that configure correctly your network you need .activate the default software manager networks of baktrack ...

sudo /etc/init.d/wicd start (whit this comand you activate the default network manger of backtrack because dont activate for default ..)

udpdate-rc.d wicd defaults (whit this comand configure wicd to autostart ..)
clear

and now wicd working in backtrack, whit this software you want set yours netwwork ...

I have this working just fine however...

Is there a way to have the networking start automatically upon booting up? That is before I log in? I want to be able to reboot the box remotely, and then have it start networking and ssh so I can remote back into it again.

I found the answer.

The post titled " How to autologin / auto startx / auto booting" helped me to find the answer.


code:
nano /etc/rc.local


The script should look like this when you're done:
# By default this script does nothing.

start-network
/etc/init.d/ssh start
exit 0


So we added the command to start networking before the 'exit 0' line, and also started ssh. Both of these start before you login, so I can now reboot the box remotely and still have access to it.
