general

[lone thistle]

no 🫶

I got 6k+ hours in eve online

basically the same

[rose tusk]

idle simulation

and resource management

[lone thistle]

I got some time on Melvor

[rose tusk]

I feel you, I am still yet to play a souls like where I can actually parry

[lone thistle]

but then it got just toooooo complicated if I wanna idle game I wanna switch my brain off

[lone thistle]

God of War especially ragnarok is satisfying af if you can parry

what's your go to retro game? 😄

[rose tusk]

got the first one on steam

plz mention Noita

[lone thistle]

have you played yet? 😄

[sinful moon]

I mean as of late, Rollercoaster Tycoon 1/2, but lol I play them all. I am addicted to retro computing and retro gaming

[lone thistle]

The GoW series I somehow managed to avoid all spoilers for and my mate was like brug you need to play this

played it

[sinful moon]

OpenRCT2 is just lovely though

[lone thistle]

the first one I couldn't put it down for about 4 days straight

Ragnarok I played non stop for 4/5 days

[rose tusk]

I got like 300 steam games from which like 5 100%

[lone thistle]

one of the best series ever alongside alan wake

[lone thistle]

OpenRCT2 🫶

[rose tusk]

got Alan wake on ps4 cd haha

[sinful moon]

I’ve got over 1,300 steam games but we won’t discuss that lol

[lone thistle]

oh man few stories have got me hooked like that ever

Alan Wake & GoW

consumed me

https://tenor.com/view/fishing-viralhog-pulling-up-the-fishing-line-gif-1034755169265513021

[rose tusk]

oh yeah the only game I could properly parry was ghostrunner 1, 2 was quite eek on parries

[lone thistle]

oh also Deus Ex

gaaad damn

😮‍💨

[rose tusk]

thats old lol

[rose tusk]

humble bundles?

family share?🫶

[sinful moon]

Parries usually suck unless they have a very obvious visual and auditory marker

[rose tusk]

I'm joking BTW

[sinful moon]

humble bundle and nearly 20 year old account lol

[lone thistle]

that was my difficulty with GoW. The timing is super narrow, a very brief visual marker, and you need to be perfect to get them

PLUS, if you press the button/key to parry twice (I.e. spam the key) you actually get worse off. You don;t parry and you lose your block

[rose tusk]

humble bundle has like 2 3 good games a month nowadays and then flops for a few months

[lone thistle]

'tis rough

[sinful moon]

Yeah I just meant the early good humble bundles lol, but sales and etc for the rest

[rose tusk]

I tried my luck with sekiro and ds3 didn't work out very well but will dive into them again at some point

[rose tusk]

yeah a few years ago they had really good games and bundles

[lone thistle]

yeah ds3 😮‍💨

i loved but hated it passionately

[lone thistle]

amazing selection there

[sinful moon]

Thanks! by far some of my all time faves c:

[rose tusk]

I'm a filthy casual lol

[sinful moon]

lol as one would hope

[sinful moon]

lol you’re more than fine

my actual top playtime…

[lone thistle]

my main acc isn't too terrible

[opaque flax]

im a casual with my 300 game library

[lone thistle]

my alt is a bit more yikes

[rose tusk]

[rugged kayak]

[lone thistle]

those 300 of dota2 was from mid -> today 2024

[sinful moon]

to be fair for me this year it was more Cyberpunk 2077

[lone thistle]

yeah that's reasonable. I can't approve of it either. My mates got me into it.

I was a die hard LoL player since 2012 up until this year

[rose tusk]

let's do a thm chained together

[lone thistle]

and christ don't get me started on the hours in WoW etc

[sinful moon]

if they didnt push vanguard into LoL i would be still playing but i havent touched it in almost a year

[lone thistle]

my ol' mate at uni failed his cause because of kingdom hearts

[opaque flax]

where do i go for my steam repaly

[lone thistle]

well that and poker

[sand trench]

meep moops time for the sleep sloops to the beep boops

[lone thistle]

gn shadow:)

[sinful moon]

goodnight shadow!

[lone thistle]

yeahhhhh very agree

there are so many more actual impactful issues like griefing/toxicity/win trading than one or two high elo player scripting

[sinful moon]

Usually it just shows up as one of the “news” things on your steam client popups when you start it

[rose tusk]

https://store.steampowered.com/yearinreview/76561198073888643/2024

[opaque flax]

i had to go into the web browser

[rugged kayak]

you cant get rid of toxicty tho

[rose tusk]

you can add it on your profile as a tile then you can share it haha

[rugged kayak]

bait ping incident

[opaque flax]

oh yeah just haad to go here

[lone thistle]

private profile bestie

[rose tusk]

I climbed to dia then gave up January 2024

s0 till this year

[lone thistle]

i got chat muted for saying gg nice try (meaning it well as in it was a good match). but no you're right

[opaque flax]

never forget malevelon creek

[clear jackal]

