hello all,<br><br>i am trying to setup an environment where i control access to the network. i have set up an local area network. with a radius server, and a linux node i have to run wpasupplicant client to pass authentication. i am using ubuntu gusty, where network manager takes control of everything... everything works fine.... but i wanted to set (test) my own wpa supplicant, so i disabled the wpa_supplicant. i created a wpa_supplicant conf file with following details<br><br>network={<br>ssid="testnet"<br>proto=WPA<br>key_mgmt=WPA-PSK<br>psk=e7172cf145d9cb8d57bf0a06e2317c80e980a8311e7ac807315703299413debb<br>}<br><br>and my output when i run the wpa_supplicant<br>jennianand@jennianand:~$ sudo wpa_supplicant -w -Dndiswrapper -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd<br>Initializing interface 'wlan0' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' driver 'ndiswrapper' ctrl_interface 'N/A' bridge 'N/A'<br>Configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' ->
