Cannot generate PMKID.txt - Bully0423 - 02-03-2019

I need help generating a PMKID.txt file. When I run this command "hcxpcaptool -z PMKID.txt -o hcxdump.hccapx -E wordlist -I identitylist -U usernamelist -P PMKlist -T trafficlist *.pcapng" no PMKID.txt file is generated. I need help , thanks.

If you didn't captured a valid PMKID, your file PMKID.txt (-z) remains empty. The same applies for your file hcxdump.hccapx (-o) if you didn't captured a valid handshake.

When I ran this command "hcxdumptool -i wlan2 -o hcxdump.pcapng --enable-status=3" it showed it found PKIDs, handshakes, etc. It even created hcxdump.pcapng file. So I don't understand why I'm having this issue.

Please post the output of:
$ hcxpcaptool -V hcxdump.pcapng

output (from hcxdumptool and hcxpcaptool) should look like this one here:

I'm sorry, I feel so dumb 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️. When the hcxdump file was created on hcxdumptool folder I don't move it to hcxtools folder, therefore it wasn't being detected by the command. I'm sorry, and thank you for the quick response. This thread and be closed. Thanks again.

No problem - but your post reminds me to update hcxtools thread.


RE: Cannot generate PMKID.txt - ZerBea - 02-03-2019

By latest hcxtools commit,
https://github.com/ZerBea/hcxtools/commit/a55e58ecbf328fe5f140d892f16c9b72fa4e1401

now, hcxpcaptool will show a warning if no captures are loaded:
$ hcxpcaptool -z PMKID.16800 -o eapol.hccapx *.pcapng

warning: no capture file loaded
