You're making it too easy ;-)

Sorry to dig up such an old post, but I just started using it and found the following things 'weird':

Do you want to keep the whole log file for further use or shall we delete it? (Y=keep)

Hi,

On #backtrack-linux I requested a 'new' tool (winlockpwn by Adam Boileau aka Metlstorm).
Pure-hate advised me to make a redmine request. I created an account but can't login with the newly...

do you have a routing table which contains 'the internet' ?
paste the output of
netstat -nr

Another great test for beginners, thanks.

Can you ping those hosts on IP?
www.bing.com =
Addresses: 82.94.229.16
82.94.229.8

Google =
74.125.77.99
74.125.77.104
74.125.77.147

This is quite impossible :)
Perhaps you mean 255.255.255.0?

Really nice and detailed paper further on, easy to read. Kudos :)

check the /var/logs/messages file for clues or

man uname

Go to the #metasploit channel on Freenode or some other metasploit help. This is a backtrack forum, not metasploit.

Use this forum, use Youtube, consider taking the OffSec course if you're really into it and just play around with it a lot.

If I recall correct, the command should be
su - ircuser -c pidgin
But check if the ircuser has a valid home and the pidgin files are writable by just logging in as ircuser and startx/pidgin.

@Archangel-Amael: The Redmine link seems empty, but the problem hasn't been fixed (for BT5-x86 KDE atleast not).
What I've done:
Install BT5 KDE x86 from CD to HD (entire disk) using Install...

IM packet manipulation just appears on the receiving side, not the sending.

In that case, why don't you just go over the sysadmins head and just make an appointment with the CEO, via his secretary?
Most of the time when you say something fancy like 'performing a simulation...

Shouldn't this post be moved to the Howto section instead of bugs?
Since this isn't a backtrack issue really and you've made a howto.

How did this got allowed to be posted in the expert section? :/

Right, same here.
However, your manual currently gives a 404 on the wireshark download link, since they've updated the bz2 files to newer versions. You might want to change your manual from:
wget...

Does this count for all BT5 versions or just the x64 ones?

You need to know if that person has the mandate to engage/setup such an investigation, but thats quite hard if everybody above him is either away or not available.
I wouldn't take the job since,...

Well that all depends on the processing power doesn't it?

Aircrack can only manage files with a max size of 2GB, so you need to split the file up into more smaller files.
See my older post here:...

Thats a really nice feature!

Try a 'less <filename>' to see if the wordlist actually contains words.
And perhaps the format of the file is corrupted, with ^M or such.

Ha! As if! Do you have any idea how hard it is to edit/modify a script! ;)

You should write the author instead of opening a tread here, since this has nothing to do with Backtrack itself.
