Kismet is apparently GPL, with the sources freely available. If I had better luck porting *nix code to OS/2, I'd have a go at this myself. Unfortunately, as I do it so rarely, I'll probably spend about three weeks beating it to death, not answering the phone, not doing billable work...you get the picture, after which, it probably still won't compile right. Anyone here interested in giving it a go?
It sure would be neat to have this utility available to us, especially as it appears to work with a myriad of chipsets: "any prism2 based card (Linksys, D-Link, Rangelan, etc), Cisco Aironet cards, and Orinoco based cards." In short, any card capable of reporting raw packets (rfmon support). Hey, it even does "hidden SSID decloaking!"
