Re: [ubuntu-in] how to hack wi-fi network in ubantu 10.4?
Well, cracking a wifi network without the owner's permission is not a nice thing to do . But if it is for informational purposes under a controlled environment , you can do that with kismet and aircrack . WEP keys are fairly easy to crack , but not the same for wpa .

Sorry you are on a wrong forum to ask such questions... Aren't we also feeding the hacking cracking debate . Ok so the OP asks us how to hack a wifi network using ubantu (sic) So instead of jumping the gun lets ask him what he means. Does he want to work on wifi networks or break into someone else in an unauthorised fashion. So Mr OP aka Shashi Bhushan - what do you want to do and I guess depending on your answer you will get appropriate answers. *** for those who do use wifi on crowded networks kindly check out driftnet - you will find it amusing ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in -- Yours Truly , SreeHari www.twitter.com/Sree_Hari Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.

Initially I thought it was a windows virus...and tried to clean it up

I doubt it very much, but a small script written for a cross platform can

But I still think, you should have got in Windows only, may be after Macfee
cleaned, the virus reran the program
Can you share some more details, does the FAT/NTFS drives only have
{foldername}.exe or all the drives including Home (I doubt /root will be
affected)
I'm sure its not normal for a .exe file to be created on its own in
Ubuntuwhat shall I do..I'm not using any antivirus..I've CLAMAV..but I
don't know how to use the command-line version...
You are right, no executable permissions will be given by default...
May be you can Re-Install Windows XP if none of the Antivirus Software
applications able to clean those viruses...
I know this is the the last option, but I can't see any other solutions
Others pour in your suggestions...

Re: [ubuntu-in] Upgrading directly to 10.04 LTS from 8.04 LTS
I am not sure whether u can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 directly . Anyway all I can say is that YOU CANT UPGRADE YOUR UBUNTU WITH A LIVE CD . You should download the ALTERNATE CD iso image from the site and mount it . The package manager automatically asks if you want to upgrade the distro , once the mount is done . On Sun, May 16, 2010 at 1:15 PM, Danish Lala danish.l...@gmail.com wrote: Hello! Why don't someone suggest a way to upgrade from the CD?? I have the iso file downloaded and a bootable Live Cd made of it. When you insert it when your machine is on the package manager detects it. I think the packages are detected and one can upgrade through the CD and then install the additional updates. I have not done the above procedure till now but am thinking to do so. Will be better if someone will guide me through. I run 8.04 and am want to install 10.04. Any help in this regards i sappreciated. Thank you. Ubuntu User, Danish Lala.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Two questions about 10.04 (Lucid Lynx)
I upgraded to 10.04 from karmic a few days ago . As of now , I haven't experienced anything special . Everything's as it was (at least most ) . Then , there maybe some new features , like the MeMenu , which i don't use ;) and the Ubuntu One is working fine now. I think the boot time is slightly improved (not sure ) . Overall , I don't think it is any necessary to upgrade to 10.04 unless u are curious or want to try out the latest stuff . Also , the upgrade may fail , in case you may 've to do a lot of work .

[ubuntu-in] BSNL Broadband does not work through Network Manager Applet in Ubuntu 9.10
-- Forwarded message -- oops the reply was big , so i cut it off and reply again . hope this is not a problem . the original reply is : Hi . First of all i don't see any reason why you need to configure dsl in network manager . Doesn't your modem auto connect to the internet ??? almost all modems do .. the way most of us connect to dataone (or any other adsl ) is to configure the connection in the modem itself , i.e give the usename , password and other info in the modem and tell it to always remain connected . Then in Ubuntu , the next only step remaining is to give the DNS address in the network manager app . Then , conecerning your problems wid network manager appp like no option to connect and it forgetting the new connections etc , as far as i know it has got some bugs , especially with setting static ip etc . If such anomalies persist in network manager , try WICD . I use wicd instead of network manager ..
