[burnt stirrup]

Just did Task 22 in aoc. The Azure thing. And wondered why they tell people to use bash there.

[grizzled wing]

Powershell

[burnt stirrup]

Select Bash, since we will be executing Azure CLI commands.

I did in Powershell and it works totally the same there

[wooden totem]

Everybody knows bash is for pro hackers

[grizzled wing]

BASH rocks

why not both

[rapid merlin]

love cool retro term

I wonder if any will be on darknet diaries

[grizzled wing]

i had a retro emulator that turned my terminal orange one

Darknet Diaries seems to be slowing down, less stories

[rapid merlin]

I noticed that too

[wooden totem]

how people look at you when you mention "hold on I gotta type sum shi in powerscheise"

[grizzled wing]

there is Hacker History podcast, that is good

[rapid merlin]

oh! cool will check that out thanks for mentioning

[loud marlin]

darknet diaries

[wooden totem]

dark net?

[rapid merlin]

I legit remember seeing one of those amber monitors, which plugged into one of these gems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules_Graphics_Card

[burnt stirrup]

I thought of cmd and not bash. But my point still stands.
I noticed some bias against Powershell in some rooms before.

You should avoid every nudge towards cmd for beginners

[sick lance]

It's a preference.

[boreal scarab]

Sudo has me blocked... can someone relay a message telling her that Jack said that he'll be slowing down the stories in a past episode?

[sick lance]

Veggies can see your message if she wants to.

Although being helpful, doing this completely renders the blocking useless.

[boreal scarab]

I don't even know why I was blocked. Oh well

[burnt stirrup]

a beginner does not have a preference

[rapid merlin]

one bias might be due to Microsoft inventing and throwing away often: Silverlight, J++, XNA etc.

compared to say bash which has a 35 years ago initial release (based on wiki)

[boreal scarab]

Back to my regularly scheduled programming of oogaling over different server parts 👀

[opaque flax]

I feel like the latest darknet diaries stories aren’t as good. The one about the dude who allegedly is a CISO for a siem company and a black hat hacker for hire robbing banks and admitting to it while saying he’d never get caught was total bs

[sick lance]

No, but this is being taught on a platform where the majority of the content is geared towards linux (Attackbox) so bash is suggested.

[burnt stirrup]

thats fair

[sick lance]

And I'm betting the number who use bash vs powershell will be weighted towards bash.

[boreal scarab]

mmmmm Fish

[burnt stirrup]

still the phrasing makes it sound neccessary Select Bash, since we will be executing Azure CLI commands.

[rapid merlin]

oh another shell 🙂

[boreal scarab]

I love the Fish Shell. For my needs, it's perfect

[willow lintel]

Guys anyone facing freezing issues with Mint faye while using Brave browser?

[boreal scarab]

With who?

ooooooooh. Linux Mint

[rapid merlin]

while it's pretty much the main goal to not do that with powershell. and cmd is also still here.

[boreal scarab]

Silly or lazy me! I am completely new to this linux system and pushing myself into this ecosystem. I installed it a few months back and now this is my primary machine.
By the way, if I consider upgrade should I go with Wilma or do you suggest choose any other distro? Normal user, professional needs gets covered in web browser, and personally looking into all these things that is this server all about🙂

[boreal scarab]

If you want the similarity, and familiarity to Windows, stick with Linux Mint.

If you want to veture out into the Linux realm, you got Ubuntu, Debian Based. Fedora, Red Hat based, Arch Linux, uh... good luck.

Do you need a chromium based browser, or would Firefox do?

[void tangle]

Beef Stew

[willow lintel]

Basically firefox would do, just couple of times when I need to cross check the designing etc of websites then only, the chromium based

@boreal scarab

[willow lintel]

Debian or Arch I wanna try but worried that I will lost and do something wrong😂

[loud marlin]

you will do smt wrong in any case

learn to fail, fail to learn

if start with linux. debian will be ok. it comes with pre installed lot's of things. arch is clean with almost nothing on it

[willow lintel]

Yes. Not worried about failing but I have 3-4 projects running and have only one machine. So thats why worried🥲

[loud marlin]

backup all the thoings ofc

[willow lintel]

So on arch, will need to install every software programs that I m gonna use?

[boreal scarab]

Debian is easy, especially Ubuntu, it's user friendly. The version you're using, Faye, is also Debian based, Wilam is Ubuntu Based, which is Debian based.

Arch, is.... Arch. I say again, Good luck. If you want headache 24/7. Run arch.

