the ifcfg that is used
Yes, this is intended. wpa_supplicant also handles non-WPA connections. If you don't want to use wpa_supplicant, add PREFER_WPA_SUPPLICANT='no' to your interface configuration file. But the message about unsupported key length is strange, could you check whether it still occurs with the sysconfig package from stable? i did update. the message does not appear anymore. But i will have to test at home if it is fixed now. iwconfig still reports Encryption key: off ... is that ok? I think so. The correct values in iwconfig output should appear as soon as you are associated. was fixed by the sysconfig update. thanks! |
I have setup my WLAN card to use WEP with a 128 bit key, hash from a passhrase. However, ifup starts WPA supplicant. # ifup ath0 ath0 device: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01) ath0 configuration: wlan-id-00:09:5b:ee:1d:8b Unsupported key length 128 in hash mode ath0 starting wpa_supplicant Starting DHCP Client Daemon on ath0... . . . . . no IP address yet... backgrounding. #
