[>] Update Script for Backtrack 5.

[R0FL80]

Hi,

I'm new on this forum. I'm using backtrack for years from backtrack2 until now backtrack5-r2. I'm just another human being spending hours/days/years in a virtualized environment . Looking for vulnerability waiting for me to exploit. I really like your script. I discovered that some updates where not available: exploit-db, warvox, metasploit. As far as I know is svn not supported (at the moment) by exploit-db.

svn: Unknown hostname 'svn.exploit-db.com'

So I edited your script, fix those issues, I hope you appreciate it. Because of "The text that you have entered is too long (21339 characters). Please shorten it to 10000 characters long". If someone is interested, let me know I also wrote a small bashscript for updating exploit-db based on file-size. I'm working on a tools-version-script, just a tool to grep all version-numbers of the software installed in /pentest/. Of course I need also to build a update script for checking those version-numbers and to check if there are new updates available on internet.
Looking forward to read a comment on this post in the near future.

Really simple updatescript voor exploit-db

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./backtrack_update.py", line 14 in <module>
import sys, urllib2, subprocess, argparse, os
Import Error: no module named argparse

[acocalypso]

just needed to install apt-get install python-argparse

acocalypso,

From what I remember that should come default for Backtrack, will do more tests and if not add it to the script.

I had gotten that error when I tried to run the script without updating to R3. Updating to R3 fixes it, via apt-get upgrade or fresh install.
