Lab 1 0: Import Kali Linux - Hsanokklis/2023-2024-Tech-journal GitHub Wiki

  • Open VMWare Workstation
  • Click on Open a Virtual Machine
  • Navigate to X:\VMs\S23\sys140 sec110\kali.f22
  • Give the VM a name of type: username.kali (for me this would be dginter.kali)
  • Log in using champuser, Ch@mpl@1n!22 as the username and password.
  • CHANGE the password (start the terminal and use the passwd command). It is a security issue for their to be a will known username password on running systems. Sometimes professors are bored while students are doing a lab and they have nothing better to do than to backdoor into a system and “do stuff”.
  • If you have a portable drive you may want to export the VM, or save snapshots to your portable drive.
