wpa2 dictionary

[xshit]

Hello,

First time i want to greetings for all master here, i'm a newbie using backtrack. I need a little guide if u don't mind.

I try to pentest wpa2 and i get a handshake to bruteforce, but seems like a dictionary from backtrack cannot found the pasphrase, so i download a completed dictionary ..

and the problem is the dictionary that i download is too big to read by memory, and aircrak pass this dictionary. this dictionary size is 20 GB.

My question is how can i use this dictionary with aircrack ?. i try to view this with all editor and no one can open it. Thank you for your guide.

aircrack have a 2GB file size limit!

split the file:

split -b 1024 m /tmp/wpa_list /tmp/smaller_wpa_list_

*wpa_list = your 20GB file

you can open such a big file with ultraedit.
