Konsole/hydra/backtrack help

[paputsza]

You may have gotten a lot of posts from annoying kids who are trying to take down a network to complex for them. I am one of these people.

I have linux on a computer that I won't mention the name of. But I don't know what language Konsole is run on. Can you give me a simple tutorial thing that would just give me the technical information. ex: if it was a sql thing and said select * from table where 1=2 it would describe that as "select all from the table of table where the column's value is two" or something like that. My ideal tutorial wouldn't have none of that insane instance bull. So please help me find out what Konsole is, and how I run scripts on it. B/c that's how hydra comes in backtrack. And what exactly is Hydra, yet again in lamen terms, and what can I do with it?
