@Sebkinne: P.S. no disrespect. Cheers! bkrb0i

@Sebkinne: if that were true, none of us would ever work at the root prompt, as the potential to fuck up is endless. A GUI? Maybe if you are new to UNIX/Linux. Mistakes happen, but if you are going to admin as root, you have to live with the consequences. Hmmm, I wonder what this command does?, rm -rf /* ;) Cheers! bkrb0i

Yeah, I was trying to use some leftover hardware and not to have to purchase a USB dongle. My wireless broadband spending is dedicated to my iPad device. This setup seems to work correctly in home testing, as it captures the mac addresses via karma in the pineapple console and forwards them on to the Internet via DNSspoof via whatever rules are configured. Don't know if it is stable long-term, and haven't taken this rig out to a public place to try yet. I guess it's a poor man's substitute for a USB dongle, lol. If I learn anything more that's interesting, I'll post it. Thanks. Cheers! bkrb0i

I would agree with several comments. Learn Linux (from the command line, gui's don't count ;) ) and while your at it since you are keen to learn programming, start learning something you can use immediately, as in how to write shell scripts. Highly useful, and you can use the concepts you learn (loops, variables, functions, etc) to apply to higher level languages. And while your at it, learn some vi, always handy for whipping out quick stuff without digging through some menu for a gui text editor. Infosec and hacking is a discipline that crosses networking, os, application, system, physical, etc so you pretty much have to have good knowledge across the whole gamut. There are no shortcuts, just lots of keystrokes and experiences between you and your goal. Cheers! bkrb0i

I have an older HP laptop (Compaq 6510b) running linux BT5 as my hak platform. It has built-in wireless (wlan0) and also has a PCMCIA slot. I decided to add an old linksys pcmcia wirless card I had lying around (wlan1) for a dual wireless nic setup. wlan0 uses Intel 3945ABG chipset, and wlan1 uses Broadcom. They both default to channel 3, but don't seem to be conflicting. I used the wp4 connect script written for the pineapple to setup routing from the wi-fi pineapple running on portable battery to the pcmcia wireless nic (wlan1) in my laptop, and then the second wireless nic (wlan0) is connected to the Internet. This allows me to plant the pineapple somewhere and then run karma to pass traffic from the pineapple to my laptop, and then on to the Internet with no hard-wiring anywhere. Now I'm not the smartest network guy on the planet, but this seems to work fine. Am I making it too complicated, or is there an easier way to run completely mobile (pineapple wireless <--> laptop, laptop wireless <--> Internet)??? Any suggestions? Cheers! bkrb0i

Hi folks, First post. I'm a recent purchaser of the Jasager. Still coming up to speed. I picked up a couple of toys for it today. I have been looking at different possible USB battery packs for my Mark IV. I decided to try the Sony CP-A2LS. Also picked up a Nintendo DS " ". Everything fits quite nicely, including the antenna. I'll add a few pics below. The cool thing about this battery pack is it has 2 USB ports and 2 3.6V 2000 mAh Li-Ion batteries bridged for 4000 mAh total. Still testing it, but I have powered it up with a USB stick inserted and ran some traffic through it. All the pretty LEDs work. After I get it fully charged I'll do some tests to see how long it can power my pineapple rig and post the results.Specs: Charger: In: AC 100V-240V; Out: 4.1V, 1.1A Battery: 5V, 0.5A x 2(USB ports) (I don't know if this means 1.0A when only one USB port is used) Cheers! bkrb0i
