I'm wondering about the following, using Suse 9.2 kernel 2.6.8-24-default.

wpa_supplicant-0.2.4-5
ndiswrapper-0.10-3

the card is a Dell internal using ndiswrapper, whcih works fine using
WEP 104, but trying to set for WPA:


ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
ap_scan=1
eapol_version=1
network={
         ssid="private_wlan"
         proto=WPA
         scan_ssid=0
         key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
         group=CCMP TKIP WEP104 WEP40
         psk="nomicroslop"
         pairwise= CCMP TKIP
}


 >> wpa_supplicant -d -d -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D 
ndiswrapper


debug outout:

Authentication with 00:00:00:00:00:00 timed out.

So it looks like it correctly identified the AP, selects it, but then
after some time, report the authentication with "00:00:00:00:00:00"
timed out.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

thanks
