Hi Jax,
Have you heard about NetSecL 2.0 lately? I think this is the latest security distro released. So we can expect msf3 included in it.
I'm also planning to give it a shot, so can't say anything for sure.

Cheers!

Hey!

Guys I could use some tip which pen-testing distro supports fully the Automated Exploitation with metasploit 3.

Metasploit 3 uses the ActiveRecord <http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/ActiveRecord> module (part of RoR <http://rubyonrails.org/>) to provide an object-oriented interface to an arbitrary database service. Database support is enabled by installing RubyGems <http://www.rubygems.org/>, ActiveRecord ("gem install activerecord"), and a database-specific driver ("gem install [ postgresql | sqlite3 | mysql | etc ]"). Once these components have been installed, you will need to load the appropriate plugin from the msfconsole interface for the database that you want to use. The completed plugins include db_postgres <http://metasploit.com/svn/framework3/trunk/plugins/db_postgres.rb>, db_sqlite3 <http://metasploit.com/svn/framework3/trunk/plugins/db_sqlite3.rb>, and db_sqlite2 <http://metasploit.com/svn/framework3/trunk/plugins/db_sqlite2.rb>.


The best what I tried still backtrack, but postgres doesn't installed in that neither the required ruby packages, ruby gems, sqlite libraries which require to successfully use this feature. Even in my installed ubuntu system I experience difficulties to setup this perfectly. Any suggestions?

Best Regards,

JaX
