Love this. Lots of good resources. I have fallen in love with linux, and have gotten fed up with switching between win/linux at school (network is NOVELL running under VISTA arrg!) so I worked out all the settings to get linux connected. Now the asst Dean wants me to change my major…lol. I’m 42 and so far self taught (trial and error on my older Dell/guinea pig), and intend to use whatever “Fu” I develop in the computer forensics and White Hat hacking areas.

Any other suggestions on resources are appreciated.

Thanks again.

1. You guys honestly are begging to learn something to complex for your mind. You(In general) for one have terrible English, I must recommend to you that you should read and English book or spend some “extra” time with your teacher. (YOU REQUIRE ENGLISH SKILLS TO PROGRAM / CODE.
2. Don’t use some hyped name like 1337Warrior or Ex|le hackzorz cause that does nothing, keep it simple or just write some initials. Every single time I see one of these names, I just laugh and any hackers that actually have viewed others with these names just gives them a potential target to laugh at and possible crucify.
3. Learn the basic reasoning behind hacking, ask yourself these 3 questions…:
i) Do I really want to go through all this to possibly get myself in trouble?
ii) In the end, will this grant me some stronger income for my family/myself?
iii) Was I born and raised to create and move with possible evil?

4. Think before you act. Do not go posting random videos of your amazing “h4cKz0r” skills showing you cracking into your neighbors WI-FI, you show nothing but weakness.

5. Reward yourself for small accomplishments to gain some self-satisfaction and motivation. Do not good bragging to others how you are now a hacker.

6. Learn from your mistakes and dont be A-hole. Meaning, do not go setting up a keylogger for your best friend to sign in on to his email and then fucking him over, you get it right back in the ass at some time.

7. Get good rest and stay in good health. Dont be a tool, go get some fresh air once and a while, you do not need to be a groundhog.

8. Don’t start big, start little, then grow. Meaning, do not go hacking into Valve’s© servers and getting yourself a game, your not ready and you do not have the experience / proper skills to cover your ass up.

9. Wish yourself luck cause your going to need it, stay focused.

10. If your in high school or even elementary school, get the F*** back and focus your A** on school, without it you will never have a chance! Education or nothing, dont make that mistake. Wait till you have more street-smarts…

so I’ve read through this article twice now, and I’m at the point of looking at the different books being names. You edited it and said that you crossed two that were out of date, well the out of date replacements look like they might be out of date also because “Hacker’s Exposed” has a fourth edition from 2003 and thats the latest. This does not seem to include any of the new OS coming out, but my question is-are they even needed?

Sigh… reading this article is what’s wrong with the Linux community… I know how to hack because I use Linux… wrong! Hacking is a mix of networking / program exploitations, all Linux distros like Backtrack (Hail backtrack) do is bundle sec tools together into a nice convenient page, backtrack just happens to with no foot print off a live cd. Unfortunately I had to stumble upon this as a sec topic, what a joke, anything computer related is useless without actually applying knowledge to practice. Speaking on just “how” to hack is a waste of time without actual nmap commands that pen out of date win 2k boxes w/o av or firewalls assuming you know the first steps to finding them.

Hi there i just wanted to suggest something about programming rather than using c++ which is quite tiring for a beginner to understand i would recommend python which is quite stable,powerful and easy to learn and has and has very good tutorials too.. check it out
