Connecting to DNSCAT2.

[rschwass]

I am tying to connect to a dnscat2 server. I use the --security open setting, I assume that is correct, because I see no way to add a psk with powercat(yet!).

But im not getting a session. Any help on how to set this up would be great!

got a little farther. I set a dns domain on powercat and dnscat2 and it seems to connect.
I can enter a session now from dnscat back through but I have not commands or shell access.

what did you do to get it to work.... I use my own dns server and it connects but then get this error, the server is using open security so no encryption is forced
:

dnscat2> New window created: 1
Session 1 security: UNENCRYPTED
An error occurred (see window 1 for stacktrace): Duplicate SYN received!

You'll have to use "-e open --no-cache" on the server. The dnscat2 server has been updated many times since the DNS parts of this script were written, so there may be some issues. I did some quick tests and it's working on my end. You may have more success with an older version of dnscat2.
