That might be a good place to start.  But it will surely need some
customization.  For example:

o http://knoppix-std.org/tools.html mentions "Nmap 3.10".  If that is
  what they are really using in the latest version, it needs to be
  updated to 3.48.  You might be able to convince them to do this so
  that all knoppix-std users will benefit.

o Their version of honeyd might have to be updated as well

o Presumably they don't have the virtual network we have been
  discussing.  That will take quite a bit of configuration and setup
  work.

o They say "many network services can be started with but a click on
  the menu and many of those services have known vulnerabilities." at
  http://www.knoppix-std.org/faq.html .  If we are going to start any of
  these services, we should probably upgrade them to a secure version
  first.

Do people generally agree with the idea of basing this on knoppix-std,
or do you have better suggestions?

Cheers,
