Hi all,
Injection works fine under Linux with hostap module :-D
In fact, I started to code a new mode, but after some experiments with
hostap, I am not sure it is really useful as you can prepare the device
to send frames using iwpriv and iwconfig only. I dont think it is the
role of libnet to create a device (which is required with hostap to
inject packets). Hence, I prefer to rest on outside scripts (a short one
is provided in sample/hostap.sh).
However, it only supports 802.11b, with no encryption. I am working on
these two stuff.
About encryption, I was thinking to add a new structure (something
called libnet_transform_t) which would be a transformer for a packet. A
transformer could be either encryption, digest or compression. Having
such a general structure would let us easily any needed algorithm, like
those supported for 802.11, but also IPSec for instance.
Enjoy,

PS: for those who would like to go to CanSecWest/Core 05, my magazine
(called MISC) have started a contest: write an article (3500-4000
words), and the best one will be published and its author will go to
Vancouver.
