6 Things to Do After Installing Kali Linux


I have made a small list of things that I always preform after installing the fresh copy of Kali Linux, also see How to install Kali Linux in virtual machine.

1. Fix Default Repository


The simplest way is to edit it is to open up the Terminal and enter the following command;

leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list

and then remove existing config with the following lines;

## Regular repositories
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
## Source repositories
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib
deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free

2. Update, Upgrade, Dist-Upgrade


Clean, update, upgrade and dist-upgrade your Kali installation.

Enter the following command in the terminal;

apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y

3. Fix PulseAudio Warning


Enter the following command in the terminal;

leafpad /etc/default/pulseaudio

Now in the config file that pops up, find;

PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=0

and replace 0 with 1

PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START=1

Where, 0 = don’t start in system mode, 1 = start in system mode.

4. Install TOR


Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security. This guide guides your through installing tor in Kali Linux. Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world It prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location.

Tor is available in Kali repository, to install it directly from the repository open your Terminal and type the following;

apt-get install tor

After that enable TOR service from command line;

service tor start

Now browse with confident by using proxychains and tor;

proxychains iceweasel


5. Install Filezilla FTP Client


No Linux installation is complete with a proper fully fledged FTP Client. Filezilla is the best out there, so install Filezilla using the following command;

apt-get install filezilla filezilla-common -y

6. Install File Roller - Archive Manager


Kali Linux lacks a proper GUI archive manager. Install it Archive Manager (File Roller) using the following command;

apt-get install unrar unace rar unrar p7zip zip unzip p7zip-full p7zip-rar file-roller -y
