I have a laptop with an 802.11b card. When I am in the vicinity of an access point (AP) I can see the AP's details by running "iwlist IFACE scan". However, in order to associate to APs with encryption switched on I need to set the encryption key using "iwconfig IFACE enc KEY".
My question is: has someone written a utility that will do this automatically -- a utility that will set the encryption key according to the access points that show up in the scan? I have searched the web for a while and what I find are sniffing and cracking programs. That is not what I am looking for. I am not interesting in collecting packets and I know the encryption keys I need to access these networks. I just want a program that will automate the process of association. I could write this program myself. In its simplest form it can be done in one line of shell script. However, making the program work reliably would take more work. I would like to know if anyone has already done this work for me. TIA for any tips you can provide. -- Thomas Hood -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