Lol, I played 5 games on pc all year

[rugged kayak]

i was sitting at honor 0 for almost a year

[rose tusk]

that sounds like a you problem. I've just disabled my chat and had honor 5 3 years straight

[clear jackal]

My playtime on steam is less than 10 hours for the year I think

[rose tusk]

had all the chromas on twitch and ww

[lone thistle]

pog

now it makes sense 😄

[rugged kayak]

honeslty most fun part of the games was arguing with angry people

[lone thistle]

I was a thresh one trick and a udyr jungle

yeah you can roast me

[rose tusk]

I spammed ksante since release

[rugged kayak]

i was playing vayne top

[rose tusk]

and yone

[lone thistle]

I can account for about 10 dents in my desk because of vayne top

cheers riot 👍

[sinful moon]

okie I’m back, not that anyone noticed lol

[rugged kayak]

vayne, kaisa, senna and evelynn

[rose tusk]

I share the frustration

[sinful moon]

I am curious what this current argument is about lol

[eternal timber]

Welcome back

[rose tusk]

best counter I found, comet malphite

max q and frozen heart first item

[rugged kayak]

true

[lone thistle]

just talkin' about league of legends 😄

[sinful moon]

oh ouch lol

[rugged kayak]

malph is best counter for her

[sinful moon]

no wonder

[rugged kayak]

or any adc in general

[lone thistle]

malph max q & fh was 1v9

[rose tusk]

ksante was still a bigger monster

[lone thistle]

garen warmogs

[sinful moon]

play a less toxic game <3

lol sorry, it had to be said

[rose tusk]

I was a die hard dota 1 fan

[lone thistle]

haha yeah

[rugged kayak]

i "invested" maybe around 2-3k hours into it

[lone thistle]

Im basically immune to any BM and trashtalk because I was a diehard LoL player from 2012 to 2021

[rose tusk]

I was 14 or 15 when I started playing league

[rugged kayak]

all during covid

[lone thistle]

you can't say nuffin I ain't heard 50x

[sinful moon]

2-3K in Euro Truck Simulator 2 tho and you just be chilling

[rose tusk]

my account is worth like a solid £8k from all the limited skins I have

[lone thistle]

I got a season 2 border on my loading screen im just a grandad in a rocking chair

[lone thistle]

euro truck is the most chill watching podcast/some trash on youtube etc game ever I love it

can't talk

[rugged kayak]

jesus christ

[lone thistle]

I got hazardous goods to deliver

[blazing granite]

reading carefully and try to figure it out what the hell people are talking about, I'm -10 in games 😂

[sinful moon]

same same, it’s lovely c:

[rose tusk]

I had 800+ skins and like stupid amount of icons, wards and chromas even legendary ones

[lone thistle]

Have you ever played on TruckersMP?

[upper knoll]

Please no more tokens never again

[rose tusk]

or just go man mode and shred aliens on warframe

[upper knoll]

I do miss warframe played the hell out of that on console

[rose tusk]

it got better from what I've been told

I'm way behind new war and 99 and all the other bits

[lone thistle]

warframe yeah i been a bit on and off on it. I prefer a game to tell me upfront that it's grindy. If I want grindy I'll play RS, WoW, EvE, etc 😄

[upper knoll]

I knew so hardcore pay for wins and I never swapped from console to pc I missed the window so didn’t get it back into it

[lone thistle]

the movement is sliiiick though good fun

[rose tusk]

yeah and some of the newer frames are mental

like xaku I think it was called

last I played harrow was released haha

[clear jackal]

RS meaning runescape?

[lone thistle]

aye 😄

[clear jackal]

Aye

[lone thistle]

or rather old school runescape specifically

[clear jackal]

We should make a THM guild

[lone thistle]

i'd be down if we had enough

I don't really play it anymore but if I had a purpose to fo' shure

[clear jackal]

My OSRS is Ironman mode I think

[sinful moon]

nah not really, mp isn’t usually my thing

[rose tusk]

hard-core player ffs

[upper knoll]

Go hard or go home

[sinful moon]

I did enjoy what I played of warframe but I din’t go all out I guess

[clear jackal]

My RS3 account is my OG

[upper knoll]

[rose tusk]

iron-man is go harderer or don't play at all

[lone thistle]

yes but also ironically easier I think these days. The modern RS is quite complex

as in a picking up and learning PoV

got all the spells and stuff

[clear jackal]

Yeah, I haven't really played played RS3

[sinful moon]

lol I don’t know what the heck to do in modern RS, but I’m sure that’s accurate to the original

[clear jackal]

I login when I get the itch, grind a skill until I get bored, and then log out for 6 months

[lone thistle]

yuuup same

[sinful moon]

I remember refusing to do original RS when it was new because Java lol

[clear jackal]

I don't have any 99 skills because I've almost always been f2p

Got my decade cape before any 99s

[lone thistle]

if I wanna chill these days MSFS has got me hooked

made me a bit of a AV nerd

[upper knoll]

That the flight sim I see you on?

