True, there are other tools one can use. And I think it's nice to see someone who wants people to read, try and learn on their own :)

Too bad hamster is windows only for now.

I suggest you read up on the basics of packets and headers and such before doing anything else. Reading about different xss hacks might be a good idea too.

In /usr/src maybe? Using the locate or the find command you can easily list all the directories and files on your computer with kernel in the name.

Try putting the essid in quotes, like "Foo Bar Network". That should do it.

What happens when you try the one with VESA mode?

BT can be configured if you install it on your hard drive ;)

Works for me too :)

Instead of asking what BT can or can not do, why not try it and see for yourself?

Because? What happens if you try the other options? Have you tried configuring X in a way that will work with your hardware?

Not sure if you've heard of it before, so I thought I'd mention it here; pwgen is a good password generator. The passwords it generates contain either only lowercase letters, or upper and lower case...

We will be able to help you better if you could give us some more information. What option do you choose before the actual loader with the text?

I think it's a good question, but next time you could give the thread a better title. That way more people are likely to read it, and hopefully give you a good answer :)

No activity means no packets and no packets means nothing to collect. Try browsing a few websites, connect to msn or irc, view a video on youtube and then start airodump.

Are there any activity on that network at all?

Never heard of it, actually. But it looks good enough.

You should take a look at the job market where you live and see what they are after. Some places a BSc is just fine, other places an MSc is required.

A new open-source tool called Crapto1 could allow hackers free travel on the London Underground, by decrypting communication data between RFID chips and readers. -- from pcpro.co.uk

Definitely worth a try :)

I don't even think that's possible. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here.

Yes, it would probably go faster if you were actually using the network - as there would be more packets to pick up. To answer a question you asked earlier, if the dumpfile would be there next time...

Ah, of course ^_^

What do you mean? He's obviously trying to find the WEP key.

Are you talking about cracking WEP in general?

I tried to figure out what hostap_cs does, but the closest I could get was a description of the package hostap_utils which is utility programs for Host AP driver for Prism chipsets (which is what you...
