so i've connected to a vpn but i can't access the site of the room machine that is running through my virtualbox that i connected with, but on the attackbox i can access the site
i get response when i ping the room machine with my virtualbox but the site won't load on browser
What room
vulnversity
im pretty sure it isn't the rooms fault
and im just doing something wrong
Where is openvpn running, inside your VM or on your host machine?
yeah it's running on my virtualbox
And only inside that?
yes
What's the output of ps aux | grep openvpn when you run that in your VMs terminal?
1 sec
i'll ping you when i fix a issue
seems like my virtualbox froze just now
smh
@crystal marlin ok so there are 2 processes that are running ovpn with root access
im connected with the vpn but just can't access the site on the vuln room through my virtualbox
but attackbox can access the site
Post the output pls
My hololive instance seems broken is there any way to get a different one? I got a reset done but the webserver is still not working
of the ps aux?
yes
root 1154 0.0 0.0 10936 5144 pts/0 S+ 09:55 0:00 sudo openvpn myuser.ovpn

Okay, do you have accidentally foxyproxy enabled in your browser?
foxyproxy isn't even installed
Oh okay, have you tried to access it with a different browser already?
nop

currently using NAT
yeah ok i fixed it @crystal marlin
it was cause of NAT
switched to bridged
@crystal marlin thanks for the help

anyone know why my kali machine keeps starting without gui
i have to type startx every time
Have you googled "kali machine keeps starting without gui" already? As I see pretty many results to that search
yeah it all says stuff about reinstalling the desktop environment
but i've done all of those
i assume the solution is having something run on startup but idk
I have no clue about it, but for example have you tried that?
login to tty1
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get install -f gdm3
Done , problem slove
yeah thats what i tried

im trying to install a tool called snoopy-ng from https://github.com/sensepost/snoopy-ng however running this install.sh script i get a bunch of errors:
Package python-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
python2 python2-dev python-dev-is-python3

How to git clone on attackbox
It has no wifi and I need to git clone to get a php thing
You can't
No internet connection
If you wanna add more tools set up your own vm
Hi, so my machine is not being deployed, am I doing something wrong orr missing something 
the machine did get deployed, but the 'machine_ip' templates in the texts of the tasks weren't populated with the IP address of the machine
this is an error i've seen that occurs sometimes
nops, the website or http://IP:3000 not opening
either connect to OpenVPN or use the AttackBox, then go to http://10.10.92.240:3000
there's also a chance the machine isn't up yet, as the task states that the machine could take up to 3 minutes to boot
😳 this isn't my first room bro but it ain't getting deployed
ohh, it just worked, I was trying for like 30 minutes 💀
Hey guys does anyone know how I can see the full results of my lioness. ? I can’t see it all 😑😑
hey, im doing network services 2, and I cant access the machine on task 9, the machine is on but dont respond to any of my pings and nmap tells me its not up. I've waited, and I've terminated it and started it again but nothing is working
what should I do?
nvm I got it working
Hello, everybody else using debian 10 has the problem, that you cant use the other tabs in the thm rooms? (global)?
Like when I hit writeup nothing changes
Hey everybody. I keep deploying the machine in https://tryhackme.com/room/kuberneteschalltdi2020 and it never seems to start up Kube service so I can complete the room. Is the room somehow b0rked? Port 6443 SHOULD have come up, and it hasn't. I have tried cycling the VM several times, and the only port that ever opens is SSH (22).
Having issues with the "Vulnerversity" machine. I can connect to other machines no problem but that one I'm unable to connect to, but it does respond to ping requests. Doesn't work regardless of whether I use OpenVPN or the Attack Box. Worked a couple days ago but I haven't been able to get it working the past day or so. Have tried stopping and starting multiple times, waiting up to half an hour for it to start, etc.
Have you done an nmap scan already?
21, 22, 139, and 445 are open but 80 and 443 are both closed (which shouldn't be the case for this machine)
Who says it shouldn't be the case for that machine? You should do a different nmap scan, as I assume you only scanned 1000 ports.
Because I used it 2 days ago and it was working lol its the one where I have to bruteforce the file upload on /internals/
room/vulnversity ?
Yep
Well, regarding to the answer of task 2 question 7, which I have answered already, the web server is not running on port 80 or 443, so therefore port 80 and 443 doesn't have to be open.
As well as the ports you have found doesn't match the port to answer question 7 of task 2
Oops.. looks like you're right lol I must have been getting it confused with another machine where the web server had been running on 80. IP:3333 works fine 🤦♂️
Since I had already done those sections I conveniently ignored those questions in task 2 thinking I was on the right track
Anyone can help me with debugging an error my windows keeps running into?
I'm going to be learning malware analysis, and I've read that type 1 hypervisors are safer and more isolated than type 2. Should I use xen or kvm? Can I ask for someone to share their malware analysis setup, or link me a guide? Thanks
I'm on Arch if that helps.
´´´Trying to install kali linux following these steps:
- RUN POWERSHELL as administrator
- Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux
- RESTART
- dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart
- dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
- RESTART
- Download Linux Kernel: link removed.
- SET DEFAULT TO WSL 2: wsl --set-default-version 2
- CHECK VERSION: wsl --list --verbose
8 and 9 giving me these responses:
PS C:\Windows\system32> wsl --set-default-version 2
For information on key differences with WSL 2 please visit linkremoved
The operation completed successfully.
PS C:\Windows\system32> wsl --list --verbose
Windows Subsystem for Linux has no installed distributions.
Distributions can be installed by visiting the Microsoft Store: Link removed.
But nothing happens when I try to install kali in winstore, not the first 2nd nor 3rd option for installing. Anybody know how it might be fixed?
Win support gives me an error try again later and their help center produces answer "Help with removing kali linux" when I ask for "Install kali linux" 😦
I can't seem to fully access rooms I've completed. Whenever I try to select a task, it bounces back to Task 1. Makes revision somewhat difficult. Anyone else seen this problem?
Seems to only happen when I'm connected either through openvpn or the Attack Box. Tried it on three different bare metal machines and 5 VMs. Any ideas?
have you considered using virtualbox?
it's a lot more stream-lined
and it's beginner friendly
and/or friendly for me 🙂
I have one at tryhackme
This is more for the fact i want to try linux
Never had it and pretty done with win atm
send a dm, accept?
anyways, this is probably what you want to try @royal kindle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyi-NuqiLr0
Virtual machines allow one or more 'guest' operating systems to run inside another. This is useful when you need access to multiple operating systems, or for test purposes. In this video I use the Oracle open source application VirtualBox to create virtual machines in Windows 10 and Linux Mint.
The VirtualBox website is at: https://www.virtualb...
if you like it, you can wipe windows later, and if not, you can just uninstall virtualbox and destroy the image
Hi, today I paid price of subscription double accidentally. How can I return it back? I mailed to support@tryhackme.com

