then we do subsequent configuration via the control interface. If you want to do
this without loading a driver, you might need to start the supplicant with the
-w option, but IIRC this option will be going away in a future

out any interface details<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hi all,<BR><BR>I am searching for a solution "How to start
wpa_supplicant in daemon mode with out giving any configuration and interface
options, so that I can give the detials by wpa_cli when ever I required to
connect." <BR><BR>I have two interfaces eth0 and wlan0, some times I use
eth0 and some times wlan0 for connectivity. So what I am thinking is, I
will start wpa_supplicant as a startup script by without giving any interface,
username and password deatils. After booting up, depending upon my requirement
I will pass the details to wpa_supplicant daemon by wpa_cli. <BR><BR>Can any
tell me, is this works or not?<BR><BR>Thanks and
regards,<BR>Sukumar<BR><BR>______________________________________________________________________<BR>DSP
