Your 'way' should be to NOT try to sniff anyones passwords, from ANYWHERE. Read the LQ Rules about asking for hacking/cracking information.
Leeching credentials, certainly without thorough explanation and valid reason why, almost always isn't a SFLQ (Safe Fore LinuxQuestions.org) question. Especially if you're sharing the connection. So please tell me in detail what you're after. Please note that if you can't then I'll be forced to close this thread for potential LQ Rules violation so do make an effort.
