I mean no disrespect, and I apologizes for the double post, but I know I didn't download the vmware version. It said iso version I even downloaded the hash calculator. This is what I got MD5:...

I've downloaded backtrack 4 r2 on windows 7 but I don't see the iso image. I have a open folder with files and other folders but don see the image. could someone please help me.

My problem is not with aircrack-ng. airodump-ng does not pick as many networks in bt4 like it does in bt3, or does aircrack-ng has something to do with airodump-ng scanning for networks, or could it...

Well first my background doesn't show the backtrack sign. Its a blue kde background.
2nd: The bar at the bottom is totally different. It has the backtrack button but the files not in its original...

I would like yo start by saying I'm working off bt3 beta vmware iso.
vmware fusion 2.0

I've logged into backtrack numerous of times, but this last time when I did the startx command it took me to...

[QUOTE=kid protocol;123609]At the command line.


iwconfig (your interface) essid (your essid) key (your key).
dhclient (your interface).

I was not trying to double post (please delete).

I didn't know that. I had the BT3 vmware image, and I don't recall it saving anything. I wouldn't never tried dual booting either. You learn something new everyday.(LOL)

I was trying out the BT4 vmware image on my network when I noticed when my .cap files was still in my home directory when I restarted vmware. I then powered off my mac, and restarted it, and the...

I believe that sticking with bt4 beta would be the best thing. I had issues with packet injection with my Linksys wusb54gc in bt3 final, but now with bt4 beta it injects with no hesitation. Plus it's...

At the command line.

I thought aircrack-ng was just to crack the wep. What
I was referring to is airodump-ng in bt4 doesn't pick up as many networks as airodump-ng did in bt3 final.
aircrack-ng works just fine.

I noticed when using airodump-ng in bt4 that I didn't pick up as many networks as i did on bt3 final. It's like my cards signal isn't as strong on bt4 as it is on bt3. I did a test to see which...

Use airmon-ng to detect your cards chip set. Then use airodump-ng (your NIC) to scan for wireless networks. To test injection use aireplay-ng -9 (your NIC). To configure use ifconfig, or iwconfig...

airmon-ng start wlan0 is the correct syntax.

What I don't under stand I could connect no problem with the airport card on my mac book, but bt3, and 4 under vmware is giving me hell. My macboks signal strength is beautiful (full bars), but my...

sorry for the double post my internet connection failed while submitting wasn't sure if first post posted!!

Ok I now understand, but that was actually an assumption. I did move a bit closer, but for future references how would I test how strong my wireless card is, and is there any way to improve it?...

I don't quite understand what you are saying. What exactly are you looking for?

Ok I think found the problem. I moved a little closer and injection worked partially (not that strong), but I still showed him how unsafe wep is. I cracked it!! Thanks for your help.:cool:

Thanks for the reply.Yes their both on the same channel, and yes I've specified the channel, and made sure it was in monitor mode, but the same thing happened because their on the same channel. Also...

I was trying to show a friend how easy it was to crack his wep network. WITH HIS CONSENT I attempted to crack his key. I had good power around 87, and beacons was moving good, but I couldn't...

Also I was trying out the man in the middle attack with ettercap on the commnd line, and the original commands doesn't work for me.
Command: ettercap -M -p -q -T ARP // //
It response back with -T...

Ok let me make sure i understand. Association doesn't happen automatically, and I might have to set the channel to speed things up.
So how exactly do I associate with my ap? I tried iwconfig wlan0...

My mistake (gateway) is what I use I missed typed, but thats the message I'm getting still.

Also dhclient has not given me an ip address that is the problem. I've used "iwconfig wlan0 my network...

I am running BT4 in vmware (not the vmware image), but the original iso with a LInksys wusb54gc adapter, and I was trying to connect to my access point with dhclient. I've been successful may be 3...
