Contents of README:README for wpa_supplicant REQUIREMENTS Kernel driver for your wireless card, e.g. ndiswrapper or ipw2100. See the wpa_supplicant homepage for supported drivers. PRE-INSTALL POST-INSTALL 1. Create a network setup for wpa_supplicant: wpa_passphrase <ssid> <your_secret> >> /etc/wpa.conf See the sample configuration file wpa_supplicant.conf in the sources for a complete description of the available options for wpa_supplicant. 2. Change your wlan start script to use wpa_supplicant. Following an example for the centrino ipw2100 driver, no need to do anything with iwconfig: /sbin/modprobe ipw2100 /sbin/ifconfig eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.xxx /sbin/route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Bw -Dwext -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa.conf Note: the above configuration makes use of the generic wext wpa_supplicant driver (Linux wireless extensions), which is the preferred nowadays. Use this driver for ndiswrapper as well. PRECAUTION |
