Now, you have an issue connect to machines you start up?
I progressed further down the beginner path and at one point the author said he's assuming I'm using Linux
So, I downloaded a VM-Ware Image of Kali Linux and follwed the instructions installing OpenVPN
Ok.
Have you started any machines?
I started the machine from room Linux fundamentals 3
I can ssh into it, on Kali Linux, but I cannot browse the website in Firefox
10.10.54.115
When you access ssh, you're essentially logging in to that machine on the command line.
so, you're viewing the contents of that machine.
yes. but I also need to browse "the regular Internet" ?
For which task?
Ok, so let me rephrase the question:
Once I'm connected to OpenVPN on Kali Linux VM, I can connect to tryhackme-boxes, but I cannot browse the regular internet, such as google.com
is that suppposed to be like that? Because on Windows that was not the case
Right, I get you, I don't know why that would be.
As the OpenVPN just creates a tunnel to their machines.
It doesn't have any effect on your browser.
Are you using virtual box?
No, VM Ware Workstation
What is your network setting?
I can provide you the information you need for that, but you would need to tell me where to look it up
I'm connected using ethernet cable and the VM Machine is using that connection
Hm, to tell the truth, if you can connect to the machines, I think you should be ok...
NAT
you should be connected to the internet then.
Ok, I tried to send a screenshot but I cannot
Ok, I did
Now you can send images.
anyway I found it
$ nmcli connection # Note the name of the VPN connection here
$ nmcli connection edit (connection_name)
set ipv4.never-default true
set ipv6.never-default true
save
quit
Hello, is anyone able to help me with group licensing issues?
hey , what are the differences between the VMs supplied by THM?
guys whats a .clr file
Can any admin or mod with the ability unlink whatever discord my discord token is applied to and apply it to this one? I cannot access whatever account has it. I have gone through an extensive amount of trouble trying to recover this discord because it had my phone number attached. I do not have any clue where that discord profile that the token is currently applied to, but I can verify to you my credit card info, profile info, etc.
Which VMs you talking about specifically?
So you mean the kali machine and the attackbox?
Well your question is kind of vague, but the difference between them is kali machine = kali linux and the attackbox = ubuntu but with all the necessary tools installed. Also the attackbox is getting maintained/updated, the kali machine not anymore.
And yes, you could also use your own VM on your local machine and use that
thank you ๐
and well if i already asked, can i some how transfer files form the attackbox to my pc? like bash scripts
You could yes, since you are sub your attackbox has internet connection, so for example upload the files to some kind of file host or use scp to copy the files to your local machine, the credentials you need can be found at the bottom of the attackbox by pressing the info button.
sorry for the many questions , i am new to THM
It's fine, not an issue
cool thx ๐

NVM I am all set now
thats what I did
In fact, there are premade kali images that you can just "play" inside vm ware or oracle vm virtual box
Home of Kali Linux, an Advanced Penetration Testing Linux distribution used for Penetration Testing, Ethical Hacking and network security assessments.
you mean OVA?
if you mean open virtual appliance then I guess... yes
i mean the premade kali for vbox
Hello everyone. I have connected to THM in kali through openvpn but still it does not show in THM console that I'm connected
I can access 10.10.10.10 from my kali box
Hello, someone changed my email, and I have the first verification email since January 2021, i sent an email to tryhackme official email but no ansewer since 2 days
If it's not showing that you are connected on the access page or on the top of the website just ignore it, as long as you can access 10.10.10.10 you are successfully connected.
Support can take a few days to reply, small team and countless e-mails to go through, if you don't get a reply after day 7, it might be best to e-mail again.
Someone told me to ask for help in discord and I'll get an instant response
Only discord problems are dealt with in Discord.
Any THM account queries will be dealt with in the support, via e-mail.
Anyone know of any good comprehensive guides for PLCs? There's a job that seems interested in me, but I have pretty much no knowledge about it, and it would certainly help with the job position! If not, I guess I'll just look up relevant job description stuff on youtube haha.
You'll want to ask a senior mod or muiri about that. I can't do the verification myself
Doesn't sound like the right channel for that here
I'm not sure if this is the right channel for this. But does anyone know how to reset username and password on Kali Linux?
As in on your VM?
You can reset a password with passwd
As for username...i wouldn't recommend mucking about with those and would just create a new user
Then deleting the old one
You mean resetting a password with a password? Did I get that correctly? what would be the steps for a new user and deleting the old one? I tried a few steps on google and nothing worked so far
Passwd the program
passwd
That one
For users it seems to depend on distro, I think kali uses useradd, usermod, and userdel or something to that effect
Yeh, I think adduser is also a thing might be deprecated tho
usermod can modify a username but it won't automatically follow through to everything else
Home dir, etc
I've...had issues in a room with that before
๐
I mean I can't login to get to the terminal though so I'm guessing it's going to have to been done from booting up
Do you have the root password or an ssh key based login?
umm I don't think so. I never used the root password. Only used the regular login
gbh v
Ouch
This is why password managers are nice
Did you install the kali from scratch or use a provided image?
provided image
installing kali on virtual is the only way it works for me
Try root:toor
or kali:kali
Yeh, I know, I never changed them 
:p
To this day,
Friend logged in one time 
noted
Yeh, but there's nothing on the vm other than some throwaway files
It's mainly for convenience in case my dual boot acts up or I need windows on the side
also noted
Oh what other fresh hell are you cooking up ๐
No hell, only fun

