For you Network & Security types out there, thinking of trying out linux for your auditing and troubleshooting needs...Here are some of my favorite Sniffer, Wireless, and Port Scanning tools for use in Ubuntu Linux. Most of them are command line tools, so you need to launch them via Terminal. Need more info? Google is your friend:

So you're new to Ubuntu Linux. You just got it installed for the first time, but you are wondering how to enable DVD Playback, Flash capability, MP3, Quicktime, and other popular media formats. Never fear, here's a command to get it all up and running.
Open up a terminal window and type:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
You will be prompted for your administrative password, at which point it will begin to download all the required codecs, making your Ubuntu multimedia ready.

Having already covered cloning and backup solutions for OSX and Windows, here are some Linux based solutions I use from time to time.
My favorite Open Source solution is by far Clonezilla. Clonezilla allows you to do bare metal backups/Images and restoration of partitions/volumes or whole drive duplication. It comes in 2 flavors, Clonezilla Live, and Clonezilla SE (server edition) for massive deployment supporting multicast. It supports ext2, ext3, ext4, reiserfs, xfs, jfs of GNU/Linux, FAT, NTFS of MS Windows, and HFS+ for the Mac OS. Providing maximum flexibilty for cloning GNU/Linux, MS windows and Intel-based Mac OS.