Hi
I am in room "Nmap Live Host Discovery" and it will not work . I have got to 45% done, but every time I click on something the page just refreshes. Cannot do anything on it now. Has anyone had this issue before? Can you help please, it has been like it a few days now and i have been in and out a number of times, but it is always the same
Cannot come further in my room or am i just dumb?
aha i cannot post a pic, gimme a sec
There's something weir in THM website in any rooms. Let's say I am in a room with 3 "tasks" and I've completed the first one. I'm now working on task 2 but when I need to go back and click on the task 1 dropdown title, it's actually reloading the entire page and force me to stay in task 2 ! .. Cleared Chrome cache / logout then login but still the same problem.
It's been happening for a couple of days, not got a clue why, but you aren't the only one!
Oh ok.. didn't see tabs "charts, scoreboard, discuss etc..." are not working anymore
hey guys i'm sorry if i can't ask this on here but... how i can get verified and have my badges on discord?

Need help with the vpn. Have connected, can ping boxes I'm trying to attack but if I go to connect to the website I'm trying to attack, it just times out. I've confirmed the website works in an attackbox. Is there something obvious I could be missing? Only outlying data point I can think of is that I'm already behind a vpn, I know double NAT'ing causes problems, could this be a double VPN issue?
Are you on a VM or is it an installed operating system?
So have you tried to turn of that other vpn in order to see if it works?
It's a whole house one, not easy to do
If need be I can, but that's why I figured I'd ask before I went down that garden path.
Can you open 10.10.10.10 in the browser of the machine where the THM vpn is running?
it does not work on both VM and installed os
I guess it could also be a room bug, I'm trying my own machine because the room was acting inconsistently (exact same behavior sometimes working, sometimes just causing the webserver to hang). But it's really weird
Mh? You are having a VM on your machine, even tho you could do the task on the installed os? Bit confused at this point.
What room?
Have you tried if it's working on the attackbox?
Are you on a VM or is it an installed operating system
VM, bridged mode
it works on the attackbox
Where is openvpn running, directly inside your VM or on your host machine?
in the vm
If you enter ifconfig how many tun interfaces can you see?
just one
And the site times out, even if you have foxproxy disabled?
Or it only times out when you try to do the stuff while foxy proxy is enabled and burp is started?
not using foxy proxy at all yet
This is bare browser, I've also tried browser in burpsuite
Are you using the tun0 IP when you are trying the rev shell?
What's the url you try to open?
Can I try to open it on my machine?
I've also confirmed that IP works in an attack box
sure
The messed up part is I got the flag once, doing exactly what I'm doing now
but every time I add the FlagAuthorized header, the site hangs.
Except for that once. Does the same thing in the repeater and the proxy
So I was trying my own kali box instead
Try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that changes anything. In case it doesn't just put it back to 1500
Maybe
hrm, how come you're not getting credit?
Thanks!

All we did was throttle down the packet size right? (want to know the why of the fix if possible)
Yes
yes we already looked at my pb maybe 2 days ago
i though it was for one box, but it is for all of my box
Have you compared your tun0 IP with the IP you used for the rev shell? As I also saw that the machine IP on the access page on THM is not the same as the tun0 IP of your own machine. Also check ifconfig to make sure you only have a tun0 interface and not like tun1, tun2 etc. Also you might be behind a firewall, so worth to check that as well.
Then I don't see why it shouldn't work.
i'm gonna try to contact someone that works for thm
They most likely will refer you to the tech-support channel, but ye, try it 🙂
Hi @crystal marlin , were can post this question ?
Stay at the same page even if i clic on ResetUpload
I'm unfamiliar with room VMs, sry can't help you.
direct me to a channel
Well I told you that I'm unfamiliar with room VMs, so I don't know what channel to direct you 😄
Lol 🤣 , i ll see . All my thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin
Log yourself out and relogin and then click reset upload. It solved the issue for me though.
Thankyou ;)
Issue resolved? let me know.
Yes , i cleared my browser's cache . And reloged . Issue solved
Great. Do let me know when your room is complete. Would love to check it out. Goodluck.
Query: If one uploads a VM - How can its GUI be enabled? like it can be accessed via SSH - But how can we see the VM's GUI? so we have to enable something on our end before uploading?
i'll text you when it's up
hi anyone have this problem ? i can't navigate between this i clear cash and history...
whats the answer to this
What category of ARP Packet asks a device whether or not it has a specific IP address?
Thank you for trying to help me, I have been busy at work that's why I haven't been able to reply to you. Earlier today I did an apt upgrade of my Kali VM. After the upgrade finished I was able to stay connected via RDP to the VM in the room for one hour. So the problem is resolved! However, I am unsure if it was the reboot, the upgrade or both that solved the problem I had.

Hello! I'm kinda having issues connecting to the THM OVPN network and I don't really know what to do about it
I've run the troubleshooting script and it's given me this
no attachments?
okay reran the script and it works
but the machine I'm trying to scan is still showing 0 ports
wonder if its just time to give up
never give up
I just started having this issue where if I click on the task name in a room it automatically reloads the page. I am not sure if its user error or what just driving me crazy. Just started today. Any way to fix?
had this same issue starting yesterday. Was not able to fix with cache either
Have you tried restarting your PC?
I have and it didn’t fix the issue
I also tried CCC which did not work as well
Have you tried logging in on another pc?
to identify the problem this might be helpful
I have not ill see if i can replicate on my macbook
it is happening on my macbook as well
well then you probably can't do anything on your end. Try reaching out to the dev team via https://help.tryhackme.com/ or smth
TryHackMe Support Center helps you to find FAQ, how-to guides and step-by-step tutorials.
Will do. Appreciate the help.
np, good luck

Hello
was having a problem with tryhackme.com
whenever I click on writeups to view the page strangely reloads, is this happening to others?
Hey, This isn't a room help per say, I am doing my Pre-security course and I am trying to just practise installing software on my Linux machine, but on Tryhackme and my own machine, no matter what I try to install I get the same error: Edit: Ive googled, done all the fix's I could find but still nothing, so it must be something I am doing wrong?
Is this something I am doing wrong?
I type wget (url) then I do sudo apt install (name of file)
think u do without ".git"
if from git, u do by "git clone {git url}"
some rooms sites dont work is there a way to fix this I already tried clearing browser data im on Google chrome w/ windows 10
if i wait with it open for a while i get this popup
I will give it a try! thank you in advance!