[opaque flax]

what do you thionk of 2024?

[lone thistle]

refunded it

[sinful moon]

Minecraft beta was unsuprisingly what got me to break my Anti-java streak lol

[lone thistle]

needs at least half a year before I'll consider picking it up again

I was so excited for it

the new releases and features esp. career mode was so exciting

it's an absolute mess especially for £70

[sinful moon]

From what I heard, it really doesn’t offer much in comparison

[upper knoll]

£70

OMG

[opaque flax]

i havei have gamepass so

[lone thistle]

a pic from my photos 😄 im in bristol rn

[upper knoll]

ahh Bristol

[sinful moon]

still tho

[upper knoll]

Where you find humans in suitcases on bridges

[lone thistle]

when it's fully fledged I think it definitely will esp. carreer mode - I was missing that so much from this one

but it's an absolute garbage heap

not to mention the entire streaming of data

yes that's right - you have to download on demand for basically everything. Textures, etc

[sinful moon]

Mhmm, I”m just waiting to let it bake either way

[lone thistle]

MSFS2020 was annoying because of the huge install but playing 2024 made me thankful for it

[lone thistle]

something in the air im sure

[upper knoll]

Yer I feel like that doesn’t fix the issue

[lone thistle]

it's not worse than london

[upper knoll]

Nothing could be

[lone thistle]

yeahhhh...I'm following along with dev updates and maybe if it goes on sale I'll pick it up

for now 2020 keeps me plenty entertained

[upper knoll]

I swear this man is going to be a cyber security paramedic pilot at this rate

[sinful moon]

Yeah same, and honestly I need to play more of 2020 as it is lol. Had great fun but nowhere near my same hours as truck sim

[lone thistle]

collecting them like scout badges

[upper knoll]

You asking to get drafted

[loud marlin]

what is time 0-100 kmh ? and how much fuel that thing drink on 100km ?

[lone thistle]

a320 is about 0-100kmh in 10-15 secs

fuel is uh

weight & pilot dependant

[upper knoll]

Way more with chonky pilot

[lone thistle]

it's the steel balls

[upper knoll]

Also no joke is someone sends or shows me one more token I might die

I think they will haunt my dreams for a week

[lone thistle]

token?

[sinful moon]

lol I was about to start arguing cars until I realized once more what we were on about

[lone thistle]

a320 is honda's flagship didn't ya know? 😄

[sinful moon]

m8 look at my Honda NSX

[loud marlin]

is it ok to open window and do "dolphin" thing with hand in air ? 😉

[upper knoll]

I did session management and jwt rooms today

[lone thistle]

if I ever fly one IRL i'll let you know

[loud marlin]

and if kids cry and so being loud. can they go outside and play ?

[opaque flax]

i have this nasty habit of going on my own in hell divers

[lone thistle]

ahhhh

[upper knoll]

So many tokens

[lone thistle]

I mean they can

[loud marlin]

in that case. pls do not listen my ideas. i learn a lot from mistakes of ppl who did listen me 😉

[upper knoll]

One of my last plane rides the flight attendant gave a screaming child calpol to make them quiet

[sinful moon]

it would be quite inadvisable but yes they indeed can

[lone thistle]

calpol the goat though

🐐

[rose tusk]

AFAIK jumping from a plane without parachute is a once in a lifetime chance

[upper knoll]

I just found it wild

[lone thistle]

swear they laced that stuff with some form of crack

[upper knoll]

Yer it was one of the flavoured ones

So that massive dose of sugar one

[lone thistle]

amoxicillin trihydrate iirc the banana medicine

[sinful moon]

idk it would hurt the aero of the wings but I could imagine playpens for the youngins

[upper knoll]

Idk not sure I’d want a teething toddler on the wing of my plane

[lone thistle]

ok wooof I had a quite dark joke for that but I'll bite my tongue

[upper knoll]

I remember that shit so vividly

[sinful moon]

that’s why they’d be in protected tubes

[upper knoll]

I also had an anaseed one ugh

[loud marlin]

Di-hydrogen monoxide... bad stuff... extra addictive thing...

[lone thistle]

LMFAO

good one

[sinful moon]

I do love how this sounds like the worst 1960s airline board meeting

[upper knoll]

Nah we haven’t discussed smoking in the plane yet

Can’t miss that

[loud marlin]

hope you did hear that 1st april joke that end with dramatic conclusion...

