➡️Post Installation Setup

Setting up Tab Completion

Currently, we use argcomplete to automatically do tab completion through argparse.

Once you've installed nxc globally, do the following:

Installing with pipx is recommended for global availability

sudo apt install python3-argcomplete

# For Bash
register-python-argcomplete nxc >> ~/.bashrc

# For Zsh
register-python-argcomplete nxc >> ~/.zshrc

Open a new shell and you are ready to go:

NetExec
netexec
nxc

Configuring NetExec's Homefolder

NetExec will create a folder to which the nxc.conf configuration file and all other data created/extracted during day-to-day use are written. The default folder that will be created is ~/.nxc. If you would like to change the destination folder set the environment variable NXC_PATH to the target folder.

Configuring NetExec's Bloodhound Ingestor

Netexec's default Bloodhound ingestor is CE. If you want Netexec to ingest data for legacy:

1. Open nxc.conf

2. Set bh_enabled = True

3. Set bhce_enabled = False

4. Save and you're ready to roll

Bash one liners:

1. For enabling legacy, disabling CE: sed -Ei 's/^[[:space:]]*bh_enabled[[:space:]]*=.*/bh_enabled = True/; s/^[[:space:]]*bhce_enabled[[:space:]]*=.*/bhce_enabled = False/' ~/.nxc/nxc.conf

2. For enabling CE, disabling legacy: sed -Ei 's/^[[:space:]]*bh_enabled[[:space:]]*=.*/bh_enabled = False/; s/^[[:space:]]*bhce_enabled[[:space:]]*=.*/bhce_enabled = True/' ~/.nxc/nxc.conf
