Ettercap and wpa

[File_1]

Is there any way to use ettercap on wpa protected networks to sniff for passwords?

Yes, use it the same way you would use on WEP protected networks. Kinda obvious...

But when I do this:

ettercap -W FB491C5793 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2

ettercap NG-0.7.3 copyright 2001-2004 ALoR & NaGA


Unsupported WEP key lenght

what do I do wrong?

From ettercap --help:

-W, --wep-key <wkey> use this wep key to decrypt wifi packets

It asks for a wep key, not a wpa one. Just connect to the network and use ettercap normally.

Thank you very much. It worked for me without setting WPA encryption key.
