Linux Security Live-Cds
Hello. I was wondering if I could get some advice on what is the best linux security live-cd? There are so many, I am really not sure which one I should try first. Back Track, Knoppix STD, nUbuntu, etc.
On a seperate topic, what would be best for wardriving...War Linux?
Thanks very much

Personally I dig Backtrack.
And as for your war driving query, backtrack has lots of wireless security tools.

Also, check out Damn Vulnerable Linux
It seems as if they are still polishing up the distro for final release, but it's geared more towards someone just learning how to pen test; whereas BackTrack is a full-fledged tool for professional use (or more for advanced users, anyway).
Definitely worth keeping an eye on.
