@dev-fortress I can't seem to recreate this on Kali through apt or otherwise.
Can you try to see if the same thing happens if you run through pipx or poetry? I have a feeling this might be a dependency conflict thing somehow

[dev-fortress]

Hi @Adamkadaban Same error when installing NetExec with pip

[NeffIsBack]

When you created the new module, did you set the protocol parameter of the module to ssh?

[dev-fortress]

Hi @NeffIsBack , yes I do

Some things are comments because I'm trying to figure out if it's something i did wrong or something else

[NeffIsBack]

Ok👍have to test it myself later

[NeffIsBack]

Fixed in #447
