Fast-Track Update Fix

[interstella]

Hi there,
found out that some entrys in the Fast-Track Update Menu got wrong location of SET, Gerix and metasploit in BackTrack 5 R1 Gnome x64.

My changes:

/pentest/exploits/fasttrack/bin/menu/updatemenu.py
line62:

subprocess.Popen("cd /usr/share/gerix-wifi-cracker-ng;svn update", shell=True).wait()

and
line 67:

subprocess.Popen("cd /pentest/exploits/set;svn update", shell=True).wait()

/pentest/exploits/fasttrack/config/fasttrack_config
line9:

METASPLOIT_PATH=/opt/framework/msf3

Don't know if any other version has same problem, but with these changes you will walk good after a default and clean install of bt5-gnome-x64.

Hey i'm running BT5 R1 Gnome too and had an issue with fast-track. I just did this fix but fast-track still doesn't work. I've edited all the files you listed here and still won't work.

what won't work?
do you can't just update or doesn't fast-track start?

Hi, i deleted both metasploit and fasttrack, then i re=installed metasplloit from its website, then i went to www.secmaniac.com and re-installed fasttrack following the instructions, it worked for me !

root@bt/pentest/exploits/fasttrack# ./fast-track.py -i

Hi,

BT5R3-gnome-32bits is also affected by this, and there's some missing fixes, so here's what I added:

1) in /pentest/exploits/fasttrack/bin/ftsrc/updatemeta.py line 23, replace 'metaupdate=os.system("svn update %s" % (metapath))' with 'metaupdate=os.system("msfupdate")' so that you'll be able to update metasploit from fasttrack.

2) in /pentest/exploits/fasttrack/bin/menu/updatemenu.py
Be sure there's a # in front of line 61, or correct this as follows: subprocess.Popen("cd /usr/share;svn co svn://devel.offensive-security.com/gerix-ng gerix-wifi-cracker-ng", shell=True).wait()

3) the exploit-db svn url is not reachable from here, so I get failures... Need to find why ( maybe url changed or something else ? )

Regards,

Gled