Maybe more java
thanks for the help guys it worked ๐ค๐ผ
Kali user?
yea
That one should have sudo
NOO HYDRA DONT YOU EVEN SAY THAT
YOU + JAVA MAKES PEOPLE CRY
Nah just you
I cannot use my token to verify my account and access voicechat. It says it is being used by someone else, even though a mod removed it from my old discord yesterday. Can a mod or anyone with authority please make it available for assignment to this discord?

Hi Support. Just a quick question my subscrition lapsed as i missed to notification and had changed card since last bill. Went in and payed the subscription but when i log in its still asking me to go premium any ideas?
Email support ๐
perfect thanks
we can take i there
can you enter vulnerable machine via openvpn
You can get onto the THM network via the openVPN connection, and from there you can access the machines in a room once you spin them up, but it doesn't put you directly onto a machine
do i need to ssh or something?
that depends on the machine you're trying to access, possibly
can you help me with that
you're better off looking at a writeup for the room
So I was doing the Linux PrivEsc room, task 11, which required me to mount a folder in my tmp directory to a share on the target machine. All was good until the target machine shut down before I unmounted the drive. Now my entire tmp directory will not load at all. I think it is still trying to connect to the remote machine. I tried unmounting afterwards but that didn't do anything.
Anybody know anything I can do?
Oh that worked, that's embarrassing ๐
Thanks!
Not embarassing at all, i also had quite the trouble first time it happened to me.
Hey if anyone's free to help that'd be most appreciated, I'm trying to connect to a THM machine using my PC. I've downloaded OpenVPN on my VM, downloaded the config file from the website and tried this command sudo openvpn /path/to/file.ovpn in my terminal. My terminal responds with I'm trying to parse "/lethalz.ovpn" as an --option parameter but I don't see a leading '--' What am i doing wrong? The OS is Linux Mint Cinnamon if needed.
Could you show a screenshot pls ?
^
You are putting / infront of your .ovpn file, so leave that away (assuming that file is in Desktop)
Ohh wow thanks appreciate the help

Hi
I think there may be some issue with the room "Intrusion Detection"?
I'm trying to be as noisy as possible (ssh as root several times, sudo with failed passwords, read forbidden files like /etc/shadow, etc. and I'm not getting any alert for Wazuh)
Rebooted the server and I still can't see any alert for the NIDS
Wazuh-agentd is running
It is the same for me. But i managed to get a couple of alerts with nmap, other than that, nothing.
What switches you used with nmap?
I got zero alerts
I used -A, -O, vulner scripts, ssh bruteforcing
I used -T4 --script=vuln and --script-args http.useragent
Yup, same, but 0 alerts from Wazuh
I just checked, and the Wazuh agent is connected to the server
I shouldn't be troubleshooting this lol
That's not what I'm supposed to be doing in this server lol
Just so you know, there is a dedicated channel for that room, maybe someone in there will be able to help you ๐ #963861336704565248
Thank you! Didn't know that