[upper knoll]

But we gotta update it for the zoom zooms and make it vaping these days

[lone thistle]

hot take

i'd pay x2 the fare for a long flight if it meant that adults were only on board

granted, some adults are as insufferable as crying babys but

[upper knoll]

If I wasn’t a broke bitch agreed

[sinful moon]

can’t complain lol

[upper knoll]

I’ve yet to meet the fabled plane Karen

I’m curious what that’s like

[sinful moon]

I remember thinking as a kid, how could adults dislike kids,

sorry kid

[lone thistle]

😄

[sinful moon]

at the same time I did get along very well with adults

[blazing granite]

I dislike kids 😂

[sinful moon]

just like lol always an odd spot for me

[upper knoll]

Depends on the child

Some are less insufferable than others

[lone thistle]

the thing i've learnt with puppies is that they're just like kids

just gotta tire them out

[sinful moon]

lol

sounds about right

[upper knoll]

My sister kid must be a reincarnated border collie because that child does not run out of steam

[lone thistle]

there's almost a 1:1 to a puppy and a young kid

my parents had got a boxer since I was last back

[blazing granite]

I have 0 patience with kids

[lone thistle]

that thing could power a house on pure energy

[upper knoll]

Yer

Like I wish I could just steal an ounce of that energy for myself

[lone thistle]

taking them fro a 40 min walk tires the humans out more than the dog

[blazing granite]

Thank god, my sister is single so no nieces or nephews 😂

[upper knoll]

I have two nieces and if the second one matches the first

I’m fucked

Thank all hell I’m getting in shape I might literally take them for a run if I end up baby sitting

[lone thistle]

alllllright that was good fun

bed time for me proper now 😎 gngn(:

Metasploit pdf

[opaque flax]

okay maybe try googling something else

[mellow gull]

There are alternatives to pdf lol

[fleet thicket]

google, it. I've already googled it (oldest lie ever) 😂

[fleet thicket]

I am just a beginner and one of my friends told me I want to better in cyber and hacking I need to learn metasploit

[upper knoll]

Someone’s looking how to learn metasploit

[mellow gull]

There are a couple steps that come before metasploit my man

[upper knoll]

^^

[fleet thicket]

Ohk

[opaque flax]

a part of learning hacking is reasearch

[knotty pendant]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ostmx1IgTM

[upper knoll]

You can just go

[opaque flax]

and self learning

[upper knoll]

Ooo hacking tool

Learn that

And be a hacker or good at cyber security

[opaque flax]

we can help guide but wont give you the answer

also before you use metasploit please do not use it on a random target

learn about ethical hacking

[fleet thicket]

Anything man,

[fleet thicket]

Okayy

[boreal scarab]

https://a.co/d/2L1Y5QD

Book

[upper knoll]

Yer as I mentioned we gotta know your not using it for malicious purposes and people are more willing to help

[fleet thicket]

Thanks

[blazing granite]

also don't jump to a tool without learning the basics first

[upper knoll]

^

Networking Linux all that good stuff

[fleet thicket]

Im not even familiar with it bro🤣

[upper knoll]

Doesn’t matter

[mellow gull]

That doesn't tell us at all what your intentions are lmao

[opaque flax]

you know its a hacking tool

[fleet thicket]

So what do you. Guys recommended I learn first and how

[opaque flax]

#start-here

[fleet thicket]

Yes,

[mellow gull]

Fundamentals, basic Linux

What Malarum posted

[upper knoll]

^

If you don’t understand basic networking and Linux you fudged

[mellow gull]

If you can't navigate directories and manage your own device metasploit will blow your mind

[upper knoll]

Yer imagine trying to alter a payload without basic command Linux knowledge

[fleet thicket]

I don't know what you guys are talking about 🤦hmmm

[upper knoll]

Yer see

That’s the problem

[opaque flax]

thats why you need to learn the basics

before you can get to hacking

[blazing granite]

that's the whole point, start to walk and then you will be able to run 🙂

[fleet thicket]

Okay

[opaque flax]

tryhackme will be a great help

it has paths for pre-security

[upper knoll]

^

[opaque flax]

fundamentals

and cyber-security 101

which will help you learn the basics and help you learn how to do this ethically

[fleet thicket]

Thanks everyone

[upper knoll]

Allg we are all happy to help

But learning how to teach yourself and learn from the tools out there will be far more helpful than us giving you answers

[opaque flax]

im trying over the wire for the first time

[jolly aspen]

No one mentioned metasploitable earlier when OS’s was a topic. I put my hat in for that being the best OS for daily use

[upper knoll]

Icl I’m brain fried from a cold and far too much token manipulation

[jolly aspen]

Way better than arch imo

[upper knoll]

Careful you’ll bring them back out the wood work

[jolly aspen]

So, that’s where they’re hiding

[upper knoll]

They never hide

[jolly aspen]

In the wood 🪵

[upper knoll]

They just wait until they see the opportunity to talk about arch

Also how can I rank up on discord?

