Welcome to the section on using Kelly Linux for effective network scanning.
Now we have all the introductory stuff out of the way.
Let's get started.
In this video we're going to head to w w w.
Dot org and download Khaleel Linux.
Then we're going to install Cadillac's as a virtual machine and install VM Ware tools which will enhance
the performance of our Kalli install.
Finally we're going to make some initial modifications to the calling environment to make our experience
more comfortable and secure.
Now before we get started make sure you're ready to install Kallie in a configuration that meets the
minimum installation requirements.
That includes a minimum of 20 gigabytes of disk space.
I'm going to configure my VM with at least 40.
We also need a minimum of one gigabyte of RAM but I'm going to use at least two gigabytes and we need
to make sure our system can boot from a CD or USP drive.
So to get started let's head to w w w dot Kelly dot org.
Then we'll click on downloads and choose download Kelly Linux.
And here we're going to see all the various downloads for Kalli depending on which system architecture
you're running.
Since I'm going to run this on VM where fusion for the Mac I'm going to go under the Kalli Linux 64
bit VM where VM listing and click the offensive security download page and from that page I'm going
to click the Cali Linux 64 bit VM link and once I hit that link my download is going to begin in the
background.
And now I'm going to check my downloads folder to ensure the file is ready to go which it looks like
it is.
So now I can fire up my VM where fusion software and begin the process of importing this VM and booting
it up as a live system.
With my VM where fusion software open I'm going to click on the plus button and then click Import
click Choose file here and then point to the Kelly overweigh file that we just downloaded click open
and then click continue.
Now here you will be asked to provide a name for the file.
You can call it whatever you want.
And once you've chosen your title just click on Save
and now just to wait a couple of minutes while the virtual machine is imported.
When the import is done click customize settings as there is a few setting changes we may want to make
first click.
Network adapter.
There are several different network adapter configurations we can use for our virtual machine.
One is to share with my Mac which is the default and all that really means is that the calling VM is
going to share my IP as it accesses the local network and Internet.
Personally I like to use the bridged networking option which means my calling VM will grab an IP out
of the local DHP scope on my network and operate like a true independent host on the network.
So I'm going to click the Wi-Fi selection here because my Mac is using Wi-Fi to connect to my network.
All right I'm going to click show all and let's just take a quick peek at processors and memory just
to make sure that our VM is configured for at least the minimum hardware requirements which it looks
like it is.
So I think we can close this window and click the big play button to launch our first boot of this new
Kelly.
And if you get this warning here about upgrading the virtual machine just go ahead and click upgrade
and then the boot process should continue.
All right while this is booting Let's take it full screen just to make it a little bit easier on the
eyes and then for our initial log in we're going to use username of root and password of tour t o o
r if all went according to plan you should be looking at the desktop for your freshly built coffee machine.
Now one of the first things we'll want to do is install VM where tools which improve the performance
and overall management of our virtual machine I'm running Kalli Linux 20:17 3 and it looks like the
installation of VM Ware tools must have happened automatically during the install because under my virtual
machine menu here I only have the option for re-installing the tools.
If they're not installed in your virtual machine look for an option to do so in the menus of your virtual
machine software.
Next we need to change our root password from the default.
You might have noticed we logged in with the extremely weak password of all lowercase t o o r.
So let's change that to something stronger.
Open up the terminal in the left hand side menu of your screen and type the password command which is
P A S S W D when prompted.
Provide a long strong password with a mix of upper and lower case numbers and symbols.
I recommend the password of at least 14 characters.
But then again I wear a tinfoil hat most of the day to you also may have noticed that when we downloaded
Cali the Kelly dot org web page warned us that our machine might have pre-generated S-sh keys to change
those keys from the default will issue the following commands what these commands do is generate a fresh
set of unique keys for our system so that we reduce the chance of a man in the middle attack for even
better security.
You could install your public S-sh key on your system.
However because I'm only going to be connecting to this system from my local network I'm just going
to refresh the S-sh keys in a later module will also be adding a non-root user for day to day operations
on our system
by default.
Calling comes with a rather aggressive screensaver that locks that screen with your password.
After just a few minutes again because I'm using this system as a VM on my local network I'm going to
disable the screensaver so I don't have to keep punching in the password.
Over and over again to do that.
Let's go into Kalli settings
cook into the power options and under a blank screen choose never and then in the privacy settings under
screen lock set automatic screen lock to off OK.
The final initial tweak I want to do is set up a shared folder between the Kelly VM and my Mac.
This is handy if you have to sneakernet files between the two systems and don't want to have to fiddle
with setting up file shares or anything like that.
So nvm where fusion I'm going to head to the virtual machine menu and choose settings and then sharing
here I'm going to click Enable shared folders click the plus button and pick a folder on my Mac.
Now to actually mount that folder.
I'm going to double click this handy dandy script that comes preloaded right on our desktop.
Now initially when you run this file it won't look like anything happened.
But if you click the files button on the left hand side of the screen type of slash forward slash and
then enter the path of M and T slash h g f s You'll see the folder name that you shared with your host
machine.
And now any files and folders you stick in this folder will be shared between your host machine and
your Kelly VM which is quite handy.
In the next video we'll use system commands to validate connectivity with both our local network as
well as the Internet to make sure our network settings are configured properly.
