[ERROR] pentest: metasploit

[neto1920]

Dear after you have updated the pentet virtual machine, I noticed that the:

box.vm.provision "ansible" do |ansible|
       ansible.playbook = "pentest.yml"
     end

inside the vagrant file

so I insert and correct some errors that were occurring with the new pentet vm. Among all the errors that you correct such as:

• rvm and rvm path
• RVM GPG keys
• Create a new user in vm pentet with name pentet, among others. The only one I don't know how to solve is the localhost password: ssh 127.0.0.1 localhost

because it is returning the following error:

I've been dedicating a lot of time trying to solve the problems that are occurring with the vms, because it's the only environment that I can practice in your book, I believe others who have acquired your book too. It's been a few months since I got your book, but as I'm dealing with problems and I'm still at the beginning, the good thing is that I'm learning a lot about ruby haha'.

can i upload my updates here in git

Thank you very much for your attention!!

You can always submit a pull request and I will review the changes.

that said the latest update replaces the pentest VM with Kali Linux which should have all the tools from my book installed by default which means there is no need to run the Ansible playbook

[neto1920]

Vms don't get ping, don't listen. Even being on the same only-host network. How can I resolve this?

[R3dy]

Sounds like you’ve made a lot of changes.

I recommend running vagrant destroy on everything.

then one at a time run vagrant up goku, gohan etc…

If vagrant up fails with any VM try running vagrant provision immediately after on that same VM

the last update I pushed was working perfectly using Windows, virtualbox and WSL

if this doesn’t work for you then I’ll try to help but I can’t really do anything unless I know every detail about your setup.

have you changed the vagrant file? What host OS What version of vagrant and Ansible. Etc…

[neto1920]

Okay thanks a lot, I'll start from scratch again.

Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS

ansible --version
ansible [core 2.12.6]

vagrant -v
Vagrant 2.2.19

[R3dy]

Did you fix it?

[neto1920]

I did:

• re-install vagrant,
• del ~./vagrant.d
• git clone capsulecorp ...

but it doesn't receive ICMP ping on the pentet vm:

• vegeta
• trunks
• gohan
• raditz

in pentest, see

for ip in {1..254}; do ping -c 1 192.168.56.$ip -W 1 >> pingsweep.txt & done cat pingsweep.txt |grep "bytes from" | cut -d " " -f4 |cut -d ":" -f1 > targets.txt

cat targets.txt
192.168.56.100
192.168.56.140
192.168.56.200

192.168.56.200 <- pentest ip

[neto1920]

I added rule in VM where I didn't get ICMP ping:

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="ICMP Allow incoming V4 echo request" protocol=icmpv4:8,any dir=in action=allow

Now, i receive and fixed this error!! =)

TASK [Activate windows] ********************************************************

But I still have problem with Goku VM when I restart. inssue #64