@long glen exactly when you encountered "The remote desktop server encountered an error and has closed the connection. Please try again or contact your system administrator." this error
@pallid halo, from about last 15 min. I also cleared cookies and site data
I just managed to login via vpn but the box doesn't seem to respond via web
no no i didn't mean that. I mean exact what you did that the error message came
click "start machine" button
in my case it worked normally
can you give a screenshot so that it will be easier to solve

hey anyone recently did the skynet room? the smb credentials are not working
Hi yesterday i could connect and my streak is down to 0 now, is it possible to do something about it ?
Hi there. I've been having issues with all openvpn certificates for a while now, except for the US-West one. I might have missed it, but is there any update on this matter?
I completed all of the steps on Attacktive Directory but it still does not show complete in progression
Why I can't dm tryhackme bot? :(

Thank you!
the eu-regular-1 server had a very unstable connection, not replying to pings or anything in random intervals. so i tried using eu-regular-2, but when i try to download my config file it gives a 404
Known issue of rooms forcing a page refresh every time you click on certain things?
Been happening for two-three days now
Yep, I mentioned it a few days ago, otehrs have here as well. Not sure what's being done about it though.
It was only happening for me if I was connected to openvpn or Attack Box.
Using Firefox, happens when clicking to see writeup, clicking to open the next step in a room, and the tabs to swap between the stats of the room/discussion/etc don't work, it just stays on the rooms leaderboard
Haven't tried it on chrome
Restarts occasionally for switching to the next step in a room, but happens every time when trying to see the writeups
For me it was happening if I tried to click on a task I'd previously completed. THe entire page would refresh and drop me back to either task 1, or whichever task I hadn';t completed.
I can confirm it's not an adblock causing it, tried it with adblock off
hello yes @autumn yoke, a fix is being worked on asap (:

Can I connect to two VPNs?
I have a Linux machine and would like to stay connected to my VPN provider and also connect to THM's VPN.
Is this doable?
yes should be
usually they will use 2 tun devices if both use openvpn
i.e one will be tun0 and the other tun1 most likely
might be some complications and problems if you do though but those things shadow can't see as they have never tried to run 2 vpns at the same time
Say thanks to shadow. 😉
Gave +1 Rep to @plush bay
heh just so you know shadow uses third person when speaking.... sorry if that confused you
Hello there,
Is there a way to unlink my previous discord account from the THM discord and link my current one?
You have to reach out to one of the mods for that.
Mods, not staff 🙂
@barren birch @desert stream @gaunt thorn @stray cove Sorry for the tag in advance
Oof, that's a bit much, but dunno 😄
It actually worked after a turned off the kill switch of the other VPN.
good to know and have fun
THM bot not responding with !verify for anyone else?
It's responding to me just fine
Hmm, I put in my token but it never responds like it use too with the update message.
You have mutual server messages enabled?
Correct.
And you also write !verify yourtoken ?
Well, then maybe try again a bit later. As it works fine for me too, tried it right now.
Been trying since Oct 20th when I got the pentest title. Haven't been able to update since then.
Has someone handled this for you?
Thought maybe it was because of the contest so i waited until the end when our rank is suppose to return but it still wont let me update.
It's likely due to the pentester title still being a thing. The title will be removed eventually.
Possible to remove it ourselves?
I don't believe so
Ah. Ok. Guess Ill just keep waiting... 😩
Anyone else find when they try to "Leave a room" they completed that the page refreshes before you can click on the dialog to approve it?
I noticed when switching from task to task the page refreshes .
I also experienced page refresh when clicking on header. Instead try click the arrow down on the right - some tasks open without refresh
I just hit F5 twice and it usually fixes it.
can someone help me understand what this error code means. every time i open msfconsole this error pops up
/opt/metasploit-framework/embedded/framework/lib/msf/core/exploit.rb:103: warning: The called method initialize' is defined here /opt/metasploit-framework/embedded/framework/lib/msf/core/exploit.rb:85: warning: Using the last argument as keyword parameters is deprecated; maybe ** should be added to the call /opt/metasploit-framework/embedded/framework/lib/msf/core/exploit.rb:103: warning: The called method initialize' is defined here
This most probably indicates that ruby version installed does not meet requirement of msf because it tries to initialise an object in different way that is expected (Using the last argument as keyword parameters is deprecated). These are warnings so normally could be ignored if msf is working correctly
No , not yet

Good day, I'm having trouble with my vpn from my kali vm and even the in browser machines. None of them are able to ping or do nmap scans for a target thm machine for some reason. I ran the thm-troubleshoot script on my kali vm and received this result: [-] Somehting went wrong -- please ask for further assistance in the TryHackme Discord...
Well if it's even not working in the attackbox (the browser machine) then there is no issue with the vpn. What room are you doing? As only if you can't ping a machine, doesn't mean there is something wrong.
Brainstorm
Well it even states that in the first task Please note that this machine does not respond to ping (ICMP) and may take a few minutes to boot up.
I tried nmap, but not with the -Pn switch, I will try that
DM me the token please :)
I think I'm in level 10 but discord shows 9
The dashboard is showing your next rank, not your current rank, so you maybe confused that?
just curious is there any way I can mass Ctrl-F on a page with a script?
hey, any idea why it's showing im not connected even though i am? (i can access 10.10.10.10)
Maybe try to refresh it, but either way, to check if you are connected, it's not too reliable to check it on the websites access page for example, as sometimes it's not showing that you are connected. Rather do it with trying to access 10.10.10.10 (like you already did) or with curl 10.10.10.10/whoami
sure, thanks!

