Temporary failure in name resolution after -c option #38

Closed windom3arle closed 4 years ago

windom3arle commented 4 years ago

I'm experiencing a dns issue when I try to stop kalitorify using the -c option: after that I cannot ping anything even If I restart the network card, always have a "Temporary failure in name resolution" . To solve that I must restart the machine (kali on vbox). Is anyone experiencing the same issue?

Hi @windom3arle, thanks for the report. This is a problem that often occurred in previous versions of kalitorify, but from the results of my tests I should have solved with the latest versions.

Please check if you have the latest version:

https://github.com/brainfucksec/kalitorify/releases

Otherwise it may depend on your particular network configuration, however I will run other tests to verify.

Thank You so much for yr.reply. I can confirm you it's the latest version given that I installed that the very same day I opened the issue... Anyway some days ago I've installed the "kali anonsurf" script too to give it a try and (dont' ask me why) the issue automagically solved: now I'm able to start/stop both (kali anonsurf or kalitorify) without experiencing any issues when i try to get back to clearnet. really don't know why...

Generally a "Name Resolution" error is due to the DNS settings on /etc/resolv.conf file, but I realized that in older versions, kalitorify when starting it did not immediately change theiptables, therefore it interfered with the settings of the file mentioned above. So, if the program was terminated, the /etc/resolv.conf file remained with the settings for the Tor proxy (with the value 127.0.0.1), and the operating system, returned to "clearnet", could not resolve the names because he did not have the DNS set (issue resolved in a recent update). Probably a similar problem has occurred and by starting one of the two scripts (kali-anonsurf / kalitorify) you have reset the network settings to default values and now everything works correctly (these two scripts are similar).

Anyway, I'm glad you solved the problem and thank you for the information.
