Backtrack 2 is the last edition of a very famous and widely used penetration testing Linux Live Distro. We will try to do walkthrough of every single (or as much as possible) tools that comes with backtrack 2. Since this is a very large project, and the distro itself contains approximately 255 unique tools. It will almost impossible to post it as one HOWTO. So we will try to do One post at a time.

But first Lets give you a look and feel about Backtrack 2:

Since Backtrack 2 is live distro and not an installed system it comes with default username to “root” and password of “toor”.

Here is how Backtrack looks like after you boot it from the CD:

You have a choice of using either KDE or Fluxbox. In most of our HowTo’s we will be using KDE. As I am more familiar with it. I would have preferred Gnome but backtrack doesn’t come with it.

To use KDE type “Startx”, to use Fluxbox type in “flux”, very simple.

This is how Backtrack KDE window manager looks like with some of it’s tools.

Here is list of Backtrack tools available according to it’s list available in backtrack wiki page: http://backtrack.offensive-security.com/index.php?title=Tools