Hello Everyone, my attack box is low on storageโฆAny clue as to how I can get a clean installed VM?
Backstory to my storage issue, im in the openvas room- installed docker but install of openvas fails and outputs a disk space error. Iโve ran the syntax df -h it does show disk space at 100%
Hi all am I even connected to the vm ? it didnt prompt me for the password ......
I do see a password prompt ?
Oh I guess that's just for sudo
Hi there I think I forgotten the steps what to do next will note it down in my Kali
So you good or still need help ?
Yes I still need help I can't do a SSH to my IP address ๐
Can you run curl 10.10.10.10/whoami and let me know what the reply you get is ?
Best to send a screenshot
But to let you know, I guess you are doing the room: https://tryhackme.com/room/furthernmap
So you are not supposed to ssh into that target machine.
This target machine is only there to be scanned by your attacking machine with nmap
alright give me a second
Your VPN connection seems all fine, so like I said above, you are not supposed to ssh into the target machine in that room
oh really ? I remember I did it to enter the attackbox from openvpn
Well you for sure have not ssh'd into the target machine in that room, maybe you have done it in another room
And the attackbox is different then the target machines
So ye, you can ssh into the attackbox, but not into the target machine of that room
yes I done it in other room and remember entering the password

Hey, this channel is generally more for technical issues rather than room related issues. I'd suggest asking in #room-help generally, but in this case #743859653343182930 might be able to help you better ๐
the immediate question might be have you tried elevating to system?

So what exactly you mean by not working? What's the error or reply you got?

Okay, but you haven't answered the question? What's the error or reply you get?

Can I have the target machine IP and try myself ?
10.10.194.130
Could you show me a screenshot of the "Active machine information" box that's on the room page? As I think that IP is from your attackbox
Hello, i'm trying to upload a vagrant VM to a room. How can i convert it to a .ova or .vmdk ?
@nocturne blade If you don't see that box, you haven't started the target machine yet. You can start it in task 1 by pressing the green "Start machine" button
Hello, Iยดd like to report a problem with this room: https://tryhackme.com/room/retro . The performance of the IIS on this box makes it impossible to do it. Its so slow, that 90% of the gobuster requests time out even if you throttle it with delays up to 5 seconds.
Once you found your way into the "environment" its impossible to navigate in it since everytime you click a link within the panel the site runs into a timeout.
Do you still have the target machine running ?
Yep, after 30 minutes of trying and trying I was now able to load my desired site in the panel but its really really slow ๐
Well maybe it has something to do with your connection rather then the target machine, can I have the IP and access it on my own ?
Everything else loading fine on my main machine and inside my kali box I have a really good internet connection aswell so I dont think that should be the problem. I pass you the box IP as PM
You never know. Yes pls
It got a bit faster in the last 20 minutes now but gobuster is still really slow / timing out. Never had this problem before, yet.
@covert bronze i think i have the same problem i cant even ping my box but it shows me the box is up and running my vpn is fine and network connection is also fine
Running gobuster right now, found the directory after like 30 secs and not having any timeout so far
Is your attacking machine a VM?
Yes
And openvpn is running directly inside that VM?
Yap
If you check ip a s do you only see a tun0 interface or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc. ?
lo, eth0, tun0
Could you run sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200 and then try again if it changes anything regarding the timeouts?
In case it does not, just put it back to 1500
Is tun0 state showing as unknown
Only if you can't ping a machine, doesn't already mean there has to be something wrong, some machine simply don't reply to ICMP pings, especially windows machines
Ya gobuster is much much faster now
Do you mind explain please what this command did ? And thank you already ๐
@crystal marlin its not on a single machine its on nearly three machines and no one has load a webpage also
It's just reducing the max packet size.
Maybe you are on wifi or you have another VPN running on your host machine, so not sure what the cause of the issue is exactly, but that settings solves issues with the VPN frequently
So what room are you on right now where that happens?
Flatline plotted
This one? https://tryhackme.com/room/flatline
Okay so ping is not working and the webpage is not loading ?
@crystal marlin yes
Thats actually the case yes. My main machine is running through a VPN aswell ๐
So from what I can see, there is no webserver running on that machine as well as this machine does not reply to ICMP pings
Have you been able to scan the target machine?
@crystal marlin no the scan are giving nme nothing even if i use -Pn
could anyone help me, im new in this world and when ever im trying to do the ping to the machine it does not work, I'm in the meow tier 0 do anyone knows ehy?
Well, I think that's in general not a good practice to run a VPN over another VPN, so you might want to consider turning of the VPN on your host machine, as most likely you wouldn't even need the reduces MTU then ๐
Could you show me a screenshot of the command you used and the reply you got from nmap ?
Thank you for the heads up ๐ have a nice day
Gave +1 Rep to @crystal marlin
@crystal marlin its just cursor blinking
So that means it's still running ?
Sry, what is the room name you said ?
Please share the room link, can't find anything close to that
Im connected to the machine but whenever I try to do a ping I dont get any response
But in general, to ping a machine is not reliable to verify if it's up your if you can reach it, some machines simply don't reply to ICMP pings
its running for like 20 min i havent seen a machine do it for like 20 min and its just not -p- scan
You are aware we are not hack the box here, right ๐ ?
but when im trying to do nmap I dont get any response either
You are in the TryHackMe discord ๐
how sorry xD
Can I have the target machine IP and try myself?

