    Honeypot...
    You should have a look at Wireless honeypot. For a good start:
    http://www.honeyd.org/configuration.php

    You can also find some interesting information on securityfocus web
    site:
    http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1761

    Using honeyd on Linux, you can do almost whatever you want to simulate
    a Wireless AP, and trick Wifi client.

    Cheers,
