I have installed and configured my wirelss network with MadWifi and |
2 |
wpa_supllicant. However it is unencrypted. What do I have to do to setup |
3 |
WPA encryption? I have followed this |
4 |
(http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Building_a_Wireless_Access_Point#WPA_Encryption) |
5 |
but when I run... |
6 |
|
7 |
hostapd -dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf |
8 |
|
9 |
I get this... |
10 |
|
11 |
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf |
12 |
madwifi_set_iface_flags: dev_up=0 |
13 |
Using interface ath0 with hwaddr 00:19:5b:80:f2:d8 and ssid 'CarsonNet' |
14 |
Flushing old station entries |
15 |
madwifi_sta_deauth: addr=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff reason_code=3 |
16 |
ioctl[unknown???]: Invalid argument |
17 |
Could not connect to kernel driver. |
18 |
Deauthenticate all stations |
19 |
rmdir[ctrl_interface]: No such file or directory |
20 |
madwifi_set_privacy: enabled=0 |
21 |
madwifi_set_iface_flags: dev_up=0 |
22 |
|
23 |
When I run this... |
24 |
|
25 |
/etc/init.d/hostapd start |
26 |
|
27 |
I get this... |
28 |
|
29 |
* Starting hostapd ... |
30 |
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf |
31 |
Using interface ath0 with hwaddr 00:19:5b:80:f2:d8 and ssid 'CarsonNet' |
32 |

33 |

36 |
rmdir[ctrl_interface]: No such file or directory |
37 |
[ !! ] |

|

|
40 |
So what does this mean? |
41 |
|
42 |
ioctl[unknown???]: Invalid argument |
43 |
|
44 |
I can't get hostapd to startup until this is fixed. |
