Hi all,
to test my wireless network I played with airodump and aircrack following the
tutorial here:http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2007/08/howto-aircrack-ng-quick-
and-simple.html.
Now I've captured packets untill airodump presented me the WPA-PSK handshake
title in the top right corner of the screen. Then I stopped the program
airodump, and tried to guess the passprhase using the dictionary of john the
ripper:
aircrack-ng -w /usr/share/john/password.lst *.cap
and the program quitted after testing (only) 472 keys without founding the
right one. So I added the right passphrase to the dictionary, as last entry,
and ran it again, but the system is still unable to guess the passphrase. Am
I doing something wrong?
Luca
