vailixi Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I have this armhf XFCE Kali build. It's just pretty buggy. I have to log in to wireless every time I boot the thing up. I want to have it headless and just SSH of VNC into it. But I can't do that because the wireless just doesn't want to log in automatically. It's on an OrangePi Plus which I thought was going to really cool because has a SATA port and onboard EMMC but it's not super cool because the thing is not well supported.I don't really know if this is an XFCE issue or a Linux issue or a build issue. I thinking it's a build issue. I don't want to spend 4 hours on a live build but I probably will. I'm still in denial. Everything works perfectly.

What directory are these connections stored in? I think this is part of the issue. I will save the network connection then it will get deleted. Also it would be pretty sweet to exploit the clients and steal the wifis. It's a lot less work than cracking the wifis. network={ ssid="myqwest3957" scan_ssid=1 psk="somepassword" proto=RSN key_mgmt=WPA-PSK pairwise=CCMP TKIP group=TKIP } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vailixi Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 OK I did all of that. It's still not working. I've spent like 7 hours troubleshooting this thing and about 0 hours actually using it. Plus the cost of the the machine. Net loss. It's time to just take this thing out and shoot it. At least I'll get some enjoyment out that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i8igmac Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I feel your pain... are you using your eth port to configure the thing? disable all services related to networking... are you trying to connect to wpa network? this part can be tricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it just to be a smart ass more than anything. I figure I'll put up a demolition compilation video for keks. First I need to break a few more things. Wait there's an idea for a Youtube channel. Just breaking shit all the time. Edited November 3, 2015 by vailixi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vailixi Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 Breaking things is therapeutic. It's true, what I did to that Orange Pi Plus was complete barbaric. It felt great. I'm a savage. I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
