How to install tools from Kali repositories

[Halnex]

This will let you install all of the tools that are in Kali.

Kali is based on Debian.
BackBox is based on Ubuntu which is based on Debian.
So theoretically everything should work.

1. Add Kali's repositories to your sources, either by going to  All Settings >> System >> Software & Updates >> Other Software and adding them manually or by executing these commands from the terminal:

Code Select Expand

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib'
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib'
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free'
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free'
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-bleeding-edge main'


2. Import Kali's authentication key

Code Select Expand

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys ED444FF07D8D0BF6

3. Update

Code Select Expand

sudo apt-get update

4. Enjoy!

I've installed and tested dnsmap and burpsuite successfully.

PS: make sure you disable Kali's repositories after you're done installing as to not create any future conflict.

Hi Halnex,
mixing repository isn't a good choice ever, you can falling in some tools that need dependence with different version provided by bbox system. That could make your OS unstable and repair it could not be so simple.
So, if you can't install needed tools by hand adding repo from other distro might help you, but remember that you can damage your installations!

ps: also remember that mod, mantainers and raffaele could get mad if you add kaly's repo.... lol ;)

I understand that completely and I agree.

I only downloaded dnsmap and burpsuite, they didn't have any dependencies to install or remove.
And I immediately disabled Kali's repos after installing.

It's just a way to quickly install missing tools.

I know that you are able to manage this situation but people who read your post must know and understand that follow your instruction    in theory may be dangerous!

See ya man! =)

I didn't reacted before but, this is post for personal blog not our forum. Will be removed, sorry.

No need to add kali repos. they have released their tools so you can add anything you want, assuming that there are no dependencies

Why do not you add these tools (vega - dnsmap - burpsuite .........etc ) to repository backbox

[ZEROF]

Answer is kind lame, but, you can install what you need. We add new tools when time comes and when we don't have already tools that can do same things etc ...

I don't know why I can't update anything that your said above.



( I use Back Box in Virtualbox )

We don't give support for non BackBox repository, this topic is going to be locked.

You issue is that you have one apt-get ... already running, check with ps aux, or if you don't know what you need to do, just reboot your system and try again.

Topic locked.