I use Arch BTW

[loud marlin]

yes. you can select what you wish. like kde, gnome and so. but no apps. no ff, no nothing asmot

tbh. when you select your id you do get some apps that is needed to run it

[boreal scarab]

Yah, Arch is very bare bones. YOU install what you want/ need. Nothing but the absolute bare bones for Arch to run is installed

[rapid merlin]

hello ! who for 1v1 on a challenge root-me ?

That’s fair enough

[rapid merlin]

true, same here

[rapid merlin]

I'm not using Linux either 🙂

[willow lintel]

That means stay away from the arch for a while.😂

Not telling everyone you meet that you use arch

[loud marlin]

i use arch. btw

[exotic vector]

it was hard, I was on CachyOS but a lot of people havent heard of it so I unironically had to say "its basically arch btw"

[upper knoll]

See even when it’s not arch you got to tell people it is

It never ends

[upper knoll]

I appreciate you proving my point!

[rapid merlin]

which arch do you use? amd64, arm64, riscv64?

💨

[loud marlin]

amd64. amr is smth else

[rapid merlin]

I know, I was being silly 🤓

[sand trench]

shadow personally uses easy to install and use arch linux

called endeavour os

they have made a lot of things easier to install

[half lion]

[rapid merlin]

https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive-unmatched

[rapid merlin]

I appreciate having installed Arch "the old way". Really helped me learn a lot of stuff and the archwiki is a beast for information and guidance 👍

Any one else having trouble with the openvpn

[sand trench]

yeah done that about 10 times in virtualmachines

the reason shadow got on endeavour os for this computer is because there was a bug in archinstall making it fail on nvme drives and shadow did not feel like setting it up manually so just defaulted

think that bug is patched so eh

[rapid merlin]

I had a goal of learning when I decided on installing, but if you want something that work out of the box I'm 100% up for Endeavour os 😄

[sand trench]

well considering how much shadow digs around in config files there has been plenty of learning

what are some ways to SSH a machine that is not on your private network? (except using VPN)

[mellow gull]

I am fairly certain that's on the list of things we can't advise you on.

[rapid merlin]

what you do for living

[polar holly]

@rapid merlin weirdness is the name of our game. People who enjoy these types of things as a hobby are usually the weird kind. Like me and @glass nest are wood geeks. We'd geek over wood and that's cool for us, but others might find this weird. So your brand of weird is what it is.

[glass nest]

True dat

[rapid merlin]

ohk i guess i'm one of you

[polar holly]

Ehhhh.... @glass nest what's up bud. 😊

[opaque flax]

I would definitely have had people say the things I’m interested in is weird

[polar holly]

Definitely. Especially since you work Forestry as well... (Not sure, that's way better than saying you're in the intelligence community imo)

[opaque flax]

I used to do scam baiting and it pissed my mom off because I “could be doing better things than wasting my time”

[rapid merlin]

i wish i could give some proofs to you

you are far way from reality

good night be safe

[polar holly]

Don't want any... I know the intelligence community... And not saying you shouldn't proclaim it, but Forestry is way better than that. Less secrets and if you have to tell secrets, those pesky trees don't talk back... 🤣

Would that also be unadvisable if were to try and turn my old laptop into a small linux machine i can ssh into from a far distance

You can do whatever you like with your own personal machine but saying "a device not in my network" doesn't establish enough sense of ownership.

So who here has heard about the new game... It's more hack than slash... 🥁

[small badge]

So if i were to say i wanted to set up a linux machine i can ssh into from my relatives place in a different location would work or be illegal or just as long as its a personal machine in my own personal network

[opaque flax]

ssh isn't illegal if its your own device

[sick lance]

That would be legal,

[opaque flax]

ssh is a legitimate remote tool

[sick lance]

You'd know the username: password...

[opaque flax]

or have the private key

[small badge]

Great to know im a very clumsy but cautious person

[mellow gull]

ssh is as simple as having that information and having the remote device be accessible

[rapid merlin]

or use the S/KEY 🙂

[opaque flax]

but you really shouldn't have ssh open to the internet

[rapid merlin]

remote public system login

[opaque flax]

it's better to setup a vpn

[small badge]

I have got into trouble for too many honest mistakes

[small badge]

How does that work

[polar holly]

And if it was illegal then a lot of folks who have to stay on those oil rigs who can't bring their own PC's onboard would be doing illegal actions. This is just based off of old information, things might have changed since then.

[opaque flax]

you create a vpn tunnel to your home network and then ssh is allowed from there when you connect to the vpn

[rapid merlin]

I like setting up whitelist firewall tables for incoming ssh

[opaque flax]

and that way no one has ssh access to your device unless they are on the vpn

[rapid merlin]

with netblocks

[opaque flax]

wireguard is good, tailscale is good, openvpn is good but I have never used it

[small badge]

Tunnel as in the same thing i use when connecting to thm through openvpn

[boreal scarab]

@loud marlin I'm printing something

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5746715

[opaque flax]

yeah same concept

[boreal scarab]

You know, usability

[sick lance]

The THM tun isn't encrypted.

