=Mo Kali Mo Problems=

==Wireless==

As usual, my adventure with Kali began with wireless debugging. This time, the method to raise the wireless cards online had changed.

[[Kali 2.0/Wireless Debugging]]

==Wireless Packet Injection Test==

I had to go through the packet injection testing again, and between Kali 1 and Kali 2 something changed that broke the ability of one wireless card to do packet injection.

[[Aircrack/Packet Injection Testing]]

==WPA Cracking==

Next, I was trying to revisit [[Aircrack/WPA Cracking]] without success. I had not backed up my pcap files, and had lost the ones I used in my example, so I was starting from scratch to reproduce my examples with my home network. 

At this point I was scratching my head.

==Problems with John==

I also ran into problems with [[Aircrack and John the Ripper]], again because something had changed between Kali 1 and Kali 2, and the system version of John the Ripper could no longer send password guesses to stdout.

=Solutions=

Don't worry, we found some solutions.

==Wireless Solutions==

The page with wireless debugging notes has a solution to the wireless problems, which is actually a more convenient way to bring devices off and online:

<pre>
$ ifconfig wlan0 stop
$ macchanger -r wlan0 # optional
$ iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
$ ifconfig wlan0 start
</pre>

==Packet Injection Solutions==

The solution to the wireless card that could no longer do packet injection was: recycle. It works for wireless - just not for packet injection.

Got a TP Link wireless card, since every team at the Defcon 23 Wireless Capture the Flag had at least one.

==John Solutions==

Wasn't until tomorrow that I would figure out the problem with John. The solution? Install my own John the Ripper from source!
