hi,

i quite new to metasploit, but heard a lot about it.

i am interested to explore way the Vulnerability scan and exploit  is made.
i am facing problems in installing metasploit in Windows XP dedicated system
for this
i installe metasploit 3.0 from archive and updated it to 3.8.

but, i am unable to create any database, whether database is mandatory for
this ?
i am not clear with installation procedure, and how to setup a basic sytem
for running exploit,
ie , that to know the available weekness of the neighbour computers in work
place.

is it mandatory to do this use only LInux or can it be done using Windows.

please give your opinion and guidance


regards