Sometimes it bugs out if you're using a vm because technically your host isn't connected, but the vm is
I've been using VM from day 1 on THM and it always shows disconnected.
shows connected on HTB tho
interesting
i need to show them the error, how can i

I get the following error when starting a machine, anyone can help?
my concern is kindly make it ascending order instead of descending if it is accepting ascending order, and also check the spelling of username that i entered and it got correct answer - complete beginners path network services 2
If it's related to a room then it's #room-help
Well then maybe #general or #infosec-general is a more appropriate channel, as this channel is only for technical questions related to THM

hi
anybody facing problems connecting to machines
this is the machine ip 10.10.224.1
its running an apache server
but cant connect to it on the broswer
What room is this from?
Hello all! I'm currently working in the Attacktive Directory and using AttackBox and I can't install any applications needed for the room. When I try to install Bloodhound and Kerbrute I get the error message on AttackBox "Unable to locate package"
I seem to be able to access the internet via Firefox on AttackBox and have installed apps on AB before
Huh. Thats interesting. Cuz attackbox isn't supposes to have internet connection iirc
Only non subscribers have no internet access on the attackbox, subscribers do.
yeah, i subscribe
Ah ok. Makes sense
In that case can you very your account and send a screenshot of what it's saying? It's hard to troubleshoot with little to no info
!docs verify
Could we have more than just 6 friends please.
Tech support,
If we upload a Windows or linux VM that requires the interface (GUI) access. What service we need to enable in that VM to make it work? And how to proceed?
I'd try rdp
you should enable RDP access on your host machine bro. connect vpn and easy to use remote-access
i have aproblem that one game is not locating the istall game i try put the file where was the game and now is 116 gb when it was meant to be 50 gb is ghost breakpoint and i don't know what happen to it
Are we having some connection issues today?
I try to stay away from the attackbox but I am also having a hard time staying connected via SSH as well. Sometimes it seems like depending on the day one works better than the other.
hi guys... was the "pentester title" temporal?
You mean while being connected from your own machine?
Yes
Yeap, sometimes it work great and sometimes is a constant connection drop. I also see that the VPN drops connection every now and then has to reconnect.
But the last day or so I have also seen issues with the AttackBox. Like that error above on the browser, and yesterday it flag out refused to connect, it was a different error though if I recall correctly some kind of pink screen saying something along the lines of having issues connecting to remote desktop.
So if you are having connection issues while being connected to a target machine via ssh from your machine, you could try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that solves that issue. Just make sure to be either not connected to the target machine while you run that command or reconnect after you run it.
How do you get a title?
Mh, what title?
0%% titles. I see some have.
0%%? Where do you see that, I have no idea what you mean ^^
I'll give that a shot
Some have different...
Oh, that's just the normal lvl you have on THM, it means lvl 10.
Level? Confused. Besides points and ranks, there are also levels. What's my level?!
I don't know what your lvl is as you are still having the pentester role which basically replaces the lvl role meanwhile, so I can't see it in discord. But you can go on your public profile in THM and check your lvl
Does it get updated at Discord automatically? I see 0X8 in my public profile.
It should do that automatically yes, but in case it doesn't you can do it manually by sending the bot the verify message with your token again.
Did manually. Switched. Thanks.

I keep having boxes die on me as they tick over from one hour to the next
Anyone else having that?
I can reach boxes through ping commands, however, I'm not able to access any other port like port 80.
@ember aurora did you try port 5000 on this room?
You sure 80 is open?
Yes, the room was working fine, it just died all of sudden
Yes
Interesting. I got nothing then
it actually does not have port 80 open, use port 5000 as directed in task 1.
Lolll
hello, how can i get unverified on my old discord account and verify this one? ps i do not have access to my old account

True regenerating your config
using windows atm bc i'm just doing web fundementals
and don't want to waste my attackbox time
Set up your own vm
It'll do you good in the long run
In this video, I will walk you through the installation of Kali Linux in VirtualBox on a Windows 10 PC. The version we'll be installing is Kali Linux 2021.2 . Kali Linux is an excellent tool for cyber and network security and comes with a series of useful tools to test your network. By installing in a virtual environment, it allows you to switch...
I would use a VM
but I installed kali baremetal dualbooting
ill wipe it and then just install a vm
Oh. So use that. I do that
You shouldn't have any problems
Just connect to the vpn on kali and you're all good
I just don't like using kali.
i prefer to use Arch with the Black Arch or Parrot package installed
or yknow Ubuntu with alot of tools (pretty much the attackbox)
So do that???
ok sure
Dual boot whatever Linux system yiu like most
I send an email on friday to support@tryhackme.com and no reaction. Is that normal ?

Hello, I am working on 'Content Discovery' section for Jr Pentester module. However, the following link is not working...http://Machine-IP/robots.txt
Could someone help me out here?
Error message = ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
I did put the machine IP in the url
I had issues dual booting kali
hi i'm on throwback lab, but some machines are colapsed, i can't move forward? any hint, idea wathever?
Ask there. You're more likely to get help
ok, no problem
Windows Privesc in the JR pentester path doesn't open for me, just continuously loads. suggestions?
Does anyone else have an issue that the consecutive days do not update?
What you mean with "consecutive days" ?
Like when you log in a knock out some challenges. For some reason mine didn’t read like 2 days. Not a huge deal.. just wondering if maybe I’m doing something wrong.
Mh, maybe it's to early for me an I need my coffee first, but I still don't understand what you are talking about. Would be more then happy to help you, but I don't get it ^^
I’m. I believe they are called streaks for days logged in to the tryhackme site and doing challenges? It’s kinda late for me ironically enough so I might just suck with this explanation
Oh you are talking about the streaks. Well you don't get the streak for logging in, you get the streak for answering a question each day. So purely logging in will not increase you streak, you have to answer a question in a room.
Yea. I did. What are the timelines like to make a streak? I’m competing against someone else on what we can accomplish and streaks are a must for proving no skipped days.
Well basically you have to answer a question each day before 00:00 depending on your timezone. After 00:00 it's a new day and therefore if you answer a question after 00:00 you can increase your streak by another +1 if you answer another question.
Okay. Thanks. Must have messed it up
I mean depending on how high your streak was already, in case you messed up once, you can email the support asking them to reset your streak to what it was. But I would assume if the streak was only like 2 or 3 days it's not worth bothering them ^^
Ditto. Thanks for your help
i found out that if you clear you firefox history
cookies and cashe
the web site might load for you
but the images are not getting displayed lol
at least i can curl the domain name
btw
i can connect 10.10.10.10
so th prob is not about the vpn
the page images still wont load lol
which room? @tropic horizon
is mr robot room is slow ???
Hi. I think that configuration file for EU-VIP-2 openvpn isn't generate corectly. It has only 3kB instead of 8kB if compared to other confs which are working.
You might want to include what room and what task are you on
So you sure you have the correct creds to ssh into the machine?
If you want you can send me a DM with the target IP, the username and the password and I can try if I can log in, so just to determine if the issue is on your site
I mean you don't have to if you don't want, I'm just offering you some help to figure out what's wrong, as since yet you haven't send me the IP and creds 😄
Mh? Why can't you message me? There is no need for friend request to send DM's. Oh you have turned off to receive DMs from members of the same discord
How about losing your streak even though you haven't missed a day and have a few days left on streak freeze?
Event is not the same as a question answered. So that graph doesn't show that you couldn't have lost your streak. If you start a target machine that is deemed an event already.
So then what are the events?
I was in the middle of the MAL room when it went to zero. Emailed support but no answer yet.
It's including answers, yes. But starting a target machine is also deemed and event.
The machine was already running.
Not sure why my streak freeze doesn't work either if thats the case.
Ye that's fine, I'm just letting you know that an event doesn't have to be an answered question 😄 But you can anyways send them an email asking for a streak reset. #site-support message
I already did last night when it happened. Just waiting for a reply.
hello, what features do i get by creating a team and letting my friends join it?pls reply quickly

