<div>Hi Dan,</div>
<div> </div>
<div> For my question about,</div>
<div>wpa supplicant's support for Adhoc network creation with the given channel and Adhoc connection? , you have mentioned that wpa sipplicant 0.6.x versions has support for it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As I am using wpa supplicant 0.5.7 ported for marvell 8686, it becomes difficult for me to go for 0.6.x. I would like to know me changing wpa supplicant 0.5.7 to support adhoc network creation and adhoc connection, whether its going to take long time. whether its going to be a very big change?
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you can tell me which all files/functions I have to refer in wpa supplicant 0.6.0 or 0.6.1 for adhoc. then I think I will be able modify 0.5.7 to support adhoc connection. Will you please help me in this.</div>
