Using HostAP in WPA mode.

[Takehiro Suzuki]

Hi,

This is my first post to this mailing list. 

Now, I am having trouble with connecting STA(wpa_supplicant) to HostAP in 
WPA mode(WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS). 

Please tell me the information to connect STA and HostAP in WPA mode!


The following is the action in WPA-RADIUS(Autnetication Type is EAP-TLS).
STA associated to HostAP and sent a "EAPOL START" frame to HostAP.
HostAP didn't react EAPOL START frame from STA.(Orginally, HostAP should send Req-Identity to STA.)
As a result, EAP Authentication became time-out and STA deassociated from HostAP finally.

On the other hand, I can connect STA(wpa_supplicant) to the general AP(NEC) in 
WPA mode(WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS). I think STA(wpa_supplicant)'s configuration is right. 

The details of setting are as follow.

?STA : Linux 2.4.28 + madwifi(ver1.29) + wpa_supplicant(Ver0.3.8)
?AP  : Linux 2.4.26 + madwifi(ver1.29) + hostapd(Ver0.3.7)

hostapd.conf (? is used for security.)