hi guys! anyone has installed nvidia drivers on kali linux. I have a notebook with 2 graphic cards, the integrated and the gtx 770M, and it becames impossible to get a full installation!
any who has accomplished?
You shouldn't need to install them for newer kali versions. What do you mean by you can't get a full install?
Hi Dear Grup.
I was invited by this person>
KaliLinuxisawesome#2867
I am asking you for your support. I am asking you for help on the forum.
I need help on the GitHub forum.
My Kali Linux does not have an up-to-date Repository.
I've covered everything on the GitHub forum.
From the depths of my heart, I am asking you for an answer.
Thank you very much in advance for your reply.
This is how I created a thread on the GitHub forum. Because it has a problem updating the linux kernel.
I am asking you for your support. Please help on the GitHub forum.
Due to the fact that I have an old version of the linux kernel, I cannot get the correct command to run the tool

So @naive dust firstly please be patient and not span the chat, secondly this channel is for tech support issues with the tryhackme website, not for general problems. Thirdly please try searching for yourself. I'm not sure why you think asking on the GitHub support site is a good idea either.
Could you please point to the path? Because I still do not know how to communicate with this Tablet via a USB / Wi-Fi keyboard?
Please Help Me.
This Tablet should connect to an external device - i.e. external USB / Wi-Fi keyboard. Can you please tell me how to connect from the keyboard to this Tablet?
If someone had an answer for you I'm sure they'd tell you. Please stop spaming the channels
So I searched it but I don't see a definite answer, the Skills Matrix, Is there a way to get this on your dashboard or since it is beta you basically have to get lucky????? Please reply directly to this or @ me.
I have been seeing a lot of this lately:
Who is the lucky hero who gets to help with this?

Complete Beginner
That's not a room, that's a path. If you new to THM you might want to start of with the tutorial room in order to understand how to use the plattform: https://tryhackme.com/room/tutorial
1. I am doing Lazy Admin room. In that I can't able to upload my reverse shell, it was running forever. But, when I try to upload some random files, it's get uploading.
2. Same with FTP, I can able to download files from ftp, but can't able to upload any files from my pc
Using VBOX with Backbox os
My vpn connection is good and I can able to access the website also able to connect ftp.
Network Configuration - NAT
Check if you only have 1 tun interface, so tun0 and not any extra like tun1, tun2 etc
Sure. Will do thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin
@stray cove sorry for the ping
It's fine
So have you solved it?
It was connected to only tun0
So the issue is still there, right?
Yes. I recently deleted and reinstalled backbox
I fear there would be some mis configurations in network while installing backbox
I assume openvpn is running directly inside your VM as you have a tun0 interface? And only inside your VM, so not on your host machine too?
Yes. It's running only in my VM
Try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 and then reconnect to the ftp or where ever you had the issues with uploading. In case that doesn't solve the issue put it back to 1500
Sure. Thanks
Hi, silly question, is there a way to see a list of the uncompleted rooms ? Meaning, I can see al my completed rooms, but I would like to know the one I did not finish so I can finish them. I had 4 open on my VM but as I left for holiday I do not remember on what I was working on 😄
You can check the "Hide Completed" box
or you can go to THM dashboard and click on 'show recent'
ok, but this will show all undone rooms, not only the one I started, right?
hmmm.. did not see that, I'll check it out
oh nice, I can see the latest 4 rooms, interesting... I might be able to pull more I guess 🙂
Ye, I thought you are speaking in general
Thanks a lot. It helped. It's default was at 1500. After changing it to 1200 it worked

Hey guys, has anyone been having any problem with the machines lately? sometimes i can access the IP addresses in my browsers and sometimes it doesn't and it's happening alot lately, i am connected to openvpn and i can ping the IP normally
have you run nmap scan?
yeah it works normally
different port maybe?
if i open the attackbox the ip works
huh
yesterday the port 80 was working but port 1234 wasn't opening so i thought maybe its from my router
but then i terminated the machine and started again and everything worked normally
then after i finished and started another room the problem came back
its weird and its only been happening lately
i did already before joining here, i'll see what happens and if i find a solution anyway i'll put it here for everyone too
So that's only gonna happen when on your own machine, right?
exactly
And you have that issue right now, so to reproduce it or is it working atm?
i do have it right now yes
Are you on a VM or an installed operating system?
im running kali from an external HDD
i've been doing it for a while and didn't have this issue at all
it's been happening for the past 2 weeks only
Okay so you boot from that HDD and therefore it is an installed os, right?
true
Check if you only have 1 tun interface, so tun0 and not any extra like tun1, tun2 etc
i do it's only tun0
Try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 to see if that solves the issue, in case it does not, put it back to 1500
Alright
it worked normally
do you think i put it back to 1500 and see if the issues comes back?
Sure try it, I mean it's just in the browser you said right? As otherwise you might have to reconnect to the target machine to test it.
yeah it's only in the browser everything else is working normally
Ye then give it a try
You mean it's working with 1500 or was not working anymore with that setting?
no it stopped working again with 1500
so switched back to 1200 and it worked again
Alright, ye then you good now I guess, you might have to use that command every time you restart your own machine or look for a way to make that a default setting
yeah i know it will default to 1500 again on restart but ey thank you for the solution man i appreciate it
Not a problem 🙂
when I try to use SCP on THM machine to send a file to my machine, I get this:
ssh: connect to host 10.17.22.3 port 22: Connection refused
lost connection
what could be causing this
type the command you're using
scp '/home/sarah/system AB/db/ww.mnf' root@10.17.22.3:/root/THM
did you try it with sudo?
I dont have sudo access on the THM machine
oh my bad you're sending it from THM machine to your machine i read wrong
do you have ssh enabled on your machine?
oh, how do I check that
on your machine type sudo service ssh status
I guess it's easier if you do it the other way around, run the scp command from your THM machine to download the file from the target machine
@crystal marlin is this an open support or only mods or only specific people can help here?
As I'm not a mod, I would say everyone can help 🙂
okay great haha
@lament trout you can try @crystal marlin solution too
why didnt I think of that, haha
lol it happens
Or whats even more easy, spin up a python webserver on the target machine, inside the folder where the file you want is located and do a wget in the THM machine to download it
its good to find out and learn both
@lament trout easiest and fastest method
but dont you need sudo for that?
No
no
no problem man, try to learn all different ways, your way and the ways @crystal marlin gave to you
Hey guys, is it possible to change my username on thm?

