It's legal. What you do *after* you find an AP might not be. -- Joey Kelly < Minister of the Gospel | Linux Consultant > http://joeykelly.net GPG key fingerprint = 8F11 D859 81A6 DE8C 5429 4A07 7146 1AFD 5C41 161E "I may have invented it, but Bill made it famous." --- David Bradley, the IBM employee that invented CTRL-ALT-DEL -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Portscanning, if that's all you do (scan the host, but don't later attempt anything illegal based on the results of your scan) IS legal. This was decided some time ago. -- Joey Kelly < Minister of the Gospel | Linux Consultant > http://joeykelly.net GPG key fingerprint = 8F11 D859 81A6 DE8C 5429 4A07 7146 1AFD 5C41 161E "I may have invented it, but Bill made it famous." --- David Bradley, the IBM employee that invented CTRL-ALT-DEL -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I run wistumbler on my NetBSD laptop, and it works great. I've never used netstumbler, but I imagine that it does about the same thing (list APs it finds, gives details about each, etc.). -- Joey Kelly < Minister of the Gospel | Linux Consultant > http://joeykelly.net GPG key fingerprint = 8F11 D859 81A6 DE8C 5429 4A07 7146 1AFD 5C41 161E "I may have invented it, but Bill made it famous." --- David Bradley, the IBM employee that invented CTRL-ALT-DEL -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
