Run over to insecure.org and look at all the tools. Pen-test is like
controlled hacking...there is no "exactly how to do it manual" and to
tell you the truth, there really shouldn't be one.

Read, read read....and then..do do do in a controlled world. Reading
everything in sight can get you to the door with the information but
only "doing" can step you into the other room.