[blazing granite]

what you do in the site reflects here

[steep mountain]

Okay great

[jolly aspen]

profiles only update once every 24 hours. I don't know the magical hour but if you wait a day you should see your rank reflected here

[loud marlin]

or re verify with bot to update

[hazy urchin]

Is it good external storage medium for running an OS (kali)? I was going to go with an usb drive
Currently I used windows 11 I was going to go with dual boot but many suggested it will consume to much memory creating load on system
and also is it good to use drive and if yes which drive should I use
And also should I go with metal or plastic ( I've heard metal get heated a lot and plastic doesn't despiate the heat and at the end they throttle)

[knotty pendant]

idk

[opaque flax]

it's like a new thing each night

the same thing every night is a bit boring, isn't it? 😂

[opaque flax]

i guess but it's just gifs and pics

This is just the evolution of the glitter gif memes from the early 2000s

And it's just as low taper brow as it was then

im doing things I have never done before

[opaque flax]

i mean

[mellow gull]

repeatedly compressed

LMAO

[opaque flax]

a hex file that has been repeatedly compressed

aaahhhh

I had to look up how to reverse a hex file

which this is good but i think ive decompressed the file 3 or 4 times now and its still not there yet

its gone from gzip to bzip to gzip to now tar

[mellow gull]

How deep does the well go

[opaque flax]

who knows ill find out

it's definitely testing my linux skills

[mellow gull]

The linux version of hiding a christmas pr-

DID YOU

TRY TO use A tERMINAl COMMANd

I'm so sorry brother

[opaque flax]

I WASNT TABBED INTO MY SSH TERMINAL

whats under the tar? another tar!

[mellow gull]

This is like the linux version of putting a christmas present inside of twenty progressively smaller boxes

[opaque flax]

oop now it's a bzip

[mellow gull]

Progress! maybe

[opaque flax]

woo I got it!

bzip went to another tar which went to another bzip which went to a gzip which went to ascii

but i learned about xxd -r so

[mellow gull]

So, like

eight layers?

[opaque flax]

yeah 8 rounds of compression

then dumped into hex

[mellow gull]

At least hex isn't complicated to decrypt

[opaque flax]

no it's not

but I just haven't done if before

i have never heard of the xxd command until today

[mellow gull]

Neither have I!

[mellow gull]

You can just hexdump whatever file you want?

That's kinda cool

i checked my dms i had like 5 unsolicited dms

[mellow gull]

You agreed to the rules of this server by joining it

So you should know that's not cool

[vocal matrix]

Pls I need someone to guide me

M srry

[opaque flax]

well the rules say don't send dms or friend requests w/o asking for permission

[vocal matrix]

I forgot

Pls I'm really srry

I'ma go cancel it

Okay, what do you need help with?

[opaque flax]

if you want to learn you can ask here

we are more than happy to help

[vocal matrix]

Umm like

[mellow gull]

Oh, you need help, help

[vocal matrix]

Just whoami
History

[vocal matrix]

Yh

[opaque flax]

you hsould take the linux fundamentals course

in tryhackme

[vocal matrix]

Really

[opaque flax]

that is what it is there for

[mellow gull]

Linux Fundamentals will do you a lot of good, yes. Because it teaches you the fundamentals.

[vocal matrix]

Aiit

[opaque flax]

have you taken any tryhackme courses yet?

or just downloaded kali?

[vocal matrix]

Thank y'all
I appreciate

[vocal matrix]

Just downloaded kali

[opaque flax]

so #start-here

[blazing granite]

so learn linux fundamental before using linux, it's like trying to use a pc, but don't know how to turn it on

[opaque flax]

youll want to take the beginners courses

[vocal matrix]

Exactly

[opaque flax]

complete-beginner, pre-security, cybersecurity 101

then you can start messing with kali

[vocal matrix]

Taking pre-security

Buh did i make the right choice by downloading kali

And not Ubuntu
Or Black Arch

Or parrot

[opaque flax]

you should download ubuntu

stay away from arch

[mellow gull]

If you need a daily driver, just get Ubuntu

[opaque flax]

how are you using kali?

in a virtual machine?

or installed onto your pc?

[vocal matrix]

In virtual machine

[opaque flax]

okay

[mellow gull]

Oh then it's not a big deal

[vocal matrix]

Yh

[opaque flax]

actually forget that

just

you can use kali in the fundamentals courses

[vocal matrix]

How m I gonna download Ubuntu

[opaque flax]

its the same just with extra tools

the same way you got a kali vm

just download the iso and install the vm

[mellow gull]

The internet is your friend

[vocal matrix]

Aiit

True

[opaque flax]

but follow the beginner courses

don't try to get ahead

you need a solid foundation before you can start hacking

[vocal matrix]

Just started learning dorking

[mellow gull]

Kali shouldn't be used for daily browsing, but it will have everything you need for THM

[blazing granite]

don't try to run before you learn how to walk 🙂

[vocal matrix]

THM??

[mellow gull]

Yes, THM

hi I saw this short by 0day on yt https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CX6vpwRBj9w
and got a question, so correct me if I'm wrong, but iirc internal information like this related to a vehicle is broadcast internally on the CAN bus where other parts of the vehicle can receive and act on that information, and then there's the vehicle's RF communication protocol which the car keys use for e.g to send commands, but I thought RF and CAN bus are separate? as in if I wanted to see info on the CAN bus I have to physically connect my laptop to the CAN bus and listen on it. but you seem to be doing it wirelessly, does that mean you can recv/send info to the CAN bus over RF?

