Useful Howto Threads

[hobbes]

This is a page with links to some of the more useful/popular threads on the forum on topics that aren't covered in the BackTrack Wiki or are already up on Irongeek's security tutorials page (those new to linux should also bookmark www.slackbook.org and refer to it frequently). Google has also added a linux-specific search that is great for checking error output ( http://www.google.com/linux ) Feel free to PM me with links that you think I've missed or should be included and I"ll edit them in. Thanks to everybody who's contributed to the thread so far.

Because somebody had to do it.

Hi All,

Not sure if this is the right place to post but I just had to re-build and had to update aircrack-ng again. I think that the new svn address is:

MOD EDIT that link is no longer good. Aircrack-ng is the new domain name. If you just use fast-track or the svn update in bt3 you will be fine.

This will now give you Aircrack 1.0 beta 2 r965

The svn link on the Howto which points at '1.0-dev' does not seem to work anymore. Maybe they moved it?

Hope helps someone.

Cheers...

Hi All,

Sorry but a quick question. Probably an error on my part but I kept getting stuck around circa r700 with Fast Track and when I tried improvising by using snv co to get 'http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/svn/trunk/' I got 1.0 beta2 r1009 which seems to work OK. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to revert? I am running BT3 off an sd 4g memory card on an eee pc with an Alfa wireless card... Cheers...
