hard fractal]

the red box on top of the rooms is not changing to green...
When we access a machine and connect to VPN we see the ip of the vpn on top in a green box(which without connection is red and say access machine)
But this is not happening in the case of Indian VPN servers

[crystal marlin]

So could you connect to the THM network with openvpn and send a screenshot of the output of openvpn?

[crystal marlin]

You have to verify first in order to be able to send screenshots.

Access Machines?

yes

[keen scroll]

Is it affecting you in any way?

[hard fractal]

yes i need my machine ip which is generally displayed in that spot to be visible

[crystal marlin]

You can get you IP by typing ifconfig in your terminal, it will be the tun0 interface

[keen scroll]

Are you talking about target machine ip?

[hard fractal]

🤦🏻 DUH...

i need a couple of screenshots of that portal and want it to have the ip

[hard fractal]

no...

[keen scroll]

Ok, the web page won't show your IP in that spot if that's what you are asking. (EDIT: it does show that)
You can instead visit https://tryhackme.com/access and have your IP displayed there

I have an assignment to submit and this ss thing is irritating me... Proctors wants me to send with ip on that page

[keen scroll]

I was wrong, it does show you your IP.
Try switching to the correct server here and it should show your IP at your described location

You don't need to regenerate or use a different VPN config
Only select the correct VPN Server from the drop-down list

[hard fractal]

yeah now u got me right... so the thing is for Indian servers the Access Machines is not changing for the ip!

[hard fractal]

if we connect to a ovpn file of indian server the access machines part is not changing else it is!

[keen scroll]

So you have IN-... selected there and you are using IN-... config file?

[hard fractal]

yes sir...

[keen scroll]

There have been some issues with that part of the site, VPN config
If you are required to add your IP in your screenshot for any assignment, please consult with your mentor
Or you can edit that Access Machines element to show your IP, if you can 😅

[hard fractal]

😂 yeah i am keeping that as the last resort

[keen scroll]

You just need to change the class attribute from thm-disconnected to thm-connected and change Access Machines text to your IP

[hard fractal]

yeah right...
Thanx man for helping me out!!

[river urchin]

I tried to change my payment info but i don't see an option, so i decided to cancel the subscription but I still don't know how to do it 'cause this button appear. My subscription end yesterday. Can you help me?

[haughty glacier]

does clicking that button do anything?

I think usually after you cancel, you have to wait till it expires before you can re-subscribe

that button kinda looks like what you want?

[bronze vale]

Cancel your subscription then resubscribe with your new details:)

All you need to do now is wait for the time you paid for to expire

[keen sparrow]

if i click the button it like i never cancel the subscription but it dont let me change my payment info and my subscription expire end yesterday

[frosty bramble]

Hi! I'm getting still the 404 error code when trying to download an OpenVPN from EU-Regular-1 -server or from EU-Regular-2 -server. I've been trying these instructions: #site-support message but didn't help. I've also tried to make a new account, but same thing. Any ideas? I've been using USA East, but eg NMAPing is so slow that it makes it tedious, living in Europe. :D I'll try to make a new account again, and see if it would this time work. Thanks in advance! :)

Edit: I've tried to use another browser that did not have any kind of extensions but did not work either.

[rancid plinth]

Same here.

[humble cradle]

Yep same here

So what is the problemo?

[rancid plinth]

Is it just me or even after connecting openvpn (Initialization Sequence Completed) it shows disconnected? It's been 15 mins now and several refresh.

[rapid shore]

Same here re. 404

[humble cradle]

Yep

[thick oak]

Is it possible to change my display name on the site?

[haughty glacier]

as per pins
#site-support message

[thick oak]

dunka

Thats not really what Im looking for

Unless I am blind

[haughty glacier]

is username something other than display name?

[thick oak]

No, but I wanna change it on THM, not in here

Or are you saying there isnt a way to do it on my own, to email support. If so, thank you!

[haughty glacier]

lol, yes you have to email

[thick oak]

Word, appreciated

[haughty glacier]

np

[thick oak]

https://tenor.com/view/bros-the-office-love-fist-bump-gif-13830753

[crystal marlin]

I would not rely on that "disconnected graph", rather just try if you can access machines.

[rancid plinth]

Nope I cannot access machine too.

[crystal marlin]

So just to clarify, you can not access a target machine or you simply can not access 10.10.10.10 in your browser which would just show you that you are connected?

[rancid plinth]

Cannot access 10.10.10.10

[crystal marlin]

So I would try if you can access a target machine, maybe it's just somehow not working properly as the website does. Btw, you keep the terminal open where you started openvpn and you are also not pressing ctrl + C after connecting via openvpn? Because if you close the terminal where you started openvpn you will get disconnected.

[rancid plinth]

Nope no ctrl+c

[crystal marlin]

And you also keep that terminal open and just minimise it rather then closing it?

