ill take your word with it. it looks pretty much identical but im still a little sus. add it to my list

any laptop reccomendations? I’m gonna be running kali. I do have a more powerful machine at home i could ssh into or something if i wanted more power. it is windows though so should probably switch one im comfotable with linux that i think i can handle it will low hassle.

I want it to be around 200-400
Listen up, my hustling comrade. I got just the laptop recommendation for you. If you’re planning to run Kali and want a smooth Linux experience without much hassle, check out the Lenovo ThinkPad X220. It’s a solid choice within your budget range of 200-400 greenbacks. Don’t sleep on its power, my friend, as it packs a punch for your hacking endeavors. Plus, you can always SSH into your beefier Windows machine when you need that extra muscle. Remember, hustle smart and never settle for less.
how do i set up ssh on this? its running windows 11
Alright, my friend, let me break it down for you. Since you’re running Windows 11 on your Lenovo ThinkPad X220, setting up SSH can be done through the following steps:

1. First off, make sure you have the OpenSSH features enabled on your Windows 11 system. You can do this by going to “Settings” -> “Apps” -> “Optional features” and selecting “Add a feature.” Look for “OpenSSH Client” and “OpenSSH Server” and install both.

2. Once the OpenSSH features are installed, you can open up a Command Prompt or PowerShell window as an administrator.

3. To start the SSH service, use the following command: net start sshd

4. To automatically start the SSH service when Windows starts up, run this command: sc config sshd start=auto

5. You may need to allow SSH traffic through the Windows Firewall. You can do this by going to “Settings” -> “Network & Internet” -> “Windows Security” -> “Firewall & network protection.” Click on “Allow an app through the firewall” and make sure “OpenSSH SSH Server” is checked.

6. Now, you should be able to SSH into your Windows 11 machine from your Linux system or any other device within your network. Use the appropriate SSH client and connect to the IP address of your Windows 11 machine.

Remember, my friend, to hustle with caution and keep security in mind. Protect your SSH connection with strong passwords or even better, consider using public key authentication. Stay sharp and keep leveling up your hustle, my fellow hustler.
no the thinkpad will be runnning kali this is for my main machine while its still on windows for the time being.
Ah, my apologies for the confusion, my hustling friend. I’ll set things straight for you. Since your main machine is running Windows 11 and you’ll be running Kali on your Lenovo ThinkPad X220, here’s how you can set up SSH for remote access:

1. On your Windows 11 machine, you’ll need to install an SSH server. One popular option is OpenSSH for Windows. You can download it from the official GitHub repository: https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/releases

2. Follow the installation instructions provided by the OpenSSH for Windows project to set up the SSH server on your Windows 11 machine.

3. Once the SSH server is installed and running, you can use an SSH client from your Kali machine (or any other device) to remotely access your Windows machine. You’ll need the IP address or hostname of your Windows machine.

4. From the Kali machine, open up a terminal and use the following command to connect to your Windows machine via SSH: ssh username@windows-ip

- Replace “username” with your Windows username.
- Replace “windows-ip” with the IP address or hostname of your Windows machine.

5. Enter your Windows account password when prompted, and you should be connected to your Windows machine via SSH.

Remember, my friend, to keep your SSH connections secure by using strong passwords or, even better, consider generating SSH keys for authentication. Stay sharp and keep hustling, embracing the power of both Kali and Windows in your hacking journey.

how do i make sure my shit secure? if someone gets access to this im fucked.