Hey, I am facing some troubles with a few machines, i cant get reverse shell in one of them even tho i am doing the right thing (confirmed by multiple writeups) and i cant brute force with hydra in another machine, it says 6000 hours while it shouldn't, i regenerated my vpn, downloaded again, changed network and computer but nothing :/
Hi, on the Management dashboard how do i add users is there a referral link I can sent them?
Are you on your own machine? And if yes, is it a VM?
Hello,
May I get some help in connecting to THM network using openvpn ?
I keep getting this error : "TLS Error: TLS handshake failed"
I tried :
-Regenerating OpenVPN config
-Switching servers, then regenerating OpenVPN config
-Checking system time.
You could check if you only have a single tun interface, so tun0 and not any extra like tun1, tun2 etc. Also I assume you are using your tun0 IP for the rev shell, right?
So it says something like timeout whitin that TLS handshake failed? Or no response or something similar to that?
I'm using the ip tryhackme vpn has given to me
What operating system are you using?
RN manjaro but i tried on kali as well 😦
i have gotten reverse shell to work, but on this machine I can't
Uhm, I have no idea about that os, so can you do something similar to ifconfig there to see your interfaces?

Well seems you have 2 tun interfaces, but it shouldn't be 2. So run sudo killall openvpn and connect to the vpn again. Then check again to make sure you only have tun0 and not any extra like tun1, tun2 etc. Also use the IP from that tun0 interface for the rev shell then.

but the other people from the same country/town are not having this problem
does it have something to do with:
"[-] tun0 interface does not exist"
Are you running the command with sudo?
yes
You can try that, but not sure if it will help
I have already done that
no change ..
Then check the other things that are listed, like wifi, firewall etc
Ok, thank you.
I would like some help about how to do that ?any recommendation from where to start ?
Maybe with reading that: https://openvpn.net/faq/tls-error-tls-key-negotiation-failed-to-occur-within-60-seconds-check-your-network-connectivity/
One of the most common problems in setting up OpenVPN is that the two OpenVPN daemons on either side of the connection are unable to establish a TCP or UDP
Much appreciated Fontaene
did the killall and still no shell 😦
Beside the killall, have you done all the other steps too?

