Hi,
PHLAK is Debian based. The only Knoppix based I know of is Knoppix-STD.

Pretty much same thing, since Knoppix is based on Debian aswell :)

Hi,

I am not sure if anuj want a live CD with loads of security tools and stuff like those too or a "secure" live CD. (aka a distro that focuses on being secure).

Ohh...sorry. :oops: I haven't used Knoppix in a while. In that case, I would go for PHLAK. It is more maintained. Knoppix-STD hasn't came out with a release in several years. If you are looking for a secure Linux distro, I would go for Trustix Secure Linux as long as you're not afraid of console(It has no X). I don't think they make a LiveCD though. As far as Live CDs go I don't know what to tell you.

Hii!
After reviewing many I found The Auditor security collection is better than most of the other in the same category.
cheers
