Sound good. a comment: you Should add -p option to your install commande from %install stage to keep timestamp to the file.
There is already version 4.0 available: http://www.personalwireless.org/tools/cowpatty/ You can use my spec if you want: http://www-users.kawo2.rwth-aachen.de/~tmaas/fedora/cowpatty.spec http://www-users.kawo2.rwth-aachen.de/~tmaas/fedora/repo/cowpatty-4.0-1.src.rpm Do you know aircrack-ng? It seems to be more promising than cowpatty for WPA auditing, but it did not really use cowpatty, because its README begins with "Right off the bat, this code isn't very useful.". The "rainbow tables" for cowpatty will be supported by aircrack-ng, too. Btw. there is a special url for sourceforge downloads, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SourceURL#head-e27982f18a3bfd26b5b6ecbee113d2d8f3f006f2 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
Ah, btw. Xavier, if you are officially rewiewing this package, you should set the fedora-review flag to ? (see below)
Hi Till, After had a quick look on your spec file, it seems to be more complete for the updated release (4.0) that you propose. Except that, the contents of %description could be more interesting if it were not empty ;-). i'll check out the both.
kwizrat: ping ? Till: ping ? kwizart, can you check till's package to propose something or are you agree to make a full review of updated till's package ?
s/are you/do you
As state by Till, this package isn't very usefull! aircrack-ng seems better... I will let Till decide weither to continue the review with the spec of him or close the bug ... Sorry for the late answear...
(In reply to comment #7) > As state by Till, this package isn't very usefull! aircrack-ng seems better... > I will let Till decide weither to continue the review with the spec of him > or close the bug ... I never used cowpatty, because after I compiled it, I read the statement from the author, that it is not very useful. Currently, the only interesting (unique) feature of cowpatty, is that there are some precalculated hashes for wpa, that cannot be used aircrack-ng, yet. So if you have the time to test it, check how well these hashes http://www.renderlab.net/projects/WPA-tables/ work. If this works fine and the support is not included in aircrack-ng, yet (ticket: http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/ticket/23), then imho fedora would benefit from cowpatty.
when running genpmk with cowpatty 4.0 : *** buffer overflow detected ***: genpmk terminated This seems not to be usable yet...
Do you think we can close this as wontfix?
kwizart, Till: so no interest in getting this across the line from either of you ? Let me know because I am interested. The 4.3 release [March 20 2008] is not on sf.net from WICT, but: http://www.willhackforsushi.com/Cowpatty.html Found some howto docs and rainbow tables torrents in: http://www.wirelessdefence.org/Contents/coWPAttyMain.htm and http://www.renderlab.net/projects/WPA-tables/
As soon as it fix the *** buffer overflow detected ***: genpmk terminated Then i'm OK. please submit another review request (you can link it there) - I'm closing this one (not interested anymore).
Hey folks i have packaged version 4.6 , seems like buffer overflow is fixed now. I hav created a review request at #581161
