Reprint: Let me turn rookies into Alpha Geeks... (Probably keyed in during my bout of Schizophrenia --not sure)

Let me turn rookies into Alpha Geeks...

My Ethical Hacking / Penetration Testing Lab

Hardware:

1. Laptop: vgc (very good condition)
2. Laptop: Oldie
3. Desktop: Oldie

I shy away from hardware so not giving you specs -- By the way, I'd mug up CompTIA A+ guide(s).

I'd sign up for a dedicated high-speed Internet connexion.

In the not too distant future: I'd also sign up for a dedicated IP address.

I'd also get a Hardware Firewall (dirt cheap) but sturdy -- should deflect attacks -- though I just adore those groovy Check Point's UTM appliances.

Software:

1. Windows Server 2012 (Evaluation copy)
2. Honeypots
3. BBS

What's your role?

You've to attack my systems viciously (no-holds-barred). This a real live Ethical Hacking exercise. Relentless -- knock-down-drag-out -- distributed attacks.
