electricsinge opened this issue · 1 comments

I am using Linux in a vm and i have installed BeEF(the browser exploitation framework) and BeEF is working fine, but only when I open the server in my vm. When I open it on my computer, the error

This site can’t be reached127.0.0.1 refused to connect.

shows up.

Thank you for reading this and I hope you will help me

Hi ElectricSinge:

The reason why you aren't able to connect to the ip '127.0.0.1' is because your host machine is unable to connect to the virtual machine. In order to resolve the the issue, you need to configure the virtual machine to allow connections from the host machine. Here are a few things you can do:

  1. Check the network settings of your virtual machine: Ensure that the virtual machine is using a network configuration that allows connections from the host machine. Typically, you'll need to set the network adapter to use the "Bridged" or "Host-only" mode, depending on your VM software.

2.Configure firewall settings: If you have a firewall enabled on your virtual machine or host machine, ensure that it allows incoming connections on the necessary ports for BeEF. By default, BeEF uses port 3000. Check your firewall settings to ensure that port 3000 is open and accessible

3.Verify BeEF server configuration: Double-check the configuration of the BeEF server within your virtual machine. Ensure that it's set to listen on all interfaces or on the specific IP address of the virtual machine.

If you have questions, please let me know.