[rancid plinth]

Yes 😆

Let me send you screenshot again

[crystal marlin]

Mh, well. Then I don't know, as the open vpn output looks pretty normal as far as it is visible in your picture.

[rancid plinth]

instead I can use Attack box but for 1 time only

[crystal marlin]

Have you already tried to change VPN server, regenerate a new config file and try again with that new config file?

[rancid plinth]

Yes. This is the same problem I faced #site-support message
Even tried #site-support message but no luck

[crystal marlin]

Well then your problem might be that you are using a old openvpn config as you tried to regenerate a new one, so I believe that old config file will not working anymore.

[rancid plinth]

That is also not a problem, as soon as I regenerated IN-regular-1 (||btw this vpn server is working, I mean I can just connect openvp||) I downloaded new config file and connected with openvpn

Anyway Let me use Attackbox for today, I'll checkout openvpn stuff after day or two.

[undone river]

I didnt have a problem using the vpn I had a problem downloading the configuration in the first place. We solved it, though we had to switch to IN servers while we are from EU

[rancid plinth]

Yup its working for me too
thanks everyone

nmap [IP]
nmap -sS [IP]
nmap -sT [IP]

This is on network services 1 / FTP / Question 1

The only port i can see is Port 21 FTP, but the answer is 2

I did a mistake or not enough precisions in my command ?

maybe try a full scan with -p-

its weird because the other open port is the port 80

Hey guys - I've just enrolled in the Pre-Security pathway but I previous completed the cat linux.txt badge / rooms (linux part 1-3) but in the Pre-security pathway its saying I have not completed them... is this a bug or intended?

Some context ^

[crystal marlin]

Have you tried to do a hard refresh with ctrl + F5 if you are on chrome or firefox?

[agile carbon]

I hadn't but just tried, showing incomplete still ^^ thanks

[elfin swan]

i remember having that bug also back in the day. I can't recall exactly what I did to resolve it. I think I actually just went through each page in the room and made sure I hadn't missed any "completes"

[agile carbon]

Sure, I'll give that a go, thanks S0cket

[crystal marlin]

Well these rooms also got updated, so if it was ago quite a while when you did them you received the badge for the older linux Fundamentals rooms but haven't done the new ones.

[agile carbon]

Aye its been maybe 4 months?

[crystal marlin]

Ye then it's most likely that's why

[agile carbon]

Can't hurt to have a refresher, just wanted to check, thanks for the info

You can check by opening that room to see if you solved it, then it is because of the updated rooms: https://tryhackme.com/room/linux1

[glad egret]

Probably the creators-lounge. A mod will have to add you to it

[rancid temple]

this is a problem with only one of the servers. is it a US one? I and a few others have had the same problem. I mentioned it here but no one from thm has acknowledged ityet

[rancid temple]

no clue if this can help, is ad block disabled

[sinful iron]

I had the same issue this morning but it cleared up. Try agin.

[orchid cosmos]

I think so, but will double check.

[sinful iron]

Anyhow, I'm reviewing SMB under the learning thing but the target host doesn't response either by VPN or by using their little 'attack boxes'. Can ping localhost, defaut gw but the target at 10.10.10.2 is dead. is this normal?

[orchid cosmos]

its the firefox inside the vm. does that have ad block on it?

[rancid temple]

i would strongly recommend removing ad blocker on the browser you use for hacking. it can mess up the way the website looks

[rancid temple]

i highly doubt it; i never use the vms. google how to find what firefox extensions are installed

[rancid temple]

try connecting to it with with smbclient or smbmap? it could still be up, just not responding to pings

[sinful iron]

I did

[rancid temple]

and?

[sinful iron]

arp cache empty, smbclient = connection failed, nmo arp cache entry anyhow

simple ping fails

[orchid cosmos]

foxyproxy was the only extension. turning it off had no effect

[rancid temple]

ok, you can rule out firefox extensions as the problem then

[keen scroll]

To which target?
Did you try it with 10.10.10.10?

[sinful iron]

the academic material says 10.10.10.2

no reason to believe .10 is teh target

[rancid temple]

10.10.10.10 is like a test target or something?

i forget, infloop can tell you

[sinful iron]

anyhow, that faild also

[keen scroll]

Actually, 10.10.10.10 is to test your connection to THM network

[sinful iron]

you'd think this platform would work as described

[agile fossil]

Hey, I have a problem with room blue from offensive pentesting. I know which exploi should I use, but it cannot create session and after few tries machine stops responding at all.

I assume your openvpn is working correctly and you are connected.
Could you try to fix your MTU size?

