What is the command for aircrack-ng to generate the pcap file with the handshake?

(For those curious mac users, you can simply type "brew install aircrack-ng")

That will install 'aircrack-ng', which can crack WEP ivs packets or a WPA/2 handshake.

You will need airodump-ng to actually capture the handshake. I don't think the entire aircrack suite has been ported in homebrew.

Note that (I think) Apple typically uses Broadcomm wireless chips, which are not the best choice for this sort of thing.

So far I have been using Macstumbler in passive mode, but it takes a long time. So far I have only hacked my own test 12345 password

Many modern MacBooks use atheros chips, which work perfectly.
