How to attack Linux?
I've got a bit of an unusual dilemma on my hands.
I'm doing some evaluations of Linux products at work (distros, a few tools, stuff like that). One of the fun ones I get to try out is putting LIDS onto a server and trying to lock it down as tight as possible. It looks like I can make one freakin' impossible to break system. Which brings me to a problem.
How the heck do you run attacks against Linux boxen in the first place? I know Metasploit and Nessus will do scans/attacks, but I think those are mostly targetted at systems with known vulnerabilities *cough*win32*cough*. So what sort of automated bombardment tools/tricks can anyone think of that'll blow away a Linux box?