[umbral grove]

The tire pressure sensors , are inside the tires ,no Can bus cable can go there , so they are RF communications 😁

On the can bus there may be a RF transmitter / receiver to send those data to main systeme , this is the informations he is sniffing in the video

[jade wing]

So I'm going through all the basics right now despite being well "past them" in my career. For the sake of completion since I'm new to the site. Just making sure I double check my knowledge, making sure not to use any write ups, and ensuring if there was something new to learn I may have missed in my career I do.

So I get to the wireshark section of sec101 and I'm thinking ugh, going through pcaps is so painful irl

and dude, that was a fun room. Hunting the alien down and finding its name was super unique and I really enjoyed it.

[west ingot]

majority is free..?

Yes , majority of the rooms in this pathway are free . Currently there's no pathway on THM which is 100% free 🙂 .

[cerulean marlin]

Hey guys please i wanna to ask if someone is familiar with openvpn and the iptables i have a pb routing the traffic through tor

Anyone guys?

[jade wing]

What specifically is the question, also, why are you doing that?

also do you understand what iptables is?

It's going to be unique to you.

There is no global "iptables" we can reference

[vernal remnant]

i dont understand the idea behind serialization. is the data converted into machine readable format? does it help with speed?

[cerulean marlin]

I'm getting an error when i add some iptables rules

[cerulean marlin]

Yes

[jade wing]

Ok so start there, what is your error you are getting?

[cerulean marlin]

So i host an openvpn server on tor and i done everything the certificates like everything and tor's working good but i wanna to route all the traffic you know through tor even if i'm not connecting with a client but i got somethings so the torrc file is good everything but i have a problem when i'm using netstat it showing me only the tcp of tor is listening but the default one for dns that is 53 and the tor's one 9053 nothing like the place where it should show me listening or not there is just a blank like that place is empty i try with ss but the same i bind it to my local sys and nothing happen but when i add some iptables rules and save them i got like an error when i test it with curl say there is a tls failed handshake or something like that

[cerulean marlin]

?

[jade wing]

yea man I'm typing chill

[cerulean marlin]

Aight

[jade wing]

Check Tor Configuration (torrc)

Ensure the Tor configuration is correct:

Look for the DNS port configuration:
DNSPort 9053
If not set, add this line and restart Tor.
Bind the DNSPort to localhost:
DNSListenAddress 127.0.0.1
Verify that Tor's VirtualAddrNetwork is enabled:
VirtualAddrNetworkIPv4 10.192.0.0/10
Test Tor Ports

Run these commands to confirm Tor is listening on the expected ports:

netstat -tuln | grep -E '53|9053|9050'
If ports aren't listening:

Restart Tor: sudo systemctl restart tor
Check logs: sudo journalctl -u tor
Test OpenVPN and Tor Integration

Verify OpenVPN configuration (server.conf or equivalent):
Ensure redirect-gateway def1 is set to route all client traffic through OpenVPN.
Ensure DNS servers are set to Tor's DNS port (127.0.0.1:9053).
Check if OpenVPN is properly connecting:
sudo systemctl status openvpn
4. Address iptables Rules
Improper iptables rules could block traffic or misroute it. Use these steps:

Flush Current iptables Rules

Clear all rules to start fresh:

sudo iptables -F
sudo iptables -t nat -F
Set Up Basic Rules

Assuming eth0 is the network interface:

# Route all traffic through Tor
sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner openvpn -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9040

# Allow DNS through Tor's DNSPort
sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9053

# Allow traffic for Tor to work
sudo iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner debian-tor -j ACCEPT
Persist Rules

Save the rules:

sudo sh -c "iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4"
5. Validate the Setup
Test with Curl:
curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9050 https://check.torproject.org
This should confirm traffic is routing through Tor.
Test DNS: Use dig to check DNS resolution via Tor:
dig @127.0.0.1 -p 9053 example.com
Test OpenVPN: Connect a client and ensure traffic routes through Tor:
traceroute example.com

These are examples of how you can troubleshoot and check configs, I don't know your network config so start there.

Thats about as much as I can give you at the moment, hope this helps. Keep in mind this is general chat, but not tech support for the random thing I am trying to do chat (IMO).

Good luck to you.

[cerulean marlin]

I already do all that but still getting the same

[jade wing]

When you say getting the same, what specifically are you getting just the DNS issues you mentioned?

[cerulean marlin]

Yup

[jade wing]

if the ports are not bound, and you have not set them in IP tables, and you have not configured TOR to use all of that and restarted the service, it won't resolve. These are about the only things I can think of unless your home router is forcing spefic DNS resolution.

