what i am doing wrond ?

[CKing]

Not sure what -f in pyrit is supposed to accomplish, -i is probably what you were looking for. You can also cut cowpatty out of the equation and just run:
"pyrit -e lizdainis_ap -i /pentest/passwords/wordlists/darkc0de.lst -r izdainis.cap attack_passthrough"

why cowpatty not working ?

[Gitsnik]

You kind of have to read the error messages for this to be useful to you. Sort of necessary you see.

The command 'passthrough' requires the option '-o'. See 'help'.

Pretty sure if you look at what you're pasting instead of just trying to crack the protocol, you might start getting somewhere.

sorry for my bad english . i saw error
what i have to specify with -o ?
when i specify something i get another error

"pyrit -e lizdainis_ap -o /root/asd -i /pentest/passwords/wordlists/darkc0de.lst passthrough | cowpatty -d - -r lizdainis.cap -s lizdainis_ap"

is telling pyrit to write the pmks to /root/asd, and then telling cowpatty to read from stdin. If you read the man page, online documentation, or even the short help offered by running pyrit without any commands, you would know that stdout can be specified with '-'. Why are you so determined to use cowpatty anyways? Pyrit does the whole job by itself quite nicely.

thanx evereone every thing is working i needed this
root@bt:~# pyrit -e lizdainis_ap -o - -i /pentest/passwords/wordlists/darkc0de.lst passthrough | cowpatty -d - -r lizdainis.cap -s lizdainis_ap
with cowpaty it is faster
