    If you have not done so already, read the README file and the FAQ file. Additional
    documentation is in the /usr/share/docs/ directory.  You MUST edit
    /etc/kismet/kismet.conf and configure Kismet for your system, or it will NOT run
    properly!
    
    Kismet has been installed with a SUID ROOT CAPTURE HELPER executeable by
    users in the group 'kismet'.  This WILL ALLOW USERS IN THIS GROUP
    TO ALTER YOUR NETWORK INTERFACE STATES, but is more secure than running
    all of Kismet as root.  ONLY users in this group will be able to
    run Kismet and capture from physical network devices.
    
    Use 'sudo usermod -a -G kismet foouser' to add yourself to the kismet
    group. You will need to log out and back in before your user will have access.
    Check the output of the 'groups' command to make sure your user has the proper group!
