Welcome to the forums.   You have come to the right place.   

I would recommend that you search the forum for "where to begin" or "how to start".   We have discussed this topic quite a bit.    Here is a recent topic with a link to a great article on the subject, for example:

http://www.ethicalhacker.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,54/topic,5015.0/

stardustdrago,

what is that, and we might be able to help. As for items Ketchup posted, they're designed to be a FAQ of a kind to fit everyone.

The best place to start is...  right where Ketchup said.  No one person can give you a 'this is exactly where you should start,' because everyone's learning style and needs are different.  For some, video learning is key, so you might purchase come CBT's, or dig through free video tutorials.  For others, reading books helps, for some working on labs helps.  There's just too broad a spectrum.

If you truly want to do this, you should follow Ketchup's advice, start digging through the forums here, see what experiences others have, and what pointers and lessons they've taken away from the forums and discussions, and proceed from there. 

One other thing you'll find.  We're all here to help, but we're not here to simply handhold, as you won't learn effectively that way.  You need to begin your search, and if you have questions or want to discuss something you've read (if it's from another source outside of ethicalhacker.net, then post on it here, and we'll open a discussion,) then open the discussion.  But to simpy say, ' I would like it better if I could get some suggestions about my exact situation' tells us nothing of your 'exact situation' as everyone's differs, and you aren't asking us anything in particular, so we cannot answer you in particulars.

As Ketchup says, welcome to EH-Net, and you can learn a lot by being here.  Heck, I learned a ton just searching the forums before I even joined and started interacting with others here!

Good luck, and we look forward to future discussions with you.

Welcome to the community. Let's start by what do you know right now. Are you a student? If so, what are you studying? Are you working? What is your title and job description? If you truly know nothing then maybe we should start with what you like. Are you a coder at heart? Networking guy? Systems admin looking to know more about the attacks that happen in your server room on a daily basis? What makes you stay up all night just browsing the web to find out more? And don't tell me 'ethical hacking.' The field is too big to just say that. You have network pen testing, forensics, reverse engineering, wireless... and the list goes on.

So this is what the members are trying to tell you when they ask for you to give them a little more to go on.

In the meantime, try this:

1. Learn TCP/IP then more advanced networking concepts. Get your hands on some networking hardware and start playing.
2. Learn Python then move into a more advanced language.
3. Look at the pinned topics at the top of the Network Pen Testing Board.
4. Come back with an answer to my question of what keeps you up all night because you can't get enough... besides pr0n. 

Does that help?

* imho of course

No need to state the same thing - I agree with what everyone else has stated.

And to add to what unsupported just said...

Don't just show up and say "I want information [on my exact situation]" without providing information on what that situation might be.

Follow the links, search the forums and READ the posts, specifically the original post in those threads. See how other people formulated their questions/posts and what sort of response they received.

When you're ready, try again.
