LOTS THANKS

here your backtrack

I do like back track because it is a strong sys.

very good

I'd really like to say something positive about this so called distribution. Unfortunately I've been waiting since the dreaded Ubuntu switch piloted during BT4 beta.

Regrettably the entire "distribution" concept is a bit of a joke. The highly praised BT5 for example GNOME variant is actually a fairly bad attempt at a work up from a minimal 10.04 iso.

This was in fact being done more professionally by users let alone funded teams, during the BT4 beta period by adding the BT repos in Ubuntu. Asking for support in this regard on the forum was constantly met with hostility although this seems to be directly what the BT team have "achieved" in BT5.

Ubuntu maintains a distinctive concept; a secure and easy to use linux platform, backed by a very knowledgeable and gentle supportive forum.

BT5 is not a distro. It's an awkward and hashed derivative of Ubuntu which breaks all the original concepts. The installation provides root only usage crafted around the idea that the majority of the tools require root privileges.

Such a weak argument could easily be adapted to avoid root usage if the so called developers could even get to grips with simple Linux concepts like visudo.

I'm sure my review might get slammed by the skiddies drunk on the menu and click options BT5 provides. For those serious about Linux and the functions of this so called OS, do yourself a favor use a truly configurable platform like Gentoo or Arch and build the tools yourself.

amazing.................. love it.....

Hats of and a big thank you to the BackTrack creators :) This is definately the Fun,exciting,safe and very educational operating system i have ever had the pleasure of using.
The tools are so well thought out,put together and integrated that other operating systems will have to go a long way just to match up to this awesomeness and Legend that is called BackTrack.
P.S in 52 days - 12 hours - 15 minutes from the time of this post,,
BackTrack 5 Release - will be upon us :)
Once again thank you for the experience.

Backtrack 4 can be live installed, or full installed to a hard disk in a single or multi-boot set up. On my asus eeepc1005ha netbook i am booting win7 ultimate, ubuntu 10.4, mint 9, and BT4. You can also multi-boot from a usb pendrive, using MultiBootISOs-USB-Creator.exe, which can be downloaded from pendrivelinux.

The development team have taken huge conceptual leaps with BackTrack 4, and have some new and exciting features. The most significant of these changes, Backtrack is now based on Debian core packages and utilizing the Ubuntu software repositories.

Some new improvements and changes:

* Kernel 2.6.28.1 with better hardware support.
* Native support for Pico e12 and e16 cards is now fully functional, making BackTrack the first pentesting distro to fully utilize these awesome tiny machines
* Support for PXE Boot - Boot BackTrack over the network with PXE supported cards
* SAINT EXPLOIT - kindly provided by SAINT corporation for our users with a limited number of free IPs.
* MALTEGO - The guys over at Paterva did outstanding work with Maltego 2.0.2 - which is featured in BackTrack as a community edition.
* The latest mac80211 wireless injection pacthes are applied, with several custom patches for rtl8187 injection speed enhancements. Wireless injection support has never been so broad and functional
* Unicornscan - Fully functional with postgress logging support and a web front end
* RFID support
* Pyrit CUDA support
* New and updated tools

The distribution features a slick GUI interface as well as various categories of security testing tools.

With the Backtrack 4 tools, you can run a whole slew of security tests against Windows (and other) systems. Start by running ping sweeps to find live hosts and then perform system enumeration to see what Windows services are available to prying eyes. You can then perform operating system vulnerability scanning and even exploit certain vulnerabilities for the ultimate in penetration testing. If you're running IIS and SQL Server, use Backtrack 4 to hone in on Web and database vulnerabilities.

There are a ton of tools for testing the security of both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. There are plenty of data analysis and forensics tools included as well. It even has several built-in services such as an HTTP server, a VNC server, a TFTP server and even the SNORT IDS -- all of which come in handy when testing for security vulnerabilities on your network.

BackTrack consists of more than 300 different tools which are logically structured according to the work flow of security professionals. This structure allows even newcomers to find the related tools to a certain task to be accomplished.
No other commercial or freely available analysis platform offers an equivalent level of usability with automatic configuration and focus on penetration testing.

BackTrack's functionality further increases with the arrangement of each tool in categories.

My apology. It is bootable, it was me who missed the boot option when I did the cold boot. Keep it coming and free...

Unfortunately the CD is NOT bootable..Have to boot from DOS first then run the batch file. DOS is NOT what we want to use anymore these days... :(

Because all the tools are for free.

all the tools in one package!
wonder why it is free.