Hi, I have a big issue
I got hacked on a minecraft account, and i am searching how to find the hacker's ip adress to ban it from my server, the only info i have from him is his username
Okay, was working just fine. If you check ip a s do you only see a tun0 interface or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc ?
its tun0 only
Try sudo nmap -sS -vv -p- -T4 --min-rate 10000 -Pn 10.10.123.146 and let me know if that's working
This channel is for directly tryhackme related tech support like site and VPN issues.
If they connected to your server, check your logs. IP bans are likely to be bypassed, use a user whitelist.

This channel, and indeed the whole discord, is community driven. You're not entitled to any support here at all, it's done out of community spirit.
Paying THM doesn't get you more or less support in the discord because it's not linked to being a paying member or not. No one is paid to provide help here.
The only support anyone gets paid for is via email

Is your attacking machine a VM ?
yes
Is openvpn running directly inside that VM or on your host machine ?
inside the VM
Do you have any personal vpn running on your host machine ?
Then check ip a s if you only see a tun0 interface or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc.
just tun0
Then run sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200 on your attacking machine, then try again to open the webpage
Yes! that did it!! Thanks a million!! Could you kindly explain what was wrong, so I can fix it if something similar happens again?
I can not tell you what exactly is wrong, maybe you are on wifi, or your internet connection isn't too good.
Something along those lines

hey guys I am new here, could someone help me? I am connected to openVPN and everything but when I try to start the activity machine all that ever comes up is the regular machine and not the activity one
I have downloaded a new openvpn profile and tried connecting other ways im at a complete halt
By activity machine, do you mean the attack box or the room VM?
the room
You're pressing the big green button for that not the blue one?
Yeh, try refreshing and starting again
openvpn should be turned on yeah?
Yeh, if you want to interact with the machine
okay I refreshed, ill wait 5 mins like it says and see
You should see an ip in the top of the room
Wait,
Are you expecting a split view, graphical machine to pop up like the attackbox?
yes
Because most rooms don't have that on the room VM
What room is it that you're doing?
Tech_Supp0rt: 1
Yeh, that doesn't have a graphical VM, just attack the ip and try to get in the machine remotely
so copy the machine IP into windows remote desktop? I tried that and it cant connect
sorry if im misunderstanding
The "tech_support" room is a challenge room, I think you're just starting so better to do some rooms first to get the hang of it

I think my vpn decided it wanted to write.
that's pretty common for me, sadly, it means your internet connection died or reconnected
Yeah, my internet is having issues this weekend, I have to wait until Tuesday before an engineer can come back out.
engineers for the win 
The last one came out and told me it was because there is too many routers on the channel and tried changing it, his exact words were "Whenever I change this, I don't have to come back". So he was more than sure this was it didn't listen to me when I told him I already tried changing channels.
yeh but I'll still take the engineer's side 
also because you're likely dumb
Not too sure of that are you?

my vpn connection is creating multiple tun interface everytime i restart it
can someone suggest a solution for this
my location has been updated for my profile. can that affect my openvpn settings?
uuum don't recall the command but you should probably remove all the old tun devices.... and to kill the vpn use ctrl + c and then wait for a short while so it can exit gracefully
i have deleted the interfaces and killed the vpn as well but the issue still persist
my internet connection is perfect so no issue regarding it
What you mean with "doesn't boot up" ?
I can not connect to the VM via RDP.When it does it crashes

Hi in https://tryhackme.com/room/winprivesc Part Dll hijacking. I can run hijack.dll. Because dllscv not run in the system and I can not install process monitor to find service load C:\temp. What can I do?

