Hak5 made the MKVIs (Nano / Tetra) "end of life" as of 18DEC20. I guess it's unlikely you are going to get a fix.

Now that the Pineapple VII is out can we expect any further firmware upgrades / bug fixes for the VI models, or are they now just "legacy" kit?

If you want something to learn I'd suggest reading up on Criminal Trespass (US) or whatever the similar laws are in your area.

No Kali but ... https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cosmo-communicator#/ Seem to have drifted a bit "off topic" now.

I can honestly say I never expected to see the words "android", "phone" and "developing websites" used in the same sentence like this... It's got the same feel as "blindfold", "boxing gloves" and "brain surgery".

OK. Good point, well made! I hang my head in shame for ever doubting you and promise to short 240v across my RAM chips by way of punishment!!!

And also when you actually typed it into crunch on your Asus machine? 😀 TBH I have made very similar errors many many times. One day I will remember that my computers have a nasty habit of doing exactly what I tell them to do, not what I meant them to do. Pity that's unlikely to be today, or tomorrow or ...

32^5*10 = 335544320

crunch 12 12 "0987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUV" -t 0MGSM2%@@@@@ I don't know crunch but what happened to W X Y and Z?

@i8igmac The way I have always understood it with permutations (where repetition is allowed) you just multiply by the numer of options you have each time. So for the example you mentioned it would be: 10*36*36*36*36*36 which, as it's all multiplication, is the same as 36^5*10 as you suggest So say you were trying to crack a simple password hash and knew that: every password issued was 5 characters long for some reason had the specific pattern, 0-9, 0-9, a-z, A-Z, symbol - same as hashcat's ?s or <space>!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~, and, repetitions were allowed the permutations would be 10*10*26*26*33

if its 36 possibles over 5 places is it not 36^5 rather than 5^36? if so it would take the 1080ti you quote just under 105 seconds to try the lot.

@psydT0ne Spooky, I was just about to ask this. They'll soon have to drop the "weekly dose of technolust" bit... ?

I am having trouble seeing what you are trying to do. You have gone to a VPS provider and got yourself a VPS and then installed the Kali toolset on it You have then run a wireless monitoring tool and the tool asked for monitoring mode on a wifi adapter You have found that VPS does not have access to a wifi adapter You are then trying on find a way to add a hardware device to a VPS You have tried to add a wifi hardware device by using "apt-get" and it hasn't worked So you want to sniff the wifi traffic in the data centre of the company that provides your VPS?

Just don't try it. It's pretty much certain that wherever you are on the planet, accessing someone else's account without their consent or installing "spying software" without any legal authority (or being Microsoft / Facebook / Google) will be against the law. No-one here should really help you with that. Anyone even considering illegal activity has to be very careful how they go about things and how they may be caught out; like the email alert you mention. They must also consider any traces they leave even as they prepare their action. Take your above post for instance. If you are a careful person even at this early stage you are using a one-off account name (Skier780) just for this thread. This is because your post (above) will probably get captured by Google at some point. So (assuming you are not using a one-time name and your post is not an attempt to induce sympathy to get help to do something else) your girlfriend gets suspicious because you seem to know too much. She tries to find anything you may have posted online, she types in the name you often use into Google and "Boom!"; your post on the Hak5 forum. After that people in uniform get an urge to talk to you. You end up in court. Of course I bet the most likely way something like this is discovered is the pair of you have a full-on argument. She says, "No I didn't!" and, all angry, you shout as loud as you can, "Yes you did!, I hacked your Snapchat account!!!". Once again people in uniform get an urge to talk to you. You end up in court. <advice style="Dear Abby";> During difficult times people can make quick and very bad decisions and find their life FUBAR. Many years ago a telecoms company had adverts with the tagline, "It's good to talk". Sage words. </advice>

With reference to my posting above, I thought I would mention (just this once) that today's (31OCT18) "free learning" non-DRM PDF eBook at Packt Publishing is Kali Linux Cookbook - Second Edition (2017). The advertised price on Amazon today for the Kindle version is £23.39 GBP / $29.92 USD. The book changes to something else at midnight.
