KaliLinux penetration testing system experience sharing

Thanks to the SuperMan shipping version: because it is based on Debian, then use Debian of the Chinese process, command: dpkg-reconfigurelocales select character encoding: en_US.UTF-8, zh_CN.GBK, zh_CN.UTF-8 select character: zh_CN.UTF-8 after setting the reboot Chinese input method: Command: apt-getinstal

Thanks for delivery by SuperMan

Versioning:

Because it is based on Debian, Debian's localization process is required,

Command:

Dpkg-reconfigure locales

Select character encoding: en_US.UTF-8, zh_CN.GBK, zh_CN.UTF-8

Select character: zh_CN.UTF-8

Reboot after setting

Chinese input method:

Command:

Apt-get install ibus-pinyin

After reboot, right-click the input method icon in the upper right corner-> preference-> Input method + Chinese-> Advanced (check that all programs share the same input method)

VPN:

After network-manager-pptp-gnome is installed, the Add button of the VPN menu of the network manager can be used.

Run Metasploit Framework:

According to the Kali Linux network service policy, Kali does not automatically start network services, including database services. therefore, to enable Metasploit to run in a database-supported manner, some necessary steps are required,

Start the PostgreSQL service of Kali

Metasploit uses PostgreSQL as a database, so you must first run it

Service PostgresqlStart

You can use the ss-ant output to check whether PostgreSQL is running, and then confirm that Port 5432 is in the listening status.

State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address: Port Peer Address: Port

LISTEN 0 128: 22 :::*

LISTEN 0 128 *: 22 *:*

LISTEN 0 128 127.0.0.1: 5432 *:*

LISTEN 0 128: 1: 5432 :::*

StartKaliOfMetasploitService:

As PostgreSQL starts and runs, we need to run the Metasploit service,

When you run the service for the first time, you will create an msf3 database user and a database named msf3. you will also run Metasploit RPC and the required WEB server.

Service metasploit start

InKaliRunMsfconsole:

Now PostgreSQL and Metasploit services are running. you can run msfconsole and then run the db_status command to check database connectivity.

Msfconsole
Msf> db_status
[*] Postgresql connected to msf3
Msf>

ConfigurationMetasploitRun as the system starts:

If you want PostgreSQL and Metasploit to run at startup, you can use the update-rc.d to enable the service

Update-rc.d postgresql enable
Metasploit enable update-rc.d
