Hi all,<br>
im struggling all day to get wpa running on my LinuxBox/AP.<br>
Ive tried and compiled many different versions of hostapd (up to 0.6.3)
to different versions of madwifi (madwifi-ng, madwifi-0.9.4,madwifi
svn 3456).<br>
All resulting in the same error over and over<br>
First let me list my hardware<br>
<b><br>
Hardware</b><br>
Supermicro P4SGE (in 1U)<br>
Intel P4 3,2Ghz @ 2,6Ghz (166x16)<br>
2x 1GB DDR333<br>
Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]<br>
2x 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (ETH0+1)<br>
*1x Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212/AR5213 Multiprotocol
MAC/baseband processor*<br>
2x 80GB Raid 1<br>
3x 500GB Raid 5<br>
<br>
<b>Software </b><br>
Linux CentOS 4.6 (2.6.18-53.1.13-SMP)<br>
Loaded Modules<br>
wlan
wlan_ccmp,wlan_wep,wlan_scan_ap,wlan_tkip,wlan_xauth,wlan_scan_sta,ath_rate_sample,ath_pci<br>
<br>
<i><br>
<br>
Before i list my hostapd.con let me clarify up front :<br>
I do not bring wlanconfig up using ath0, but using eth2 (to keep
uniform eth nrs)</i><br>
wlanconfig eth2 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
<b>The PROBLEM</b><br>
Now for the problem itself !<br>
After starting hostapd i can see the wifi AP fine(can even see its
secure) , and even try to connect.<br>
Whenever i proceed to connect it will disconnect after a while (ia 20
sec)<br>
<br>

<br>
How can guide me through this wifi hell ?<br>
Thnx in advance for all the input <br>
