DC919 extends an open invitation to the community to join us for an 
introductory workshop on Metasploit basics. Metasploit is a penetration 
testing framework that allows users to leverage community-built exploits 
and tools to perform security assessments against services. The 
Metasploitable virtual machine is an intentionally vulnerable virtual 
machine aimed at demonstrating many of Metasploit's features. DC919 
members Sussurro and Ronin will demonstrate how to approach the 
Metasploitable distribution, navigate the BackTrack 5 Linux distribution, 
MAP network hosts using nmap, and finally assess and exploit services 
using Metasploit.

This is a free hands-on workshop; we'll be crowd-sourcing pizza, so please 
bring cash to contribute to the pizza fund!  Let us know in advance if you 
have any food restrictions.

Attendees are encouraged to bring your own machines, and to download the 
following tools:

* BackTrack 5 R3 with Gnome from http://www.backtrack-linux.org/

* Metasploitable from 
https://community.rapid7.com/community/metasploit/blog/2012/06/13/introducing-metasploitable-2

* VMware Player from http://www.vmware.com/

These tools will allow attendees to perform all the activities required 
for this workshop on their local machine. Please download these beforehand 
and make sure your computer has sufficient resources to run them!

Basic tasks we will be performing:
* Basic Linux navigation and tools in BackTrack 5
* Using nmap to MAP networks and services
* Using Metasploit to fingerprint services
