Newbie questions

[mothy]

I have just installed backtrack and am trying to get the hang of the different tools but when I run them (ie DNSwalk) it says dns walk is not currently installed you can install by typing apt-get install dnswalk. When I do that it tells me it is installed and is up to date.

What the heck am I doing wrong.

Sorry for the dumb questions

Thanks

Besides the obvious fact that you are trying to run before you can walk, try one of these 3 things.
1. Find the tool in the menu and run it from there.
2. Open a terminal and type ./toolname then hit enter.
3. Navigate to the tool directory and type the same from 2 above.
But before you do any of that, read the "if you are new thread" linked below.
