ExploitDB / Searchsploit

On *nix systems, all you really need is either “CoreUtils” or “utilities” (e.g. bash, sed, grep, awk, etc.), as well as git. These are installed by default on many different Linux distributions, including OS X/macOS.

In ~/git: git clone https://github.com/offensive-security/exploitdb.git

To run: ~/git/searchsploit [search term]

Fedora

1. (RHEL-based) sudo dnf upgrade

2. (not sure) Install spice-vdagent on guest OS?
3. systemctl start spice-vdagent on host (Fedora)
   1. Enable it?

Espanso

1. Follow Wayland instructions and compile from source
   1. copy to usual git folder in home directory (~/git)
   2. mv compiled binary to /usr/local/bin per instructions; consider a link in the future?
   3. cp -r ~/git/dotfiles/espanso ~/.config

Vim

1. sudo dnf install vim-enhanced as it comes with vi-minimal initially
2. cp ~/git/dotfiles/vimrc ~/.vimrc

VirtualBox

1. Disable Secure Boot before installing rpm downloaded from official site, otherwise looks like you have to manually install everything

Starship

1. To update run curl -sS https://starship.rs/install.sh | sh

Ubuntu

Update System

1. (Debian-based) sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
2. Install essential tools sudo apt-get install build-essential curl file git
3. Set up zsh sudo dnf install zsh
   1. Install oh-my-zsh same as ubuntu
   2. Install sudo dnf install powerline powerline-fonts
   3. Clone autosuggestions/syntax highlighting per Ubuntu instructions as well

Set up ufw (while still as root, otherwise add sudo) on servers

1. ufw app list to see what's available
2. ufw allow OpenSSH for initial set-up, although we'll change this port later and need to update the firewall rules at that time
3. ufw enable and ufw status to make sure it's working
4. Log out and back in to make sure you haven't borked something and blocked yourself

Add Non-Root User

1. adduser eli
2. give new user sudo permissions
   1. (option 1) visudo and add eli ALL=(ALL) ALL
   2. (option 2 - Ubuntu/Debian) apt-get install sudo && usermod -a -G sudo eli

Change to new user

Configure Vim

1. sudo apt install vim
2. vim --version. If it's neovim, skip to step 4. Otherwise follow step 3.

   1. (optional) Remap CTRL key for keyboard to CAPS LOCK
   2. sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool
   3. open tweak tool
   4. Keyboard & Mouse > Additional Layout Options > Caps Lock Behavior > select Caps Lock is also a Ctrl
4. (option 2) Update $HOME/.config/nvim/init.vim to match (or include) .vimrc for Neovim, which seems to be a default installation in Parrot OS
   1. More simply, just add source ~/.vimrc to this init.vim file after following previous instructions
   2. You can check which files are being checked upon opening vim via :scriptnames. If you don't see ~/.vimrc there's a good chance you're using neovim.