That would be the other place I would look

[cerulean marlin]

I swear i already do all what u say man but idk what's the pb😭😭

[jade wing]

You running this OS in a VM? That adds another layer

[cerulean marlin]

Os

[jade wing]

?

[cerulean marlin]

I mean directly

On the os my os is linux

[jade wing]

Ok, so now look to where the traffic is going, when you trace the traffic, and you make the request, does from your PC directly, attempt to query DNS on 53?

[cerulean marlin]

Yup

But just understand me

[jade wing]

Give me the output of the above three places I told you to check. Obviously redact sensitive info, but leave like the last octet or last two octets so I can diffrentiate

[cerulean marlin]

When i add some rules curl give me an error say a tls handshake is fail

[cerulean marlin]

As i told you they working and they connect to the server but just understand me

[jade wing]

give me the output of:

sudo iptables -L -v -n
sudo iptables -t nat -L -v -n

then try to flush your current iptables

sudo iptables -F
sudo iptables -t nat -F

then test curl again

[cerulean marlin]

I do it and i add new rules

[jade wing]

and let me know

[cerulean marlin]

But understand pleaaaaase

When i flush the iptables and add them again i got an error from curl say like the tls handshake is failed

I test tor is working good the ports everything is good buuut when i add the rules i got that error

U know it's like something block the packets when i add them

Iptable -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp or tcp --dport 53 --to-ports 9050 or 9053

Like when i add them and test with curl i got the error

I bind the traffic through a specific interface but nothing

[jade wing]

ok so now since you say you did all of that try:

Redirect OpenVPN traffic through Tor (TCP only):

sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner openvpn -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9040

Redirect DNS queries through Tor's DNS port:

sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9053

Allow Tor traffic to function:

sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner debian-tor -j ACCEPT

Accept loopback traffic:

sudo iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT

Then use tcpdump to verify tor is handling all traffic:

sudo tcpdump -i lo port 9040 or port 9053

Check Tor's logs for errors related to misrouted traffic:

sudo journalctl -u tor | tail -n 50

Simulate OpenVPN traffic through Tor with curl using the SOCKS5 proxy:

curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9050 https://check.torproject.org

Also, Confirm the TLS handshake is not blocked by Tor’s exit policies. Some Tor exits may block or throttle certain traffic.

If the issue remains unresolved, check:

Enable tracing to see how packets are processed:

sudo iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT -j TRACE

Review logs to find where the rules might be breaking:

sudo dmesg | grep TRACE

Use verbose output with curl to pinpoint the TLS handshake failure:

curl -v --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9050 https://example.com

Look for errors like:

"SSL handshake failed": Indicates an issue with the proxy handling.
"Connection reset by peer": Suggests a problem with Tor or the exit node.

If the issue is with Tor handling TLS traffic:

export http_proxy="socks5://127.0.0.1:9050"
curl -v https://example.com

If this works, ensure iptables rules correctly emulate SOCKS proxying by Tor.

If none of the above works, the problem could involve:

• Tor exit node policies: Try restarting Tor to switch exit nodes.

• Broken certificates: Ensure OpenVPN and the client use valid certificates.

• Tor restrictions: Use a .onion service for the OpenVPN server instead of relying on exit nodes.

Thats it from me, sorry for the chat spam, like I said good luck mang, I am going to go take my shower now. Let me know if you get it resolved.

[cerulean marlin]

I do all that🙂😭😭

I don't fucking know like where is the pb i swear

What is vim programming used for?

[opaque flax]

Vims just a text editor

[knotty pendant]

Huh

[jade wing]

Programming. Next question.

[opaque flax]

You can write your documents in it

If you want

[jolly aspen]

Driving fast, vim vim viiiim

[opaque flax]

Or you can program

Don’t forget the shebang

[knotty pendant]

What programs is it used for

[opaque flax]

It’s a text editor

You edit text with it

[knotty pendant]

You said it can be used for programming

[opaque flax]

Yes

How do you program?

You write text

[knotty pendant]

So its not a language?

[opaque flax]

It’s

A

Text editor

[knotty pendant]

Like vs code?

That thing

[jolly aspen]

Warming up in here

[knotty pendant]

I think we need to ban vim

[jade wing]

It’s written in a language it of itself is not a programming language. It can be used as an ide though

[high kindle]

Let me explain in monkey terms you put vim code code run code work no vim code don't work

[jolly aspen]

This is something we need to discuss with the pigeons

[jade wing]

I was gonna say I detect a bit of trolling lol

[glass nest]

binary - the Vim vs nano argument is eternal.

[jade wing]

Nano all day

[high kindle]

Nano ez

[opaque flax]

Ok but Vi

[knotty pendant]

Wait

[jade wing]

eMacs

[knotty pendant]

Is vim an ide for a certain language?

[silver sky]

5 minutes ago you didn't know what it was

[jolly aspen]

Notepad ++

[knotty pendant]

Someone said it can be used as an ide

[glass nest]

Yup, and some edgy person suggest eMacs. Then the 'notepad++' comes out.

