Hello,
What is the appropriate way to start wpa_supplicant as the machine boots up?
I seem to have everything setup properly. But I must always:
# wpa_supplicant -i ath0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
# dhclient ath0
...as root, in order to get my wireless card up and running.
I would assume there is an rc.conf setting I am missing... just cant
seem to find it.
Was using:
ifconfig_ath0="DHCP"
in my rc.conf before setting up wpa_supplicant. But that causes an
infinite loop now.
I am running 6.0-BETA1 i386 as of the 23rd. I have a mini-PCI atheros
card and it is not removable. Therefore no attach/detach events.
Thanks.
