If you don't already have the correct passcode, there -s a command-line option, *--genpass*, that will calculate it for you. At least this way, the software will print the SSID for which you've asked it to generate a code back to you, and you're likely to notice if it's not actually yours. Hopefully this prevents me from encouraging people to use SSIDs which should be assigned to other stations. You can generate a passcode like this:
