Hello,

Some time ago, Alan recommended a linux distro for penetration
testing on networks that I manage. Sorry Alan, I lost
the referral; google no find......

So from Google, I found a list of 10 linux distros, including Pentoo,
for penetration testing. Rather than take the time to test each one,
recommendations as to which ones anyone likes or uses, would save
me quite some time...

All feedback is appreciated, as I'm looking for a distro, I can run
as a liveDVD, usbstick or such, when I need it and not dedicated
a machine to this task.


TIA,
James