Hello guys! I had a strike of 65, going for 90 to get the badge and then continue for the next one. I traveled from Italy to USA. Here the current time is 23.51 just right now. I lost all of my streaks. I really hope to get them back because honestly I'm on time for my daily meeting with the platform! Please let me know that is possible!
In case is needed I can provide more details on dm etc, actually proving that I'm really in US and so that I'm on time
I really don't want to loose 65 streaks just like that 
You can send an email to support and ask them nicely to fix your streak
Is there a VPN issue? Can't seem to connect to THMs VPN. I already regenerated the .ovpn file. I already tried with HTBs VPN and it works so its not on my end probably.
Changing the VPN servers (IN to AU) worked, but having extra delay is kinda meh.
Is there a way I can make my certificates show my real name instead of my nickname on THM?
You can go to https://tryhackme.com/profile and change your full name there
But if a certificate is already generated , then you can't change the name on it

Privilege escalation: Path
Text days "You can launch the target machine and access it directly from your browser"
Browser window doesn't start.
I've managed to SSH in now but even that wasn't working
I can ssh in and it works.
All the other machines start in the browser
Just started NFS machine and that's back in the browser
Maybe this is more of a bug than tech support.
It should start within the browser if it's mentioned, just tried it and it doesn't.
I reported it, so they might fix that soon.
Regarding ssh, sometimes you need to be patient until the target machine is fully booted
I'm still logged in the ssh, I forgot about it after I tried it btw.
Yeah I guessed it hadn't started up fully. Got it done in the end.
Thought it was weird that all the others had opened in The browser

Hey all, I'm doing Windows Fundamentals 1 within the Pre Security pathway but can't seem to remote connect to my machine. I get the following error:
Connection Error: The remote desktop server has closed the connection because it conflicts with another connection. Please try again later.
do you have a button next to the start attackbox button that says show split view???
because that error makes it sound like there is already a open RDP session going
I do but the only machine that's running is the windows one
hmmmmm????
WINFUN1.1, the required machine for the room
When I dismiss the error sometimes I'll get this error: Your Remote Desktop Services Session has ended.
Another user connected to the remote computer, so your connection was lost. Try connecting again, or contact your network administrator or technical support group.
could you send a screenshot??? you will need to verify on discord for that which you can do following the instructions in this link:
!docs verify
what are you using to try and connect to the rdp session???
Isn't the machine already connected? Like the hackboxes?
the attackbox is yes
wait a minute??? are you trying to connect to the windows machine you have in split screen to the connection info you got in the task????
because if you are you are trying to connect to the same machine that is your target from the target itself
hence it is not going to work
I'm not sure? In past exercises (Linux) we used the hackbox to connect to the ip provided
I was figuring it'd be the same; we make our box, Windows in this case, connect to the IP and we're good to go
Is there a program I could use on the hackbox or Kali to remote connect then?
If you're using Remote Desktop Connection I assume you're using windows, so you'd need the openvpn GUI for that
in this case the attacking vm is the windows machine at the same time as it is the target... a lot of the beginner windows machines are in that way
unless they are showing you some remote exploits like in the blue room
The windows machine hosted off the website, so wouldn't need the openVPN gui, right?
Yes, otherwise you won't be able to connect to it.
ah, so for this exercise it's simply not required to log in?
The VPN is a "tunnel" to the THM machines you spin them up.
yeah but they are talking about the machine in split view that is a windows machine because it is a windows fundamentals room which starts its own windows vm instance that is used as both target and attack vm in this instance
Isn't the subscription the work around for this? It's either get 1hr/d for free (website provides VPN + box) or setup the VPN myself
i.e no need for open vpn as all of the stuff is in their browser already
^
and yes subscribing gives you unlimited attackbox access so that you can start and stop it and use it however much you want during the day
of course there are some few exceptions but listing them here might not be useful
You can't log in RDP & the split screen at once.
It's one or the other.
exactly scrubz
so they are trying to use the split screen view to login into the rdp session
or they were
Or they are booting the machine up, and logging in to RDP
When the machine starts properly it logs in, kicking them off the RDP
shadow quite cleary understood that they were doing it from the browser tab after asking a few times
I wasn't getting at you not knowing it.
You need to have the VPN on whatever you're accessing from, wither it's Windows, VM or iOs.
anyways seems like nate figured it out and can keep going
and yeah as another option to connect to the target virtual machines you can use the openvpn config and have your own attack vm in virtualbox
most would recommend a kali linux vm for that
Depends what you're doing.
The windows machines I prefer to use the host windows RDP.
@naive dust Hi Nate
Hey Everyone, I was trying to access a website on my AttackBox, but I got an error 405 saying that this method is not allowed. Is there some way I can remove that issue?
Are you a free user? If so, you do not have an internet connection on your attackbox.
That means you are using the wrong IP address most likely. You cannot just enter the IP of your attackbox in the browser.

