Are these two issues the same, or how are they distinct if not?

Having installed Kali Linux and done the following:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python-pip python3-pip
python3 -m pip install pyngrok
ngrok http 80

Everything works fine. A tunnel is opened and I am able to connect to it externally.

Note that Kali Linux appears to install pip bins in the user's home directory, which is not on the PATH by default (it tells you this after you install anything from pip). You may have to do export PATH=$PATH:/home/kali/.local/bin, for example, before any Python binaries are available on your path.

To close the loop on this, similar to the issue found here, the issue is running ngrok as sudo. This is not always an issue (I have no issues with it on OS X or even my instance of Kali Linux), but depending on your system's setup, if no config file is given, ngrok (not pyngrok) cannot determine where it should safely store the config file. To get around this, just tell it a location you trust, per the documentation:

sudo ngrok http -config=/opt/ngrok/conf/ngrok.yml 8000

Generally, however, the real answer here is that you shouldn't need to be running ngrok as sudo.
