Open alichtman opened 5 years ago

Load the rootkit at startup, enabling persistence. Basically, follow this tutorial: https://askubuntu.com/a/307375

~For some reason, the VM throws a "failed to load kernel modules" error when rebooted. Have not yet figured out how to get more information~

STATUS: Have rootkit persistence working. Settings do not persist, and file permissions seem to be fucked on the symlinked files. Have not debugged past this.

Copied from random tutorials on the internet.

It is important to note that kernel parameters that are set using sysctl will only be enforced during the current session and will disappear when the system is rebooted.

To set these values permanently, edit /etc/sysctl.conf with the desired values.

This is recommended way. First open /etc/sysctl.conf file, enter: $ vim /etc/sysctl.conf

Now add value: variable = value

Close and save the changes. Type the following command to load sysctl settings from the file /etc/sysctl.conf file: $ sysctl -p

OR

$ sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf

The last method will load settings permanently at boot time from /etc/sysctl.conf file. Read man page of sysctl for information: $ man sysctl
