Using Kali Linux? PLEASE READ!!
Preamble
The purpose of this sticky is to advise people who are new to Linux and have downloaded Kali Linux and/or who have installed it or who are having problems with it; on what Kali Linux is, is meant for, as well as the best course of action in the event of problems.
What is Kali Linux?
Kali Linux is a Linux distribution based on Debian Linux, and is developed by Offensive Security Ltd. Kali Linux is designed for digital forensics, penetration testing and other network security auditing.
Who should be using Kali Linux?
Because of the above, Kali Linux has been designed for ICT security professionals and is not recommended for Linux newbies/beginners. This is because Kali Linux requires a good understanding of both networking and the administration of Linux based operating systems.
If you are not well-versed in administrating Linux based operating systems, you are strongly advised to choose a far more suitable Linux distribution, as Kali Linux will not be suitable for the newbie/beginner.
In addition, it can be highly frustrating for members of LQ to answer Kali Linux related questions such as (but not limited to) configuring an internet connection, creating user accounts, fixing graphical environment issues, etc. As a consequence, most LQ members may be unwilling to assist people seeking help with basic configuration issues.
