Aircrack-ng linpus

Hi there.

I am wondering if someone could make a step by step how-to of how to get the aircrack-ng suite fully functional on the AA1 (110 version with linpus lite)

If i install the suite from yum, first of all, airmon-ng won't sett my card to monitor mode, which is sort of the essential part of using the suite ^^

i have not tested any ther functionality any furter since i cant get pased this spot.

 

just some more info for you:

Code:

[user@localhost ~]$ sudo airmon-ng
Wireless tools not found

 

Hi,

The message is caused by the location that the package manager installs the various part of the aircrack suite to.
for some reason sudo doesn't see the same paths for commands as the root user.

in order to get it to work i on mine i have to 'su -' and log in as root first , then all works fine.

As for monitor mode, you need to recompile a patched set of drivers for the wifi card. see here:- http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=madwifi-ng
3 tips:-
1) Backup first, i managed to leave myself with no WIFI connectivity the first time i did this.
2) Before starting the instructions be sure to be logged in as root ( 'su -' )
3) Perform the 'wget' and 'svn' commands first as the 'ifconfig' lines take your wifi connection down, hence no internet.

Hope that helps

.Dave

 

thanks, im backing up mu system now, then giving it a go

do you know if there are any other problems with any of the other programs in the aircrack-ng suite?

i managed to get my card in monitor mode, and got airodump up and going...

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#[email protected]
#

# The stop function
stop() {
    ifconfig ath0 down
    wlanconfig ath0 destroy
    wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode managed
    ifconfig ath0 up
}

# The start function
start() {
    ifconfig ath0 down
    wlanconfig ath0 destroy
    wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode monitor
    ifconfig ath0 up
}


# Main if statment to see what user wants
if [ "$1" = "start" ]; then
    start
elif [ "$1" = "stop" ]; then
    stop
else
    echo "usage = monitor start / stop"
fi

i made a small script and put it in /usr/bin and run it from su... works good

 

sudo inherits the $PATH system variable from the user who runs sudo. su, on the other hand, opens a new shell as root, so gets root's $PATH.

 

i've managed to get all this working using the same techinique too... only problem is I'm not able to inject so can only crack when network traffic is heavy.

have you managed to get injection working on your setup?

 

i am about to update the madwifi driver ^^ i'll post with som updates on my progress if i get it to work then i'll write a little guide perhaps

 

well, im stuck... could you explain more detaild how you did this?
i get to the "make" part of the madwifi patchand get this:

Code:

[root@localhost madwifi-ng]# make
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: /lib/modules/2.6.23.9lw/build: No such file or directory
Makefile.inc:66: *** /lib/modules/2.6.23.9lw/build is missing, please set KERNELPATH.  Stop.

 

i cannot install svn,there's the error message:

Code:

    Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13(GNUTLS_1_3) is needed by package libpurple
    Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13 is needed by package libpurple
    Error: notification-daemon-xfce conflicts with notify-daemon

    Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13(GNUTLS_1_3) is needed by package vlc-core
    Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.5.so.1.0 is needed by package pcmlinux

what i have to do?

 

I hit this too and got round it by downloading the kernel source into the following directory:

/usr/src/kernels/2.6.26.6-49.fc8-i68

and created the following links:

/usr/src/linux-2.6.23.9 -> kernels/2.6.26.6-49.fc8-i68

/lib/modules/2.6.23.9lw/build -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.23.9
/lib/modules/2.6.23.9lw/source -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.23.9

Hope that's of some help.

 

You probably shouldn't build against a different kernel source, you can get the original from here ftp://[email protected]/Aspire_O ... 23.9lw.zip

 

Check out this post its pretty detailed
