[solved] hostapd groupkey problem with madwifi

[Sebastian Weitzel]

The problem with wpa groupkey handshake introduced in december 2004 is
solved now. Please read my mail to madwifi-users mailinglist from today.

The solution is to disable encryption of EAPOL packets in madwifi. Jouni,
can you state that this is a correct solution? I couldnt find
documentation about this.

Please remove the patch which commented out setting of default groupkey in
driver_madwifi.c.

After patching madwifi and taking back the change from hostapd you will
notice that clients connected to one accesspoint can ping each other, what
they couldnt do before.

Sebastian Weitzel
