Well, the idea is that AirCrack captures the packets for you and it is more of a question as to what to do with them. Here is a link to their IRC, so that you may ask and ask and ask. irc://irc.freenode.net/aircrack-ng
abc it's easy as 123.

AirCrack is part of a group of utilities including AiroDump, AirePlay, and AirCrack. First, you use AiroDump to capture packets, AirePlay can be used to stimulate the generation of packets, and once a fair amount of packets have been captured, you run AirCrack to crack the encrypted key.
