Fine, but who do the passwords belong to?

let me just make this clear to all im doing this on my network and my accounts nothing illegal
One possible reason you wouldn't be able to see GMail passwords is because they are sent over an SSL (https) session.

i was looking through the forums i saw few people talking about sslstrip, would that work for ssl(http)
It works by finding links to https sites in http traffic and rewriting it to go via "look-alike HTTP links or homograph-similar HTTPS links"*
So it can work depending on how the user visits the https site (if the user gets to the https page via a redirect from a http site), but it essentially requires you to perform a man in the middle attack on the web traffic.

i found this post by dskippy about ssl sniffing i did what he said in the post to edit kate /etc/etter.conf and when i ran the following command:
root@bt:~# ettercap --text --quiet --iface wlan0 --plugin autoadd --log-infoog --mitm arp:remote /192.168.1.2/ //
ettercap NG-0.7.3 copyright 2001-2004 ALoR & NaGA
FATAL: Inteface "wlan0" not supported (802.11 plus BSD radio information hea
root@bt:~#
i got the inteface wlan0 not supported does that mean i cant use this wireless card to sniff. the card i have is ALFA networkn model AWUS036H
Do you have your wlan0 in monitor mode? That's the error I got when I tried to use mon0 after putting my wlan0 in monitor mode (Because some idiot said the NIC had to be in monitor mode, which is false): If it is, just take it off monitor mode and just use wlan0 as your interface.
I need to figure out how to tell ettercap to always use wlan0 by default, so I'm looking for code to put in etter.conf for this, but haven't found it yet...
