How to Crack WPA/WPA2   http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=cracking_wpa  
Ubuntu WEP specific command line example

This lab shows how to observe, actively bruteforce or passively obtain WPA/WPA2 
access keys in an open network.  

WARNING: Key cracking is
considered a breech of private property, do not use this practical
example to connect to public networks as another or without ethical intentions 
in your own lab networks; this lab is presented
for the purposes of education to ellucidate the limitations of current security 
tools, and educate users about TRUST.  

Defenses:  Wireless security, is a "trust" model.  Like wired network 
connections, shared networking presents some risk; i.e. if you can connect, you 
are sharing packets.  An ICA server/cisco or access point with a changing key 
is the only defense against these tactics.  The key would change at or around 
the same time that cracking would take.  Even with WPA keys, Mac Address 
connection controls are best deployed to provide added security in wireless 
networks.
