Metasploit Framework

The Metasploit Framework is an advanced open-source platform for developing, testing, and using exploit code. This project initially started off as a portable network game and has evolved into a powerful tool for penetration testing, exploit development, and vulnerability research.

I just found this wikibook that has some excellent instructions and tips & tricks: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Metasploit/Contents

The metasploit site itself has of course a great manual as well.

On Red Hat EL4 you will need to install Ruby version 1.8.2 or higher. This is not yet available in the normal repositories, so I was able to install this package by adding the testing repository. Add the following in your /etc/yum.repos.d/ file:
# packages in testing
[testing]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Testing
baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/$releasever/testing/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing

and run: yum install ruby ruby-devel ruby-libs irb rdoc

If you receive the following error:
./lib/rex/socket/ssl_tcp_server.rb:4:in `require: no such file to load - openssl (LoadError)
from ./lib/rex/socket/ssl_tcp_server.rb:4
from ./lib/rex/socket/comm/local.rb:5:in `require
from ./lib/rex/socket/comm/local.rb:5
from ./lib/rex/socket.rb:22:in `require
from ./lib/rex/socket.rb:22
from ./lib/rex.rb:71:in `require
from ./lib/rex.rb:71
from ./msfconsole:10:in `require
from ./msfconsole:10

You need to install the libopenssl-ruby package, i.e.:
apt-get/yum install libopenssl-ruby
