    Backtrack 4 VMware help

    Hello everyone,
    I have vmware 6 on my laptop, and I want to install Backtrack 4. I have a wireless card intel (R) WiFi Link 100 BGN and I ask myself if it is possible to use the card internal laptop since backtrack, because by doing a search on the internet I read that c was not possible because this card is internal and is used by the laptop and had to buy a USB wifi card. Please help me out.!!

    You should know that the command airmon-ng is a command to hack WEP, WPA etc. Also you do not give us much information here to help. Already, what is your configuration? wireless / ethernet? card pci / pcmcia / usb? If you followed a procedure for any attempt to operate the network?? I think that you should check the pci network card. under vmware "network ADAPTER >> Virtual network >> virtual host >> VMnel0 >> network card. Hope doing that will help you.

    There are two commands to type to turn and the network, and Network Manager :
    Code:
     / Etc / init.d / networking start
     / Etc / init.d NetworkManager start
    If after AC AC does not work, see if your router / dhcp box is in, or if the machines have a fixed IP, if using dhcp, you can always try the following :
    Code:
    dhclient eth0
    and if you're fixed ip, you just have to config all this by manually.

    BackTrack is a GNU / Linux recognized by professionals as comprehensive and effective in analyzing network and penetration testing. A basic understanding of Unix / Linux and network technology is required in order to understand some items. However, it seems that your knowledge of linux am limited. I can advise you to begin to familiarize yourself with Ubuntu to be able to attack then backtrack.
    Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core @ ~2.2 GHz
    Memory: 1024MB RAM

    Standard Installation without swap. To customize.
    • Boot from the live cd user = root
    • password = toor

    Then type start. It opens a shell (the second icon in the lower left).
