Association Problems. (WPA_Supplicant 0.5.1 + Madwifi-ng20060210)

Hi,

Sorry for the confusion. I'm running madwifi r1437
with the wpa config value set to 1.  Therefore, my
setup is WPA.  It won't accept 2 (WPA2) or 3
(WPA+WPA2).  I'll upgrade soon to r1453. 

So does this mean that this bug
(http://madwifi.org/ticket/241) is closed?

Thanks for the tip,

Chad
