1 After several days of googling and searching for a solution to this I
2 am still clueless so I will pose the question to the list. At my dorm
3 I have a wireless router (WRT54G) with a WPA encryption on it. I am
4 trying to configure WPA Supplicant to connect to this router but I am
5 getting an error with it. First here is my net conf file and my
6 wpa_supplicant.conf files
7
8 modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
9 wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dwext"
10 config_eth1=( "dhcp" )
11
12 and
13
14 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
15 ctrl_interface_group=0
16 ap_scan=1
17
18 network={
19 ssid="Easy_Mac"
20 proto=WPA
21 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
22 pairwise=CCMP TKIP
23 group=CCMP TKIP WEP104 WEP40
24 psk=k8aqn2zcz497zupa
25 priority=5
26 }
27
28 Now here is the error message I am receiving
29
30 Dragon wpa_supplicant # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start

46 The wireless card I am using is the intel pro wireless 3945
47
48 0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
49 Network Connection (rev 02)
50
51 note the card works fine with no encryption or a wep encryption using iwconfig

53 Thanks
