Hello prdp,

In my oppinion, to start your journey as pen tester you will need
basic understanding
of the TCP/IP protocol. Basic programming skills (c comes to mind)

Moderate knowledge of OS of your choice. A good reading material source:
white papers, online magazines, books.

Perhaps the most important: patience and lots of practise.

Note: There are many free and commercial tools at your disposal.
I suggest to start with auditor live cd.
