Oh, BTW.some wireless cards won't work with these linux bootable disco. That could be a problem for ya. But if you can get them to work, the last one has over 300 security tools built-in. Both Knoppix and Knoppix STD have Airsnort, Kismet, Ethereal, Ettercap, WEPCrack. Good stuff. -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com [mailto:full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com] On Behalf Of Todd Towles Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 8:53 AM To: 'Simmons, Thomas'; full-disclosure () lists netsys com Subject: RE: [Full-disclosure] WEP utilities I would guess you are doing this for security purposes. If you are going to test things to stay secure, then test what would be used against you (most likely). What is KNOPPIXR? KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux <http://www.knopper.net/linux/> software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it. www.knoppix.com <http://www.knoppix.com/> www.knoppix-std.org <http://www.knoppix-std.org/> http://www.moser-informatik.ch/ Using a linux bootable CD will help you learn Linux without knowing how to configure it. Try Airsnort (on the fly WEP decryption), Kismet for wireless detection, Ethereal for packet sniffing. No need to install software, your work computer will be untouched after you are done. Note - I had a Cisco error when running Kismet with Knoppix 3.4 - 3.3 worked great and I still use it. The newest version of 3.4 may have fixed the issue however. -Todd -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com [mailto:full-disclosure-admin () lists netsys com] On Behalf Of Simmons, Thomas Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 7:59 AM To: full-disclosure () lists netsys com Subject: [Full-disclosure] WEP utilities I am trying to find a WEP utility for Intrusion detection & Network probing. I currently do not have Linux deployed or a competent enough grasp of Linux to use tool in Linux. What I am looking for is any tools that will do WEP decryption as well as Packet sniffing on WLAN. I need this utility to work under Windows (any version) Does anyone know of a utility that meets this criteria. Thanks, Thomas Simmons Server Support
