"I am Rovic, a DeepWeb Researcher and Knowledge is my Power!"

Alam mo ba na bago ka maging isang magaling na Ethical Hacker o penetration tester dapat ay pamilyar ka sa Linux, dahil nga ito ay ang pinakamalakas o pinakapowerful na operating system sa buong mundo. Fit na fit talaga para sa mga ethical hacking o penetration testing ang Linux dahil compatible ito sa halos lahat ng tools at software na iyong gagamitin dahil nga pili lamang na mga tools o softwares ang pwede mong magamit sa ibang OS tulad na lamang ng Mac at Windows.

Ito ang ilan sa mga distro ng Linux OS na dapat mong malaman:

Redhat Linux - Madalas na ginagamit para sa administration purpose.

Debian Linux - dinesenyo para lamang sa mga open source software.

Ubuntu Linux - dinesenyo para sa pansariling gamit lamang.

Mac OS X - ginagamit para sa lahat ng Apple Computers.

Solaris - Ginagamit sa mga commercial environments

BackTrack Linux - kadalasang ginagamit sa penetration testing.

Mayroon ding ilang mga exceptions sa isang Linux file system at ito ay ang mga sumusunod:

Directories - Files that are list of other files

Special Files - The mechanism used for inout and input. (Example is /dev)

Links - A system to make file or directory visible in multiple parts of the systems.

Sockets - A special file type, similar to TCP/IP sockets providing inter-processing networking.

Pipes - More or less like sockets; they are form a way for process to communicate with each other without using network socket.

Common Applications you can encounter in Linux

1. Apache—This is an open source web server. Most of the web runs on the Apache web server.

2. MySQL—This is the most popular database used in Unix-based systems.

3. Sendmail—This is a free Linux-based mail server. It is available inside both open source and commercial versions.

4. Postfix—This can be used as a send-mail alternative.

5. PureFTP—This is the default ftp server used for almost all Unix-based systems.

6. Samba—This provides file and printer sharing services. The best part is that it can easily integrate with Windows-based systems.
