PXE Boot Exploit Server
Description
This module provides a PXE server, running a DHCP and TFTP server. The default configuration loads a linux kernel and initrd into memory that reads the hard drive; placing a payload to install metsvc, disable the firewall, and add a new user metasploit on any Windows partition seen, and add a uid 0 user with username and password metasploit to any linux partition seen. The windows user will have the password p@SSw0rd!123456 (in case of complexity requirements) and will be added to the administrators group. Note: the displayed IP address of a target is the address this DHCP server handed out, not the "normal" IP address the host uses.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