[opaque flax]

Notepad ++ is unironically great

[knotty pendant]

Its to confusing

[jade wing]

If you ain’t using gentoo and enacs you’re a noob

[glass nest]

storm - a notepad file can be used as an IDE.

[silver sky]

Sublime Text superiority

[opaque flax]

I code in word

[high kindle]

What

[knotty pendant]

I code in vscode

[jade wing]

Just regular notepad for me too ez

[silver sky]

You heard what he said

https://tenor.com/view/ee-gif-25984691

[opaque flax]

More like he read it

[knotty pendant]

Massive

[glass nest]

When I learned to code, I think I used.. Eclipse IDE?

something like that

[silver sky]

Eclipse my beloved

[high kindle]

You know what else is massive

[jade wing]

Java eh? I’m sorry.

[knotty pendant]

Loowwww taper fade

[silver sky]

Not you?

[jade wing]

I’m in that… mode

[glass nest]

binary - eh. Was a decent inroad to Object oriented programming

[jade wing]

For sure I’m just joking I have love for Java

Though I much prefer functional over object oriented

[glass nest]

all languages have their uses

[jade wing]

They do indeed

Some are awesome and some were written by psychopaths like JavaScript

But it’s all good

[glass nest]

Except the meme ones, like brainf**k and whitespace. They're only good for making annoying CTFs 😄

[jade wing]

I have yet to come across a ctf that uses an esoteric language and I would just rage quit if I’m honest

Not worth the points

[glass nest]

Haha

Still, If you think about it - something like that is another layer of obfuscation.

and would make someone ragequit

[jade wing]

True but I could also dump it and just RE it instead

Probably be less stressful

[glass nest]

Yeah, but it's still an extra step.

[jade wing]

Indeed

[glass nest]

As I'm sure Hex will tell you, most (if not all) security measure are literally just time-sinks. If a bike has 3 locks on it, it might not be worth the effort.

[jade wing]

Use Pegasus as well with some brainfuck that’s also obfuscated

https://tenor.com/view/ponke-ponkesol-sheesh-sheesh-meme-jeez-gif-18325954655599604717

[glass nest]

The idea is to inconvenience someone to the point where they don't bother

[jade wing]

I mean if their intent is to RE and they have source it’s free real estate at that point

[glass nest]

and they have source.

I wonder how often that would happen in a system thats made to prevent stuff like that

[jade wing]

If they don’t then I would just be impressed someone made a functional program worth a dang in BF lol

[glass nest]

Muiri has used it in a couple of challenge rooms 😄

[knotty pendant]

Guys

[jade wing]

What a mad lad

[knotty pendant]

I need some help

[opaque flax]

Imagine trying maintain program written in brainf

[jade wing]

Is your vim failing to connect to Tors dns servers?

[knotty pendant]

No

[opaque flax]

I’ve honestly wondered how obfuscated code is written. Like is it written normally then obfuscated

[knotty pendant]

I want to do a penetration test on a website

[opaque flax]

Or just obfuscated from the start

[knotty pendant]

But there is no websites

[jade wing]

Both

[glass nest]

I imagine you'd do that after.

[knotty pendant]

That i can pen test

[opaque flax]

Yeah otherwise it’d be a pain in the ass

[glass nest]

Storms - Look up OWASP Top 10

[opaque flax]

Go pen test the owasp juice shop

[knotty pendant]

Whats that

[opaque flax]

Google is your friend

[glass nest]

Or head to hackerone and see what bug bounties are about

[jade wing]

You obfuscate by writing uncommented code and using variables like x,y,z and then you later can pass it through a script or program to further obfuscate it where it runs functions through and further scrambles them essentially

[knotty pendant]

Can i do it unethically🧐🥺🤔🥺🥺🙏🙏🙏

[opaque flax]

Or hacker101 and else. How to hack

[silver sky]

Have you tried hack this site?

[knotty pendant]

No

Am i allowed to

[jade wing]

Then you can use an application like Pegasus and when it executes it loads into protected virtual memory

[silver sky]

No I'm telling you to go and do something completely illegal on a website called hack this site

[glass nest]

HTS - Hackthissite. It's a site. Almost a spiritual ancestor to THM

[knotty pendant]

Illegally🥺🥺🙏🙏🧐

??

[opaque flax]

Interesting

[cerulean marlin]

I'm not a stupid to do that man😂😂

[jade wing]

I was a contributor there many moons ago

[silver sky]

I'm being sarcastic

[jade wing]

Back in the days of totse

[opaque flax]

Dudes begging for a ban

[glass nest]

Cmon stormz. you've been here long enough to know thats not cool

[jolly aspen]

It’s down for maintenance at the moment

[naive violet]

Why are you obsessed with doing illegal or unethical actions?

[knotty pendant]

Are you a mod
