A reverse connection is only going to work if the IP/PORT being connected to is accessible from the Internet. -----Original Message----- From: ninjatools at hush.com [mailto:ninjatools at hush.com] Sent: Sunday, October 17, 2004 9:48 AM To: framework at metasploit.com; bobismighty at gmail.com Subject: Re: [framework] virtual interfaces -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It can't connect to the host. Hence the error. We have yet developed any technologies to bypass these sort of situations. - -spoon On Sat, 16 Oct 2004 13:24:46 -0700 Bob the mighty one <bobismighty at gmail.com> wrote:
Ok well I will never live that last one down with the linux exploit against the windows box :), but I have another question that hopefully isnt so stupid. Ok well I was testing out some of the windows exploits on my internal network, against my windows computer. And I could only get it to work if I set up a virtual interface with a private IP for it
to connect back to. I dont know If that's normal, but the problem I had was when I was trying to exploit boxes outside of my network,whether it be a friend's box over the internet, or one of mine that I put outside the DMZ. I can't get the exploit to complete, even if I am
using the win32_bind payload instead of reverse. heres the output msf msrpc_dcom_ms03_026(win32_reverse) > exploit [*] Starting Reverse Handler. [*] Error creating socket: Connection failed: Operation now in progress
[*] Exiting Reverse Handler. Now remember, I am launching the exploit from a computer with a private
ip address, against one with a public address. But even when I launch from a public ip, i get the same.....Most likely in about 5 minutes something will click in my head and it will all make sense....and I will make an even bigger idiot of myself. But I figured its worth asking for help. thanks.
