Hi

  Hostap version 0.6.3
  Madwifi 0.9.4

  I did the following steps.


*1. Creating wireless vap*
------------------------

a. wlanconfig wlan0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
b. ifconfig wlan0 up

*Hostapd.conf*

interface=wlan0
ssid=debawep
macaddr_acl=0
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=
debug=2
channel=11
max_num_sta=254
ap_max_inactivity=300
beacon_int=100
hw_mode=g
country_code=US
auth_algs=1
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
wep_default_key=0
wep_key0=2345678901
wep_key1="vwxyz"
wep_key2=".2.4.6.8.0.23"
wep_key3=0102030405060708090a0b0c0d


*
hostapd -B /etc/hostapd.conf

*I am able to connect from a windows xp machine.  The machine is getting
associated but not getting ip address.
I gave static ip address to the windows machine and tried to ping but that
is also not working.



Can anyone tell what is the problem.

Thanks and in advance for your help.

Regards
Deba
