backtrack 3

[Lisa Kachold]

I personally love Knoppix, and master admins always have their own remastered STD with all the tools in their kits to allow not only all the great Knoppix Swiss Army type (forgive me O'Reilly) hacks, but also allow a nice autopsy forensics, or a nice honeypot, snort on a network, real quickly.

Mine runs from my 8GB USB key (but then I work on Dell, HP, or more recent bios boxen that allow such a boot)....
