“About

“GnackTrack is a Live (and installable) Linux distibution
designed for Penetration Testing and is based on Ubuntu. Although
this sounds like BackTrack, it’s most certainly not; it’s very
similar but based on the much loved GNOME!

“REMEMBER – GnackTrack is, and always will be, completely free!
But, should you feel the need to donate some money please do so at
my Chairty JustGiving page.

“For more information and specifics please read the FAQs or send
me an email

“Feedback

“Thanks for all the wonderful feedback with regards to the first
alpha release. I’m please at the amount of people of have
downloaded it and then given the time to offer advise and support.
I’ve taken onboard a few of the requests and will hopefully put
them into the 10.04_alpha3 version. For the time being please
continue to point out bugs and issues for me to resolve. Also,
don’t forget to spread the word!”
