Hi
The problem I'm having is spoofing a mac address on an Atheros based
wireless card with the madwifi-ng drivers. I've brought this up on the
wifi-sec mailing list and other people agree with me that it doesn't
work and suggested trying a bsd. So I thought I'd ask on this list
about general pen-testing with bsd. From what I know most tools seem
to be there, in most cases with newer version than either gentoo or
ubuntu so that is a plus point, I was wondering if there were any
negative points.
