Kismet / Wellenrieter Setup
« on: December 24, 2004, 02:24:49 am »
I'm a newbie to these tools so bear with me.

I am running a 5600 with the special kernel and i have both socket and ambicom wifi cards.  I am trying to get something up that will allow me to see what wireless networks are available.  From what I understand, Kismet or Wellenreiter should do the trick.

That being said, I have not had any luck getting Kismet to run, and it appears Wellenreiter is built for opie.

I get the following message when I try to startup kismet_server:

FATAL: Source 0 (Socket): Pcap support was not compiled in.

It would appear that you don't have pcap api in your "special kernel" (or so the message would seem to indicate). Is there a chance you could go back to the stock Sharp kernel and give it a try?

I have Kismet working on my SL-5500 and my SL6000, both are running stock Sharp kernels

I hope this helps,