How do I install ciphey :3
Do you have pip?
helo guys, how do i know if may acc is ban in this server
yes, I already run python3 -m pip install ciphey and clone the github ciphey
You would have a message.
I didn't have to clone anything.
Install pip, then install ciphey and everything installed.
That did the trick
Thanks!
I think my main discord acc is banned in this server and Idk why
@eager fulcrum can help you.
Or Juun.
What's the user name for the original account?
NINJA.#5741
(Sorry, I pinged before I seen Juun was typing)
add --upgrade
This account was banned for spamming nitro scam links. If you have resecured your account 2FA and changed the password, you may email bans@tryhackme.com to appeal
thx, it worked
Just fwiw, evading a server ban is a break of Discord ToS and can get your account closed
oh thankyou, yep I think months ago my acc just spam some pishing links which I did not do.
yeh bro, I think the last time my acc just infected of discord bot spam smthing like it spam on all servers I am in idk how did that happen
.
if my acc got banned here? is my tryhackme acc banned too? @eager fulcrum
No
It depends.
I've found I've been waiting longer than 3 min(s) then it won't do it.
I thought ciphey is better than cyberchef
In many ways it is.
Anyone got Vpn issue? I can browse but I'm not able to ping from my terminal
Ping what?
Not all machines reply to ICMP pings
Not boxes. When I tried to run VPN I'm not getting connection so I tried a 8.8.8.8 ping. No response.
I can browse with no issues
In browser
We are talking about the TryHackMe VPN, right ?
Yessir
So what has 8.8.8.8 to do with the VPN? I'm not fully understanding
I'm just trying to check if I'm getting network via terminal. Cuz when I ran the script for checking Vpn issues (script from thm troubleshooting page) it said no internet connection
Okay? Well I'm still not sure if I fully grasp why you ping an IP that has nothing to do with the thm vpn and therefore won't tell you anything about if you are being connected to the thm network.
But, how are you connecting to the thm vpn ?
Via the command line or via the GUI ?
Command line
If you do curl 10.10.10.10/whoami what's the reply you get ?
hello anyone using virtual machine on mac m1?
Nothing basically
Vpn is stuck here for me
Check out this article: https://blogs.vmware.com/teamfusion/2021/09/fusion-for-m1-public-tech-preview-now-available.html ๐
https://github.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting
Give that a bash if you're still stuck ๐
Actually tried this a while back. It said no internet access
But I have internet
!vpnscript
You have to wait longer then check the openvpn output again, as there is no error nor success message yet.
But I highly assume it will lead to a "no response" error. So check these things: #site-support message
I found the issue. It's something wrong with VPN server.
Both EU VIP wasn't working but regular worked for me
Is vip using different port from regular?
I don't think so
Hi, not really sure if this is the correct place, but I'm a student and interested in buying premium. The website says that it is 6 dollar a month and that I get 2 months free. When I proceed, it then gives me a student yearly summarize and their it talks about 72 dollar a year. 6*12=72, so my question then is, do I pay for a full year and then get 2 months on top of that? Or is their some kind of mistake? Sorry, I'm just a bit confused since the summarize doesn't talk about the 2 free months at all.
Ohh in that way, I was thinking that it meant a extra 2 months free on top of it
Understood, thanks ๐

