Ok Tech, I would appreciate some help
| Other distros too, but they are not installed in the other computers, so if we decide to use Kali or Tails for example, we would use time, and time is a resource. So, any tips with tools and "hows" to do it, I would appreciate it, I'm doing some research on my own as well.
| I'm not a networking engineer, but I'd spin up two docker instances for the FTP and HTTP servers. Them being docker containers would give you the option to lock down their networking and user permissions, aswell as access to folders on the root host. Then just have them exposed on two ports and do the rest with iptables. I'd have that up and running very quickly with NixOS, but that might be going too far since you'd have to learn a whole new OS. It's a fun excercise tho, have fun.
| Why can i never find people like this on tech, people i find are like "install linux it will work"

I'd say it's because OPs question is sufficiently descriptive. He asks for tools with which he can set up virtualized FTP and HTTP servers. Fair enough, right?
| >>388987 Op here. Not only that but penetration testing and attack tools too would be nice as well thanks.

`nmap` can give you an idea of what a host is running on which port. Also I wouldn't treat Kali as a magic solution to cracking network security. AFAIK all packages it offers can be installed on other distros.
| >>389031 I don't think it is either, but is one of the main recommendation in the subject, that is why I quoted early. Nmap is on my list I haven't used yet, but I will try my luck there, thanks

| I am a networks student, I'm having security classes, our professor gave us an interesting activity, pretty much a game, we have to set up an FTP and HTTP server, virtualize it, use bridge to make a connection, build a firewall to protect it, after that we have to hack each other groups, there are 5 groups of 5 people. We don't know wich OS we are going to build the server yet, but before you guys starts to screech, in our interface we have been using Ubuntu, we have access to...
