More Firewall rules and VNC access to your Kali Linux
Goal
- First we are going to setup your Kali linux to allow SSH and VNC - your final goal is to show a VNC login from your Windows 10 Box.
Understand Firewall rules and how they are processed on pfSense
- Explore the metasploitable box and see what ports are open on it. This will involve a bit of work relating to nmap. Goal is to list all open ports and the common programs that run on those ports.
Lab Guide
There will be a lecture and demo of firewall rules.
First we are going to setup
- Install the openssh-server on kali (you know how, I shouldn't have to tell you)
- Make sure the service always starts on a reboot (ditto here, hint update-rc.d)
- Can you login over ssh with root? Ok, then add yourself
- Don't forget to add yourself to the right group (hint: usermod will do that for you).
- Now should be able to login from your Windows 10 machine (using putty, did you install that yet?) and sudo su|bash or whatever you want to use to become root! And you don't ever need that crazy IE for this either.
- Now that you are root, why not take this opportunity to update|upgrade your system.
- Let's install the "vino" vnc server.
