Just tryin’…

Connections from/to laptop

sudo tcpdump -i wlan0 -p|cut -d' ' -f3,5|cut -d':' -f1|tee dump

cat dump |uniq |sed -r 's/^(.*)\.[^.]+ (.*)\.([^.]+)/\1,\3,\2/' > local.csv

cat local.csv |./afterglow.pl |neato -Tgif -o test.gif

What a mess!

Connections from laptop

Let’s try again, this time only focusing on the outgoing connections initiated:

Much better...

Metasploit now has a utility to allow people to practise pentesting on a controlled environment.  Termed “Metasploitable”, I’m guessing it is because it is “pwnable”

It’s basically an Ubuntu 8.04 server on a VMware 6.5 image, running plenty of old and vulnerable services.  Yummy!

It is available to Metasploit Express customers from the Customer Center, and for the rest of us peeps, it’s freely available for download via Bittorrent. (a bit slow, but I’ll try to seed this for as long as possible when I managed to get it entirely)

More info at the blog post.

A couple of takeaways:

• Toys/tools aren’t meant to take over our lives, they’re meant for us to use as toys/tools.
• One of the responses to God’s choosing of you, is for you to actively choose to live under Him too.