[sinful iron]

yes, connected via VPN and on their little hackbox, neither see .2

[rancid temple]

i would run this https://github.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting

just to be extra sure everything with the vpn is 100%

[sinful iron]

again, i can ping my default gw, localhost and .10 responded. just not .2. It's not a VPN issue

[rancid temple]

derp

[sinful iron]

good answer

[elfin swan]

@sinful iron The machine may not respond to pings

[rancid temple]

have you tried turning it off and back on again? xP

[sinful iron]

we know that. DOesn't respond to smbclient nor nmap

reboted already, re-VPN-ed, got fresh VPN config

[rancid temple]

i see gregs patience slowly dwindling xP

[keen scroll]

Oh ok. The AttackBox should be able to connect to the target.
I knew, GregM might know that😆

[sinful iron]

You'd think

[rancid temple]

well, if 10.10.10.10 works it makes me think the problem is with the box he's targeting. if he reverted, i'm unsure where to go from there

[sinful iron]

yes.

but people always blame the messenger

[rancid temple]

ok but admit it

[keen scroll]

Ah, sorry. My text got cut smh😅
There is some other issue

[rancid temple]

lot of the time it is user error xP

[sinful iron]

certainly but I've done all the troubleshooting things imaginable to me

wonder if my 10. network is causing this. I'm on a 192 but tun0/VPN.

[rancid temple]

me and infloop don't have premium so we can't boot up the room ourselves xP

hold up

your tun0 lhost is on 10. right lol

[sinful iron]

yes

[rancid temple]

any firewall rules ?

[sinful iron]

not on the host

[rancid temple]

you could have smb not allowed outbound

router maybe?

shit vpn

[sinful iron]

that wouldn't explain why ICMP fails

[rancid temple]

do we know if the box is supposed to respond

to those

[keen scroll]

He tried with AttackBox as well so no interference from his system in any way🤔

[rancid temple]

i conclude the box is messed up

you two have fun with this, i got PWK machines to pwn

Hi all, is it just me or does network connection to the machines become unstable during rush hour?

[crystal marlin]

What you mean by that, so what's happening?

[rustic sand]

I know my connection is stable but I am constantly losing connection to the boxes I am attacking, and I only got this behavior during what I can interpret as EU rush hour

and I was just trying to figure out if in fact it has something to do with network traffic

[crystal marlin]

So I assume you are using your own machine connected with openvpn?

[rustic sand]

yeap

[crystal marlin]

Well if you say that's only happening while "rush hour" then it might be really just because of that. Either way, the next time you face that issue you could try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that solves your issue, if it does - great, otherwise just put it back to 1500.

[rustic sand]

Thanks but why would that help me?

[crystal marlin]

Because that's an already known solution for such connection issues here. But like I said, if it's not helping you just put it back to 1500.

[rustic sand]

Ah, ok. Didn't know that. Thanks @crystal marlin

[naive dust]

quick question if I run kali linux on my Virtual box do i need to lauch open vpn on mac or install and run it in the virutal box?

[noble dawn]

I have been having troubles with very slow connections when accessing any of the rooms http sites through OpenVPN. The page will get hung up when they try to access a cloudfare or bootstrap site. Internet connection should be plenty fast enough.

Disregard. Read back through and setting the mtu to 1200 seems to work well enough.

[fluid comet]

you can run it in the VM itself. here is the command

sudo openvpn <your ovpn file>

[crystal marlin]

Yes, you have to run it inside your kali VM, otherwise that will cause issues with reverse shells and so on.

any one know if there's a convenient page that shows all currently running vms? it would be nice to see where i have left the lights on, as well as have one page to refer to for the IP, time, and similar info

[zealous yoke]

This is what you need (: https://tryhackme.com/api/vm/running you can see the room code here and then navigate to that in your browser and terminate the vm etc

there is a javascript snippet to terminate all of them at one time but I can't quite remember what it is with the new API route

[vapid mirage]

oohh api :3

are there any api docs out of intrest? that answers that question tho 🙂

thank you

[zealous yoke]

There is, but the api docs currently are quite out of date as of recent (as we just had a whole refactor for the API see here: #announcements message). To be completely honest, I really haven't had the time to update them @vapid mirage

Maybe I can make some time over the next week or so but here is a community repo for the API, no reason why others cant commit ((:

https://github.com/thm-community/thm-api-docs

the only actively maintained API docs are our education & business APIs (:

I'll work on the community/site stuff when I can

[vapid mirage]

Thanks I'll give it a look

[valid drift]

M not able to upgrade to premium, it's not accepting payment

[vapid mirage]

Is the thm-api-py the current API code?

I can connect to other VPN's via openvpn (https method) without issue.

Can someone please help me out?

[rapid shore]

I'm still getting 404 on my EU regular openvpn config download. Tried everything I can find/have been suggested here, including regenerating (and waiting 5 min), changing VPN server, logging out and in. I'm at a loss here, no idea what to do. Anyone?