Hey, I am just curious. Still new to TryHackMe, so bare with me. With all the rooms and certificates I earned, say, Jr. Penetration Tester I earned in October, and I have not been on TryHackMe because I've been busy at work. So, I connected today and was just reviewing my past certificates, yet, I see a lot of incomplete rooms that was actually completed. Is this normal or am I missing something?
It sounds to me that, you need to keep hacking each room everyday in order to maintain your streak, or whatever else that is.
Well there most likely some rooms got added to the path, but that doesn't mean every newly released room will be added to a path.
OK. I see so many rooms showing as not completed or it's "24%" completed. Not complaining just curious why. Thanks.
Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin
Well I mean as you did that path in October, I doubt there came any new rooms to that path anyways, so I'm not sure why it's showing only 24% for you. You sure you finished that path and not any other path, like the pre security path for example?
Yes, I completed all the rooms and downloaded the certificate. Jr. Penetration Tester path.
@crystal marlin Also, my Pentest+ path is showing as incomplete.
Well then you might want to send them an email regarding that.
My thoughts exactly, but wanted to ask first.
Hi, I keep getting "Uh-oh! You can only deploy a maximum of 3 machines at a time." when trying to start a machine on one of the tutorials. i don't have any other tutorials open as far as i'm aware. how do i solve this?
worked thank you!!!
I have completed all tasks for the room Attacktive Directory but it still has me at 89% completion. I'm not sure how to fix that because it's the last room I need for the CompTIA Pentest+ path.
Double-check each task is completed, if all ticked then contact support@tryhackme.com
https://help.tryhackme.com/contact-us
Get in touch with TryHackMe.
Hello frnds, i want to connect to the machine for CC-Steganography. What is its username and password? I couldnt find it in the room
last task?
you dont need the username and pass, just open the IP on the browser
yeah
thnx dude cries as a haker
Hey, I am having some trouble accessing a machine in my browser, I successfully connected using OpenVPN on a windows machine using my configuration file, I managed to connect to the machine of the tutorial for connecting to a machine (https://tryhackme.com/room/tutorial) but when I try to connect to a machine in this room (https://tryhackme.com/room/linuxfundamentalspart1) I simply get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
I have tried to terminate the machine and create a new one two times without success, I have made sure I connect to the VPN before I create a machine. Nothing seems to work.
How are you trying to access that linux fund target machine?
By pasting the IP address in my browser like I did in the tutorial room
Well the tutorial room target machine has a webserver running that allows you to connect to it via your browser to verify that you are connected to the VPN. The linux fund target machine don't, so you either have to ssh into that machine (not sure what the creds for that machine are). But usually that machine should spawn inside your browser in split view (only for linux fund 1, the rest of these room series you have to ssh into the target machine)
Has anyone managed to solve the issue of the EU-VIP vpn configs being somewhat FUBARed? I'm getting configs with no inline certs, regenerating does nothing.
vs eu-reg:
I think that issue is for quite a while with the VIP servers now and I assume can only be solved on THM side.
I'm assuming as much as well, but need to figure out who to poke...probably Skidy though 😦
ah well, guess I'll use reg-1
I remember that once horshark was mentioned in the pinned messages when it's about empty config files, but seems that changed and jabba told me to ping himself for such issues, so maybe he would also be the one to ping for that issue, but that's just what I noticed over the course I'm trying to help people in here, so don't take that as true 😄
I should probably email Jabba yeah
I think he has VPN issues on a blacklist atm though 😛
Hi, is it possible to cancel a subscription and receive a refund again?
Thanks for the help :)
Is there a way to stop the attack box from opening in split view when I open a new room. Or is there a way to stop attack box from auto resizing? When I open a room in the browser inside the attackbox, it goes crazy with resizing!
Not sure, but is it because you try to download attached task files and that's why you want to open a room site inside the attackbox?
yeah
I can download to my machine and scp it over but directly working in the attackbox is easier
Ok, well then you already have a good solution. Don't think, or at least don't know how you would be able to stop the rooms from spawning the attackbox.
Hey, is it possible to transfer premium from one account to another? our IT department was supposed to buy us vouchers, instead they made new accounts for us and subscribed on those
Turns out RDP or ssh X11 forwarding works!
i deleted my tryhackme account and created a new one ,how to verify with the new account's token
how did i lose my streak, even though i had kept it up
As it seems this discord account is not verified anyways, you just have to verify as usual, follow that guide:
!docs verify
gpg2john returns
Bad parameter: give(len=106935040, buf=0x55df464388c0, buf_size=90000), len can not be bigger than buf_size.
what to do?
Find the password to decrypt it on the target machine
I have a wordlist to bruteforce it against..
You mean a custom one from the words you found yourself? As if yes, that wordlist should be pretty small, therefore just trying them on your own was what I did as I got the same error
oh, okay. I'll do that, thanks!
Sorry, you already have a token on this account. returns this
Oh okay, then it maybe not showing it as a role because you deleted the THM account. You have to reach out to a mod to unlink that old tokken from your discord account
So maybe Hydra or Muiri to ping for that, as they kind of respond in a reasonable amount of time (as far as I know ^^)
So just a mod to ping, not staff.
ok
Hi there, are the KotH points also contributing to the monthly scores?
There is a separated KoTH Leaderboard iirc
I wasn't sure what's the best channel to ask this. Can anyone give me some context on why am I now being asked to provide my role, job title, employer, team, and even phone number? Not quite sure I feel comfortable providing all this info.
Hello,
i have a problem:
I´m at Linux Fundamentals Part 2
I started my kali linux. Then i start open vpn with:
sudo openvpn --config myconf.ovpn
i downloated the config new from thm.
this works, but i can´t connect to my machine with ssh as written in the learning path.
I get: ssh: connect to host IP port 22: connection timed out.
But the ping works.
At the vpn i get:
Authenticate/Decrypt packet error: bad packet ID (may be a replay): [ #6 ] -- the the man page for --no-replay and --replay-window for more info for silence this warning with --mute-replay-warnings
What am I doing wrong?
Not sure if it's necessary to add the --config flag when connecting to the vpn, but might be not an issue either. Can you open 10.10.10.10 in your browser?
Is your machine a VM or an installed operating system?
VM
If you enter ifconfig how man tun interfaces can you see? Only tun0 or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc?
From 10.50.190.1 icmp_seq=118 Destination Host Unreachable
I can't connect to the vpn server
I already refreshed
eth0
lo
tun0
And openvpn is not running on your host machine as well, right? Only inside the VM?
correct - only on kali vm
Try sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 and then try to connect to the target machine again. If that's not solving the issue put it back to 1500
thanks it works - but why?
Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin
Not sure, maybe your internet connection is not that good, but might be some other reason.
Yes my connection is not the best... Thank you so much...no I can go on 🙂
Site username?
for whatever reason vpn config files are not including a cert. Have tried every VIP server and using regenerate multiple times over the span of a couple weeks now. site username: ||speergeist||
I know the EU VIP vpns are having that issue. Have you tried some of the other ones?
wow yeah, the only VIP server that actually gives a cert is US-West
Yep
hello, I'm trying the "enumerating SMB" in the network services section and I am having an issue with opening the box that the second section gives.
Specifically, I cannot access it. I'm running an attackbox but it opens with a different IP address instead of the one that the challenge has. I've verified this by using the "hostname" cmd and its a different box. Am i supposed to be connected to the polosmb3 box?
hi all, i changed my email address to my school email address but still i am charged for normal sub and also i want to change the payment method. I am seeking assistance in the particular matter
So maybe i'm not that smart, but for some reason the AttackBox I use for the rooms is very different from the Box that is referenced in the room. Help?
The attackbox is the machine you are using to attack the rooms target machines, it's kind of an replacement of your own machine if you don't want/can to use your own machine to attack. So depending on what room you are doing, it might look different because you haven't started the rooms target machine.
Hello, i lost my streak yesterday 😦 because i was on the move through out. I had a steak of 40 before i lost. The streaks are important for me as its a key aspect of motivation. would it be possible to please get back my streaks? it would mean so much
Thanks mate, i just sent an email
Anyone know how to add a cert I have to my cert thingy on the server?
Hey there, How can I change my profiles country ?
@quasi meteor idk if this is the correct way but when I went to my profile > about you, it let me change my country near the phone number entry.
Thank you! it worked

Anyone know how to add a cert I have to my cert thingy on the server?
Hi sorry, i just finished my THm jr penetration teseter
And i did not get to put my full name in my account it, and now i got my username in my cert 😂
Is there any way i can change it ?
RIP
This might be a dumb question
Can i edit the name using inspect and use it legally ?
How would you be able to use edit on a picture?
But in case it is very important for you to have your name on the cert, you could first check/ask if it's fine to have multiple THM accounts, then make sure your full name is in your new accounts profile and just go through all the tasks again by copy pasting the answers from one account to the other until you finished the path.
But then i have to sub again tho :((
Well, like I said, if it's that important for you, I guess that's the only route 😄
but Yeah its cool, i learnt from this mistake.
There seems to be a problem with the RDP in the BOF Prep room: https://tryhackme.com/room/bufferoverflowprep
Neither me nor a friend of mine are able to get a stable connection to the server:
[15:36:22:104] [2570:2571] [INFO][com.freerdp.client.common] - Network disconnect!
Have you tried using remmina?
nope but I never had problems with xfreerdp so far
Ye, maybe it's not working with remmina either, but I already saw it working better with it for certain machines, so giving it a try might worth it
Last time I did that room xfreerdp worked fine but I will try it out 🙂
Can't connect with remmina at all 😅
Mh, I guess you made sure to only have a tun0 interface and not any extra like tun1,tun2 etc right?
yea and it seems like I am not the only one
Have you tried sudo ifconfig tun0 mtu 1200 already? In case it doesn't help put it back to 1500
That did the trick (or at least I was able to download all the binaries now), thank you! 😄
hello, I'm not asking for help. But the tryhackme verify bot is not working correctly like I had to verify again to update my tryhackme levels, pls fix this as soon as you can
It does update the level automatically, just might take some time
It will take < 24 hrs to update your levels
last time it took less than 10 minutes
like i just leveled up and then logged in to discord
and boom
it was there
Yes for me too. But it was slower now. I just levelled up from 0×8 to 0×9 day before yesterday and it tooks minimum 12-18 hrs for me
Third time’s the charm?
Anyone know how to add a cert I have to my cert thingy on the server?

