Tutorial on Hacking With Kali Linux
Hacking With Kali Linux
Why Kali Linux?
With Kali Linux, hacking becomes much easier since you have all the tools (more than 300 pre-installed tools) you are probably ever gonna need. Others can be downloaded easily. Now this tutorial will get you started and you'll be hacking with Kali Linux before you know it.
The problem with beginners

Download Kali Linux:-

Download Torrent file
- If you are totally clueless as to what kali linux is - Go to kali.org and get an idea.
- If you haven't already done that,go to their download page and download Kali Linux.
Now this is where things get tougher. If you have no previous experience with Linux and virtual machines and all that stuff, getting Kali Linux up and running won't be a piece of cake.You have 2 options :
1) Read the Kali documentation and get an idea about what is a virtual machine, how OS can be run from USB, and how to create a partition and run 2 OS simultaneously. This is what I recommend. For that, go to Kali Official Documentation .
2) The second option is to look at these posts, which are just sparingly modified versions of the Kali docs, and offer no advantage other than saving your time as their documentations cover much more than what the ones here do, and you don't really need to know all so much... yet.
Command Line Interface
Some bash commands |
A pretty awesome site for that is - http://linuxcommand.org/
Going through the complete site is on its own enough exercise to keep you occupied for a month, but you can proceed gradually. The first few tutorials here will keep in mind that you don't have much info about cli, and will be really beginner friendly.
Some Useful Commands:
If you don't plan on learning all of linux cli commands, here are a few that will keep your boat afloat.
- The default username and password is 'root' and 'toor'.
- Type 'poweroff' in the terminal to shutdown.
- apt-get command can be used to install tools and updates.
- apt-get update and apt-get upgrade will update all the programs installed on your machine.
- apt-get dist-upgrade will install the latest distribution of Kali(i.e. it upgrades your OS).
PS : Tapping <tab> while typing makes Kali complete the word for you . Double tapping <tab> makes it display all possible words starting with the incomplete word. Ctrl+c stops the functioning of any tool that is running. Pressing the up arrow key shows the command you last typed.