[rapid merlin]

PerSourcePenalties is a nice new OpenSSH feature

[opaque flax]

i actually didn't know this

[loud marlin]

that will take time for sure

[small badge]

Is it easy to encrypt a tunnel?

[sick lance]

Yeah, it's only for reaching the machines and network

[small badge]

How safe would it be?

[boreal scarab]

4 hours

[polar holly]

That looks so awesome. I'm not sure what the everyday use for this is though, else I'd have said I'd be interested.

[opaque flax]

i knew that but I didn't know it wasn't encrypted

[boreal scarab]

Would take 11 hours if I went 0.1 layer height, put it to 0.3 layer height

[loud marlin]

fair

[opaque flax]

ill have to open wireshark and sniff the packets next time im on the vpn

[boreal scarab]

It's a battery dispenser, to dispense batteries for controllers, remotes, my cable tester

https://www.amazon.com/MFL-15-Plug-Checker-Indicators-Rectangular/dp/B0972J2ZR9 Love it

[polar holly]

I saw that, but what's the everyday use. Because I'd only need a replacement set every few odd months. So it doesn't warrent in my mind such device. It does look cool though.

[loud marlin]

@boreal scarab watch ya DM dumbo

[boreal scarab]

Save space, not having different packages of batteries laying around.

[finite tulip]

I have made 2 battery holders so that I can make sure I don't grab a dead battery, they were not quite as fancy as this though

That's a reason to have battery holders too

[polar holly]

Still don't see why I'd take that over keeping that one pack on hand which I'd use in a few months. Then again, I'm not reliant on batteries and this might be for those who go through several packs a day/week. I could just not be the end-user for this product, however not saying that I'm not impressed by such a product existing and how cool it looks.

[sick lance]

If it was encrypted, then that would give trouble connecting, rev shells etc.

That's why you don't use a personal VPN and the openVPN.

[opaque flax]

interesting

i tried setting up openvpn at one point but...wireguard was a lot easier to just get up and going

now i just use tailscale

[loud marlin]

is grea to have that all on router by default installed

[surreal void]

i still couldn't getopenvpn to work on linux

[sick lance]

Which country?

[opaque flax]

like running an openvpn server?

[surreal void]

[opaque flax]

or connecting to the thm openvpn

[surreal void]

connecting thm to open vpn i echo AI helped a lot but i couldnt figure it out

[opaque flax]

getting an error after running sudo openvpn /path/to/vpn.ovpn?

[surreal void]

Options error: In [CMD-LINE]:1: Error opening configuration file: richfromccs.ovpn
Use --help for more information.

[opaque flax]

did you download a new vpn file?

did you do a new region?

[surreal void]

i tried a new file however i did not try a new region i should probably give that a try

echo recommened me to configure the text file to--data-ciphers AES-256-GCM but to no avail

Agreed. You’re either doing ethical or unethical hacking really

It’s slightly more nuanced but it boils down to that

[opaque flax]

It’s either legal or it’s not

[split ore]

imagine some ppl even WEAR these hats

[warped grail]

i hack myself is that ethical or unethical

[mellow gull]

By definition it's ethical since you've given yourself permission

[amber hound]

i think purely that the reason tech roles are portrayed in action movies is just to incentivize the population to occupy those positions and raise the production of <insert role>

[glass nest]

It's also appropriating a label which ultimately is used to dictate the actions of that person while they try to live up to that self-assigned label

[grizzled wing]

ethical if you gave yourself permission

Outside of that I don't really have any use for the other features they got.

[mellow gull]

I totally get it. I do make frequent use of its other benefits so I still pay, but I can see why others wouldn't.

[dark frost]

Yeah

[sick lance]

For the 3rd time.

[exotic vector]

[boreal scarab]

@naive violet This vid might be up your alley

[naive violet]

Oh, sstv, neat

Shame they deleted it?

[boreal scarab]

Didn't mean it in a delete way, it was something cool

[mellow gull]

That was a terrified delete

[naive violet]

Matt I got a new callsign now, and I am allowed 100W

Ex-Hacker , lol
A hacker a days , a hacker forever

[silver sky]

Do you not know who he is?

He is technically an ex-criminal hacker

[dark frost]

You ?

[silver sky]

Nope

Marcus Hutchins, also known online as MalwareTech, is a British computer security researcher known for stopping the WannaCry ransomware attack.