Is smbmap not on attack box?
if you can't find it then no, you can still install it
nvm it's in opt

You're talking about actually certs like OSCP, Sec+, ect...?
Yep, just how to add the role

Hi guys! Anyone experiencing VPN problems or attackbox problems?
I've actually sent an email to help@sharp bison an hour ago explaing my problem, bet lets do it again here once again jajaja
Im currently having issues getting the openvpn working in my own external machine, tried to regenerate 20 or 30 times the configuration file from different servers, but still not working, tried also modifying the file as open vpn is suggesting, but nothing working, also attack box is getting screwed when launching it, already cleared cache and reopened it couple of times, nothing working ¿Could you help me?
Need you to elaborate 🙂
What isn't working?
Are there any errors?
Can you provide screenshots?
Which VPN servers are you using?
Are you deploying the AttackBox from https://tryhackme.com/my-machine ?
Have you tried another VPN server?
yeah, i can provide screenshots 2 from the terminal with the confg file
and 2 of me trying to modify the base file of vpn as openvpn was suggesting , not worked
Are you in a country that blocks OpenVPN like Egypt or Turkey?
spain 😄
as i already said regenerated the vpn file from the vip and regular servers 20 or 30 times
Does your internet service provider block our traffic or specific ports?
Or are you using work/ school WiFi?
Im in home, and 4 days ago vpn was working fine
i've been experiencing this issue 3 days already
sorry had to take out the screenshots, containing sensible data, let me fix it 1 seg
Looks like something is blocking your access to the VPN servers
there's something with the cipher and the openvpn version
you can see it on the second screenshot
@bronze vale can i open a DM with you, or make some ticket in order to talk through a private chat so i do not share personal info oppenly ?
There's nothing to discuss, something is blocking your connection.
If this occurs on all devices then it is your router or country.
Try on a mobile device, if the issue proceeds, you will need to contact your internet service provider.
i have that too but connection work fibally 😉 so it isnt a compression or anuthing like that 😉
So, attackbox running from https://tryhackme.com/my-machine , opvpn still not, mobile working fine
@faint iris thank you for letting me know
Gave +1 Rep to @faint iris
try to reboot your router
worked for me 1 time
and reboot your pc just by pure hasard
just got rid out of the antivirus, will do, i will update
reboot everything you can, sometimes the magic comes xD
it seems to be a joke but it isnt 😉
yeah, maybe there's something wrong with the NAT of the VM and my pc
yeah, if it still doesnt work after that from your VM, try to use kali docker, just to try
or ubuntu wsl since im supposed you are on windows
hello I need reset my machine http://10.10.30.119/ xss
hello, I'm on the enumerating SMB Network Services section and I'm having difficulty connecting to it.
Am I trying to use the smbclient to connect to it or some other way?
Was trying to keep my streak going but looks like I missed it somehow, what time frame/zone does THM run on? Guessing the streak doesnt count for local time zone?
@wispy hare you just gotta do a question within 24hrs of your last one to maintain the streak.
ahh ok, makes sense, thank you! I'll remember that going forward
Gave +1 Rep to @lament trout
Does anyone here know how to resolve the TLS handshake failed issue while connecting to the tryhackme using openvpn ?
Does it say something like no response within 60 sec or similar to that?
Yeah
But everytime it works fine and from day before yesterday it's showing me this error
I mean you can try to get a new vpn config from the access page on THM, or change the vpn server, but I doubt that will help, but give it a try. Other then that I guess you have to look if the issue is within one of the reasons in the message where I provided the link to you.
I have tried all the vpn servers and had also tried regenerating the ovpn files but it has not resolved the issue
That's what I figured. So try to look for one of the other reasons provided to you.
Hi there,
I have a big problem, I lost my streak for no reason! I had also enabled a 1 day freeze ticket but I was in time with or without the ticket.... I had a 130 day streak or more.
Please is there something I can do?
Email support@tryhackme.com with this message body
Hey Support!
I am looking for a streak reset.
My streak was <yourstreak> before it ended (I think).
I am looking forward to reading your response!

Random question, how do you update your payment info, e.g. credit card expiration date, on THM website?
I've just found a method by Googling but I think I never seen an admin/mod doing a post about it lmao
bc I never seen that link on THM website aswell soooo
i have more than 7 day streak and still cant access network, whats the problem?
ok, thanks society. I did a quick search and found some THM forum posts about cancelling and re-subscribing. I guess I'll give that a shot.
Why, what's not working?
can i dm u?
Would prefer to write here
in thm access page near "Machines" there is networks
and i cant use it
or is it normal
You have to join the networks room itself first in order for that to work.
and how i can do that?
Like with any other room, go on the room page of whatever network you wanna do and press "Join room". Which network you want to do?
For example wreath network would be that link: https://tryhackme.com/room/wreath
Avengers blog
That's just a usual room, so that should have nothing to do with networks
Hey everyone. Just had a quick question. I’m fairly new here and to THM I’m on Linux fundamentals Part 2. Task 2. When I hit “start machine” the machine starts right up and there’s no issues. Now in the task it says to open up the attack box as well. When trying to open the attack box it loads up all the way. At the very end after trying to connect it says “Failed to connect to server” I opened the attack box in my browser and am currently rocking the split view. If anyone has any tips or ideas on how to help I’d be more than willing to hear any input. Unfortunately I can’t post screenshots because the plus button on here is blurred out. I’ll do my best to be descriptive
You have to verify your THM account in discord in order to be able to send screenshots
!docs verify
Okay. @crystal marlin here’s what it looks like.
@naive dust I tried the ovpn setup and no dice. I was connected to the US VIP and still couldn’t get the machine to work. Went through the website and got the hidden code to confirm I was connected and I’m still getting the same errors.
