Pyrit Batch Command takes long time, is it required?

[nam5301]

If you have not got enough space you can pass it to cowpatty.

pyrit -e test1 -i /pentest/passwords/wordlists/wordlist.lst -o-  passthrough | /pentest/wireless/cowpatty/cowpatty -d - -s test1 -r wpa.cap

VMware cant use graphics cards on host machines so wont show up in pyrit benchmarks.
You cant use laptop wireless cards either as both these and the GPU cant be seperated from the host machine like a USB device can.

You could use bridge mode to get to the net.

What i have got is a hard drive with BT4 on it which is 12GB parition, enough to install updates and Nvidia drivers etc, then you can put the password file on the other partition.

========================================



directory of wordlist: media:/sda5/wpa_wordlist/Super-WPA.txt

That's exactly what I want but don't know how to get the directory or location of wordlist correct in the cracking command of pyrit. That's why pyrit is not cracking, because it can't find the wordlist. I have my wordlists in a separate hard drive and I want to load that wordlist from that hard drive to crack WPA on backtrack. But the command is not being so cool, it's teasing me. Making me feel like it might work but it doesn't. And All Drives are mounted.......

1. Pyrit will NOT be able to use your hosts graphics card if running in VMware

2. You have to mount the external drive and give pyrit the full path
i.e mkdir /mnt/external && mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/external

Was thinking that when i reviewed the screen shots.
If your case Nam, the drive would be sda5, look in Gparted just to make sure though.

I have only used the cowpatty passthrough i cant seem to get your code to work when i tried it with my files or the test one in aircrack but the cowpatty code i posted works fine on my machine.
