Originally named Ethereal, in May 2006 the project was renamed Wireshark due to trademark issues. It is used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and communications protocol development, and education. If you are a Kali or regular Linux user but your primary box is a Windows machine, WSL2 can surprise you.Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer. This second functionality can be seen in Figure 4 where I have opened a port with netcat in Kali (1) and connected from Windows machine with powercat pointing directly to localhost (2).įigure 4: Port in Kali are available to Windows as localhost Every port of WSL2 is automatically exposed to the host machine through loopback, so if you open a port in your WSL2 you can access from Windows using localhost, as if the port is opened from a Windows running program.Transferring data between the two is really simple as is simple to transfer files from the two system from command line WSL2 is highly integrated in your windows environment you can access Kali file system Read/Write from share \WSL$ while Kali can access Windows file with /mnt/c.Now the usual question: which are the benefit of using WSL2 instead of using a real Virtual Machine? I can list at least two: The overall experience is really good, if you have a good internet connection you have a * Kali Linux running in minutes with absolutely no problem.
As an example here is a full screen session running Wireshark
The beauty of xrdp is that you are not enabled to resolution restriction you have usually on your Linux Hyper-V virtualized environment, so you can run at full screen with absolutely no problem.
