    Question Problems with crunch and aircrack-ng

    Hey guys,

    I have been experimenting with Kali 2, and trying to crack my own wifi.
    I have used airodump-ng to capture handshake but having problems cracking the password using aircrack.
    I have searched the internet to try and solve the problem but since I don't even know what the problem is other than that aircrack wont even start trying passwords I decided to post here to see if I can get some help.

    this is what happens:

    root@KTest:~# crunch 0 25 abcdefghiklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY Z | aircrack-ng -w - --bssid 0C:F8:93:46:B3:40 -w testfile*.cap
    Crunch will now generate the following amount of data: 400214617560680051 bytes
    381674401817 MB
    372728908 GB
    363993 TB
    355 PB
    Crunch will now generate the following number of lines: 6192586887512427924
    Opening testfile-02.cap
    Opening testfile-03.cap
    Opening testfile-04.cap
    Opening testfile-05.cap
    Opening testfile-06.cap
    Opening testfile-07.cap
    Reading packets, please wait...

    Aircrack-ng 1.2 rc2
    Passphrase not in dictionary

    0






















    Quitting aircrack-ng...
    root@KTest:~#


    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Base on your code, you had two "w" should of be aircrack-ng --bssid 0C:F8:93:46:B3:40 -w testfile*.cap
    Also it if this is a WPA, the minimum should be 8, because you have it zero that will make it longer.
    Where is your your .cap file? if it's in root's dir.

    crunch 8 25 abcdefghiklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY Z | aircrack-ng /root/testfile*.cap --bssid 0C:F8:93:46:B3:40 -w

    and maybe put the "Z" close to the "Y"

    BY the way, this is a totally insane command. that's 52⁸ + 52⁹ + 52¹⁰ etc... untill 52²⁵ possibilities

    highlighted by the fact it intends to generate 355 Petabytes of data, worth of combinations....

    Data storage system: In August 2011, IBM was reported to have built the largest storage array ever, with a capacity of 120 petabytes.[7]
