Debian Linux: Add backtrack 5 gpg key and its repositories.

Get the backtrack gpg key and add to debian.

The use of piping of adding the key.

If you are not familiar with piping this is what this long string of command means:

1. wget http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org/backtrack.gpg

2. sudo apt-key add backtrack.gpg

wget http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org/backtrack.gpg -O –

This means download backtrack.gpg and output to stdout (standard output stream)

sudo apt-key add –

This means add apt-key from the stdin (standard input stream)

wget http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org/backtrack.gpg -O – | sudo apt-key add –

Add the repositories

Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list with your favourite text editor.

#backtrack
deb http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org revolution main microverse non-free testing
deb http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org revolution main microverse non-free testing
deb http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org revolution main microverse non-free testing

Update the apt database

sudo apt-get update

Without the gpg key apt-get will reject the database download. From here on you can download the pentest tools directly from backtrack-linux repositories.