Hey everyone, I have a little problem using OpenVPN. Here's the situation, I have my home machine running Windows 10 and I use Kali Linux on Virtual Box. I can connect the VM to the TryHackme network but the problem is I have an IP like this : 10.9.87.65 whereas all the machines in my rooms have IP's on a different network i.e 10.10.76.4. I tried different networks such as Europe 1, Europe 2 even Europe VIP but nothing seems to match the THM machines IP ranges... Did I miss something ?
That's supposed to happen. The vulnerable machines are on 10.10 but VPNs are on 10.9, etc. You connect to the vulnerable machines via the VPN servers (:
Okay thx. And what am I supposed to do with network mapping ?
None. OpenVPN handles the whole process for you ๐
Okay it may seems dumb but I can't ping any of the machines so I can't nmap
can you visit http://10.10.10.10/ from your Kali Linux?
No it keeps loading
Okay, first make sure you're not running the VPN twice (I.e. have done sudo openvpn yourvpn.vpn in two terminals (you should only one tun interface (check using ip addr)
Then sudo ip link set dev tun0 mtu 1200
That command configures how packets are sent OpenVPN and usually fixes issues like that
Okay I did that and checked I'm only running OpenVPN once
I'll try to connect to 10.10.10.10 again
Are you seeing Initialize sequence completed?
Doesn't work but if it helps you to understand my situation I have 7 connections to virtual networks : from tun0 to tun6. Seems to me it's supposed to happen right ?
Yes I do
It's not supposed to happen sorry
Dont mind but try using curl http://10.10.10.10/whoami from your terminal
You will see your IP if your VPN works correctly
Nothing happens
Nooo you should only have one (tun0). No idea what your environment is doing
That happened to me one night.
I ran the THM script from Github to fix this
It's processing
^ that's what I did.
What did you do exactly ?
Just ran the script, rebooted the VM and it worked.
Someone had an error earlier too, they weren't closing the script, they were shutting the VM's down, but for some reason the sudo opevpn remained on.
Okay the script fixed the problem for now
Interesting
I've never seen that before
I guess just make sure you Ctrl + C the terminal running the vpn before you shutdown, Le Coyote(:
But I still don't understand how I'm supposed to ping the THM machines from the rooms without being on the same IP range
Yes I think I did'nt do that and it caused the issue
Yes I thought the were separate networks
Simple way to look at it is lock and key.
You can't get in the door (THM machine) without the key (vpn script)
Okay for example RN my tun0 IP is 10.8.74.169 and the machine I'm supposed to scan is 10.10.109.10
It RN it works I'm pinging it !
Yes.
The problem went from so many tun interfaces I think thank you guys for your help
I'm experiencing a weird error with my VB VM. If I try to open my VM I get this error. Could not open the medium 'D:\VirtualBox\KALI LINUX\Snapshots/{979202ed-85f5-4d23-ad99-49c18cabf554}.vdi'.

Can anyone tell me why the business accounts are so much more expensive (ยฑ4 times) than the private accounts? And is that the right channel to ask about it? ๐
There is extra value in the business plans, although can be questionable if its worth the 4x price tag but thats upto a business ๐
So in addition to the standard HTB, a business would get the below
Create custom learning/career paths
Dedicated customer success manager
Onboarding and ongoing support
Management dashboard reports and analytics
Custom network environments
Create your own custom labs
Transferable Licenses
Same goes for education, there is extra value add ๐
I'm sure the business and educational plans would only be beneficial if you have employees you wish to do it with, easier to manager, and educational if you're a teacher and you wish your students to this, but that link Ben posted will explain better than I can.
yeh one of the key things is transferrable access
I had the same questions when signing up for 1Password business, but as a business it was well worth it with the "value add" compared to personal accounts

Pleb questions incomingโฆ I am looking to move from AttackBox to OpenVPN and have successfully connected OpenVPN on my Mac (THM tutorial). I have a Virtual Box and Kali previously configured on my comp as wellโฆ and know that I am supposed to switch to <Use Kali Linux>; am I missing a step?

basicly start the kali vm... go to the tryhackme site on the kali vm.... download the ovpn file from the access page.... install openvpn on the kali box if it is not already installed... run sudo openvpn blah.ovpn to start using the vpn connection and then close it with ctrl + c when done

if you wanna learn how to connect with the vpn
@plush bay - I connected via my mac - but then is best practices to use Kali then OpenVPN?
because of how virtual box works the vpn is better to connect to from inside the vm instead of the host os
Also, should I get the latest Kali, or are priv escalations limited if using an older version kali?
okie - it is very well explained there ๐
why are the other two options available on the tutorial if it mitigates the best practices?

