Hi all :-)

I've some problems to debug log of hostapd. On debian OS main config file
/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf has these permissions:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  236 Mar  2 20:06 hostapd.conf

so any local users can see the password :-/

with:

logger_syslog_level=2

I see:

Mar  2 16:04:27 server1 hostapd: wlan1: STA 98:0c:82:a8:e8:01 IEEE 802.11:
authenticated
Mar  2 16:04:27 server1 hostapd: wlan1: STA 98:0c:82:a8:e8:01 IEEE 802.11:

Mar  2 16:04:27 server1 hostapd: wlan1: STA 98:0c:82:a8:e8:01 WPA:

Mar  2 16:04:51 server1 hostapd: wlan1: STA 98:0c:82:a8:e8:01 IEEE 802.11:
deauthenticated due to inactivity

does "RADIUS: starting accounting session 54D75B33-00000037" and "WPA:
pairwise key handshake completed (RSN)" mean a client successfully
autheticated inside my lan? (I wish no) because no one of my clients has
that mac address :-/
