Hi all !
I'm trying unsuccessfully to configure on linux wpa_supplicant to access to
my AP.
The connection works if i configure my AP with WEP .
The connection works on a Windows computer with WPA .. but not on linux.
My distribution is Mandriva 2006, i installed wpa_supplicant v0.4-4 .
I give you outpuf of some commands, hope it could help :
[root] iwlist eth2 scan
Adress : 00:07:CB:56:4E:C7
ESSID : "Misou"
Protocol : IEEE 802.11bg
Mode : Master
Channel : 11
Encryption Key : on
Bit rate : 54 Mb/s
Extra : Rates (Mb/s) : 1 2 5.5 6 9 11 12 18 24 36 48 54
Quality : 88/100 Signal level = -41dBm

My wpa_supplicant.conf :
ctrl_interface= /var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group = 0
eapol_version = 1
ap_scan = 1
fast_reauth = 1
pkcs11_engine_path=/usr/lib/opensc/engine_pkcs11.so
pkcs11_module_path=/usr/lib/pkcs11/opensc-pkcs11.so
network {
ssid="Misou"
psk="xxxxxxx" <--- the psk defined in my AP config
scan_ssid = 1
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
And i'm starting wpa_supplicant with :
wpa_supplicant -i eth2 -D ipw -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd
>From the several lines of the output , i can see these following states (if
you need the whole output, i could give it to you):
State: DISCONNECTED->SCANNING

And all along the output, i can see several "ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]

Thanks a lot for your help.