How do i change my country flag ?
Might not be a "tech support issue, but I'm trying to figure out why this content is locked on my workspace page
I have a subscription plan, so I don't think it's a paywall issue. Is this something that I need to reach out to the owner of the workspace to figure out? Thanks much!
nope, just THM sub. Is the organization subscription different?
OK thanks. I'll reach out to the org and figure out why it's blocked. Thanks @gray loom

Hi Guys
I am having following error in running the powerview commands for the room. On side note, I did execute the command powershell -ep bypass which executed successfully.
https://tryhackme.com/room/postexploit
Here is the error screenshot.
Any help/suggestion is highly appreciated.
The only difference in blog vs what i did is
.\Downloads\PowerView.ps1
I'll try again tomorrow. For now, my machine has used its time.
You know you can create a Kali machine in Virtualbox and connect that to the VPN right?
can i get help... i totally forgot what my email address i signed up for tryhackme was. i only have my paypal email address which seems not to be the one registered
HI all, my country is showing as UK, but I'm in Canada. Is there any way to update? There is a post online that states I should go to /update-timezone, but this leads to a 404 error.
Are you using this one or the old link?
#site-support message
also make sure to not use a vpn when you try and update it
thanks a bunch, this seemed to have worked

You need to contact support for that.
i already did.
When?
hours ago
Support is a small team.
Did you get an auto reply telling you they aim to reply in 2-3 days?
what team? ๐
Jabba is support, but Muiri helps out sometimes too.

i recently contacted support and wait more than 3 day's but eventually i resolve my issue, be patient
Anyone had a problem backgrounding shells in metasploit on the AttackBox, when I press CTRL + Z, msfconsole just closes down, instead of asking if I want to background the session. ๐ค
Im creating a bunch of VMs and Virtual servers for a project im working on at home independently. Whats a good tool i can use to visually map it so i can see how everything is connected? Hopefully that doesnโt sound to dumb lol
Thank you!

hi guy, i'm new here. Can someone describe how to start hack basics. if you are interessed write me in private chat:)
#start-here would be a nice place to start :)
i hope but unfortnely idk nothing about it
@celest wadi yup connected, and got the ip I was using for the shell
What's the room/payload you're using?
kiba, I tried both this: https://github.com/LandGrey/CVE-2019-7609 and https://github.com/mpgn/CVE-2019-7609
exploit CVE-2019-7609(kibana RCE) on right way by python2 scripts - GitHub - LandGrey/CVE-2019-7609: exploit CVE-2019-7609(kibana RCE) on right way by python2 scripts
someone know some comand for terminal for mac??
Use the payload in the writeup and also
Can you connect to your port to check if the connection is even allowed,
nc <thm-ip> <port>
Try port 443
Also, give -e /bin/bash in nc ip port but it depends how nc was compiled
still connection refused
Have you installed any firewall programs that could be dropping the connection?
But they shouldn't bother with 443 tho
nope
In the meantime, you can finish the room with attackbox cuz I'm not sure what's blocking the connection
could it be anything in these settings?
also, thanks for trying to help

How much ram do you have?
cause giving it all the ram would only crash your PC
64
Are you bridged or nat @zealous radish ?
I know what the problem is then.
And it's not VPN related.
@zealous radish
You need to go to your C drive, then programs files (x86)
Vmware > Vmware Workstation.
Look for a program called "Vmnetcfg.exe" and run that as administrator
Your "Vmnet0" is your bridged adapter,
In the box that says Automatic, you need to change that to your Wi-fi adapter
Yeah, that caught me out too, I was too used to Vbox and their settings.
THANK YOU! it worked

Iโm trying to complete the Cross Site Scripting room in the Jr Pentesting Pathway. Unfortunately Iโve set up the payload but canโt get the session cookie to complete.
I know the payload works because if I go to the ticket it captureโs my own session cookie.
Iโve used NC and python Webserver and Iโve used TryHackMe Catcher but still nothing. Whatever automation thatโs running in the backend of the room doesnโt seem to be working and Iโve waited hours and used different machines.
Yeah Iโve actually restarted it a few times over this past week.
Is it possible to hack in spotify and change the lyrics to whatever i want?

Hello, I've been having trouble viewing websites in different machines. I am connected to the VPN and my nmap scans match those of the services running in the machines. However whenever I try to connect to an http:// <machine IP> in my browser, all the websites I've tested hang. What can I do?
I've tried with the SimpleCTF machine yesterday and now with the CMesS machine
Do you have one open now?
Yes
Which one?
I'm on my personal VM, running through the THM VPN, and my actual machine running through a personal VPN, VM is NAT bridged
your issue is running two VPN's
What's your target ip?
There is a single tun0 interface on the VM @Iassi
The command worked!
It's done, not that changes anything
