kismet

[Richard Gliebe]

Hi there,

Hi there, 

I'm trying to run kismet-200508.r1 on a FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p7 (PC-BSD).

When i'm starting 'kismet' I get the an error: 
[...] 
# kismet 
Server options: none 
Client options: none

Waiting for server to start before starting UI... 
Will drop privs to glr (1001) gid 1001

Source 0 (ipw2200): Enabling monitor mode for radiotap_bsd_ab source
interface iwi0 channel 6... 
FATAL: iwi0: cannot set ifmedia: Device not configured 
[...] 

I've configured following source in kismet.conf: 
source=radiotap_bsd_ab,iwi0,ipw2200,6 

Here is my output from 'ifconfig iwi0': 
# ifconfig iwi0 
iwi0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
