Hi

 

I wonder if someone would be so kind as to help me?

 

I seem to have some trouble with running wpa_supplicant. Here is a dump of
the error:

 

[root at server1 wpa_supplicant-0.2.5]# wpa_supplicant -iwlan0
-c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd

Failed to initiate AP scan.

 

I've substituted the SSID and passcode.

 

My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf looks like this:

 

# allow frontend (e.g., wpa_cli) to be used by all users in 'wheel' group

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

ctrl_interface_group=users

#

# home network; allow all valid ciphers

network={

        ssid="Linksys"

        scan_ssid=1

        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

        psk="passcode"

}

 

And my .config before I did a make was:

 

CONFIG_EAP_PSK=y

CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXTENSION=y

CONFIG_DRIVER_NDISWRAPPER=y

 

I use ndiswrapper to wrap my windows drivers and it works okay without
encryption.

 

Any ideas? You help would be appreciated.

 

Regards

 

Andrew
