RE: airport monitor mode/ ben8



Oliver, all-

I'm also running ben8 and trying to get Kismet and Airsnort running, so I'd
be interested in hearing of any progress that you make.

I've applied both patches (and can see monitor listed when I "iwpriv eth1"),
and Kismet runs okay, and I can execute the command 

iwpriv eth1 monitor 2 11 (an example configuration I saw)

with no problems, but when I kick off Airsnort and tell it to start
sniffing, I get the error

"Could not set promiscuous mode".

What am I missing?

Mark

It's not included; but if you apply both the patches:
http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinoco-0.11b-patch.diff
http://www.swieskowski.net/code/wifi/orinoco-0.11b-airport.diff
then it should work fine.
