Installing Metasploit 3.1 On Ubuntu

Installing Metasploit 3.1 on Ubuntu

What's Metaspoit @ Wikipedia

Open a terminal and install these packages prior to installing Metasploit:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby libruby rdoc

$ sudo apt-get install libyaml-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install libzlib-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install libdl-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install libreadline-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install libiconv-ruby

$ sudo apt-get install rubygems

Once these eight packages are installed download the latest version of Metasploit.

Save the tar.gz file and then in the terminal navigate to the folder you saved it in.

Now untar the package:

$ tar -xvzf framework-3.1.tar.gz

Once it has finished extracting navigate into the framework-3.1 folder that was just created.

First we should update Metasploit, to do this you need the Subversion package:

$ sudo apt-get install subversion

Once that is installed update Metasploit:

$ svn update

Now to run the Metasploit console navigate into the framework-3.1folder.. You should already be here and execute:

$ ./msfconsole
