Agreed. Packet injection for WEP (no active clients necessary), client deauthentication for WPA (active client essential).

It certainly does not, you may want to take a look at aircrack-ng's fake authentication attack. Once fake authenticated you can then inject packets into the network using one of the various attacks (Packetforge/Fragmentation).
BackTrack is an incredible suite of tools available to the those interested in Pentesting and Forensic Analysis.

I got BackTrack 3, the final relase and USB. The final would not boot on my laptop, so i tryed the USB, same problem, it hangs on the boot screen. So i figured i would try it on my desktop PC, booted fine.
Although now, for this is where my lack on linux really shoots me in the foot. My desktop PC only has a Belkin 54g USB wireless adapter (i dont even know if this will be capable of injecting packets or whatnot) but even so, i have no idea how to configure this, so i cant even connect to my own WiFi let alone anyone elses.
I suppose i should get reading.

different window manager shouldnt make a difference..
ive never used Backtrack. it looks like KDE to me. there is a thing in System Settings to manage wifi connections.. there is probably a little applet in the kicker panel at the bottom. cant be more specific.. never got into the 3.x versions.
if you open a terminal (aka Konsole) and run ifconfig or iwconfig it will show if your wifi card has been detected and working.
eth0 is your wired connection. the name for the wifi card could be a few different things, wlan0, ath0.. there are some more i cant remember..
if you dont see anything like that you can run lspci. it should say something in there about wifi.. might say belkin specifically.. might not. if you dont see or know what youre looking at then just post it in here.. someone will be able to dissect it.

there's a miniweb series kevin rose came out with a few years back where he shows you how to do all this w/knoppix std (another linux distro from like 2004 though mebbe outdated at this point)
http://revision3.com/thebroken
believe it's episode 1 where they do the wireless network shit, there's also an amusing clip on building potato guns

X is most likely configured wrong for you computer (it's realy hard to reconfigure a USB based distro ) so you will need to work from the command line this is how to do that at the boot prompt type "linux single" this will boot in to the command line single user mode once you log in type "init 3" this is a soft restart and will start multi user mode and bring up networking in this mode you can use up to 6 command shells by hitting ctrl+F(2 to 6)and switch between them with crtl+F( 1 to 6 depending on witch shell you want to go back to ) or crtl+(left arrow or right arrow) you may be able to copy and past in this mode by dragging with the left mouse button and paste with a right click BUT not all distros have this there are 5 places to look for documentation the command man (the command you want to look up) the command info look for the command you want to look up in the menu /usr/doc/Linux-HOWTOs /usr/doc/Linux-FAQs /usr/doc/(the name of the software you want to know about ) the easiest way to explore the file system is with the command "mc"

I'm a university IT student who studies networks and protocols but have always wondered how to access/hack a WPA secure network. I know it can be done but the methods i have found require Linux and specific wireless cards.

Well I can tell you, that not all cards or more like the wireless chips on all cards support Backtrack3's airmon functions. A USB netgear WG111v2 works very well. The version 3 does not work from what I've heard. You can find the version 2 on ebay.
The most popular method of cracking WPA is de-authenticating a user from a router or access point then capturing the handshake when the user re-authenticates. Backtrack3 then uses basically a text file with a list of words and tries every one till it matches.
The makers of Backtrack3 supposedly found a way to crack WPA without the dictionary list text file.This is useful when the network admin was smart enough to use combo of numbers and letters.

how can you be an "IT student" with out already having linux installed if your serous about this part "just a thirst for knowledge." install linux then you can start quenching that thirst in ways you can't even dream of with windoze nobody but bill gates could afford the tool set that comes with all non noob distros on windoze
