V6 nano -- how do I point to a local DNS server?


Recommended Posts

HI folks

I did the "pineapple" workshop at AusCERT conference back in May and finally got around to getting the nano deployed at work.  I actually brought the full pack with the other toys so I need to set up the nano from scratch.  Pleased to report that the workshop notes still work fine -- the only thing I had problems with was getting the routing working properly ( there was no default route shown in the network config).   I 'fixed this by the time honoured method of unplugging it and putting it back in ;) all looks good now.

remnux@remnux:~$ ifconfig

But attemts to load new modules fail.  I am betting that the problem is that the nano is trying to use Google DNS which won't work from inside our network but I can see where to change it.

Your Routing table looks correct but for network that should be the gateway for the network you are connected to not the pineapple itself.  so for mine it was

internet: eth0=192.168.0.100  (my pc)

Pineapple:  eth1=172.16.42.42 (pineapple)

Network: 192.168.0.1  (my network gateway or router)

Thanks for the prompt response!

The network was set by wp6.sh and it picked the correct gateway address?? hmmm...

Ah! it is hard coded in the script and is not actually used in any configuration.  It is just printed.

Lets see what tcpdump on the external interface of my laptop says when I try to get modules:

listening on en3, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes

The traffic is hitting the LAN but won't make it out to the Internet.

So it's back to my initial question:  How do I point the WP to a local DNS (and NTP) server?  We block both at the border.

I pulled the version from GitHub -- which is different from the one we used in the workshop and does not offer a menu.

It just asks you if you want to use the saved setting and if you say no you get prompted:

Connect using saved settings     [Y/n]? n

Select WiFi Pineapple Interface:
    0)    docker0    172.17.42.1
    1)    eth0    192.168.20.130
    2)    eth1    172.16.42.42
> 2

Select Internet Interface:
    0)    docker0    172.17.42.1
    1)    eth0    192.168.20.130
    2)    eth1    172.16.42.42
> 1

Choose Internet Gateway:
    0)    192.168.20.2

Keep default IP settings?        [Y/n]? 
Save settings for next session   [Y/n]? 

My point is that the pineapple is getting packets out of the VM and on to the LAN do the local routing is working fine.  The problem is that those DNS packets will be dropped by our firewall so I need to tell it to use our local DNS.

ssh root@172.16.42.1  and enter the password you set for the pineapple when you set it up  also, if you wget http://wifipineapple.com/wp6.sh it might be a newer version which has those options, i think, i havent downloaded it lately so it could have been updated again idk

dopey question ;)

How do I get a shell?  I tried ssh but got connection refused.

remnux@remnux:~$ ssh 172.16.42.42
ssh: connect to host 172.16.42.42 port 22: Connection refused
 

172.16.42.42 is the IP Address you have on the NANOs network. 172.16.42.1 is the NANOs IP.
