nUbuntu or Network Ubuntu is a project to take the existing Ubuntu distribution and remaster it as a LiveCD and Full Install with tools needed for penetrating testing servers and networks. The main idea is to keep Ubuntu's ease of use and mix it with the popular pen testing tools used by pen testers. Besides usage for network and server testing, nUbuntu will be made to be a desktop distribution for advanced Linux users.