[dark frost]

Holy shit

[grizzled wing]

if people were doing today's challenge would read that haha

[boreal scarab]

So your max is 100w, or 100w more than what your past license allowed?

[sick lance]

In the most stupidest way possible

[silver sky]

Well sinkholing the killswitch

[sick lance]

Yeah, he bought the domain that wasn't calling home.

[boreal scarab]

But but but... this is practical

2 hours to print a 10mm and 20mm version for the 16i. Debating which to go with, and what the temps will be on it when I plug it in

[naive violet]

100W allowed now, up from 25W

[boreal scarab]

Now that's a massive improvement

[naive violet]

4x

I wasn't allowed much power at all at 2.4GHz but now... 100w

I think 5w before

[boreal scarab]

All you need now is equipment to push that much power

[naive violet]

Exactly!

hi there, i have a question to the more experienced cysec and ethhack people here, who started their learning path on tryhackme

back when i grinded half a year ago, i realized that i was forgetting so much shit because i never took notes and that caught up to after a while

also i speedran stuff i maybe shouldn't have speedrunned

[naive violet]

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325856480874

[snow palm]

speedran

[lament tendon]

I stared learning cybersecurity on THM, did a bunch of development stuff beforehand tho.

Taking notes is insanely important.

[naive violet]

I started here too

[snow palm]

so i'm guessing the best idea is to reset my account completely and start from scratch, taking notes. what is your recommended program / way to take notes?

[boreal scarab]

Damn that thing is beefy AF!

[naive violet]

I like Trilium for notes

[snow palm]

usually i'm a simple notepad guy however i can imagine that can get chaotic for that amount

[naive violet]

Main thing is to refer back to them often

[lament tendon]

Many people use Obsidian or Trillium (with git integration).
I personally just use neovim and git.

[naive violet]

Eventually you'll stop referring to them so much anyway

[lament tendon]

Take your notes in a a language called "Markdown". It's a lot easier to organize and read.

[snow palm]

alright, thanks for the recommendations, i'll check those out. next question would be: how exactly did you take notes? i personally never took notes in school and i'm still not taking them in university (which explains my grades there) so i've never really "learned" how to take notes. is there any tips you can give me on that regard?

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @lament tendon (current: #37 - 236)

[lament tendon]

I can send you a screenshot of how I ogranized them, if yuo want me to.

[snow palm]

yeah, that's great!

[lament tendon]

Usually I have one file per topic, and then organize those into folder structures.

[naive violet]

Notes are so very personal IMO
The content is generally the bones of what I need to remember on the topic

[snow palm]

so one topic is basically one room or a collection of rooms then (by collection i mean something like active directory hacking then) ?

[lament tendon]

Here's how my main notes direcory looks. There's a lot more, but it does not fit on screen.

[lament tendon]

Active Directory Hacking would already be a full directory for me.
One file in there would then, for example, be about kerberoasting.

But how exactly you keep your stuff in check does not matter that much, as long as it all follows a unified system.

And you can find things quickly.

[snow palm]

i see, but that's already a lot of help, so thanks and

[snow palm]

thank you!

[lament tendon]

Always happy to help. ^_^

[fleet turtle]

It's been a while since I've been active here 😅

Definitely gonna do cybersec as a hobby again, purely because the community is so great

[lament tendon]

(+rep @naive violet )

Did the bot die?

[naive violet]

Not that I need it lol

[rapid merlin]

Thanks, fixed it 🙂

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @naive violet (current: #2 - 2227)

[lament tendon]

Eh. It's a polite thing to do.

[naive violet]

It's alive, huh, ok

[lament tendon]

Maybe it didn't like the brackets.

[snow palm]

+rep @snow palm

well

[mellow gull]

Fair try.

[snow palm]

would have been too funny if that worked

[lament tendon]

Many have tried, even more have failed.

xD

[mellow gull]

You are not the first

Nor shall you be the last

Carry this shame with you until your dying days

[snow palm]

your charme is truly heartwarming

[mellow gull]

I am known for being cute, helpful, and wordy; sometimes not all three, but usually at least one. This will be my sole egotistical moment of the day.

[opaque flax]

i havent turned off my kali vm in a long time just "paused" it. I am up to tun2 now cause im not killing my other ovpn processes

[snow palm]

well at least you know how to make people feel special. maybe not always in a positive way, but it's something

[mellow gull]

You are an extremely special individual, a unique and solitary result of your lived experiences and memories. There will never be another you, and my only hope is that person is someone you're happy being.

[lament tendon]

Considering the "monkey sits at typewrite for an infinite amount of time"-theory, there have been and will be an infinite amount of you forever. ^_^

[mellow gull]

There are two wolves inside you
