“Armitage can be accessed by navigating the Kali, all programs menu or by opening a terminal and entering the “armitage” command as shown below:
armitage
After entering the command into a terminal, you will be presented with a “connect…” dialog box To start Armitage, you can leave the default values and click the “connect” button.”
“After clicking the “connect” button, you will be presented with a dialog box which asks whether you want to start Metasploit. Select the default answer of “yes”. Next, you will be presented with a “java.net.ConnectionException: Connection refused” dialog box. Just leave this while Armitage and Metasploit get everything set up for you. Eventually you will be presented with a GUI”
“The main Armitage screen can be subdivided up into two areas. The top half consists of the GUI which allows you to interact with Metasploit, whereas the bottom half provides command line access for each interaction (as if you were utilizing the terminal rather than a GUI). You can use both panels to interact with the target. As you perform more actions utilizing the top half of Armitage, new corresponding tabs will automatically open for you on the bottom half. You can interact with the various tabs by clicking on them and typing in the displayed terminal.”
