For those of you who are not familiar with BackTrack, here's a brief description directly from the project's web site, http://www.remote-exploit.org/:

BackTrack is the result of merging the two innovative penetration testing live linux distributions Auditor and Whax. Backtrack provides a thorough pentesting environment which is bootable via CD, USB or the network (PXE). The tools are arranged in an intuitive manner, and cover most of the attack vectors. Complex environments are simplified, such as automatic Kismet configuration, one click Snort setup, precompiled Metasploit lorcon modules, etc. BackTrack has been dubbed the #1 Security Live CD by Insecure.org, and #32 overall.

Being the "Ethical" Hacker Network, it is our sincere hope that you use this distro for good. Use caution when using the tools contained in this distro and be absolutely certain to use it either in a virtual lab or in an environment in which you have written permission to do so.

Now get out there and learn to hack!
