Hello;


$ uname -rs
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2


I have setup ral0/wlan0 in /etc/rc.conf thusly:

    wlans_ral0="wlan0"
    create_args_wlan0="wlanmode sta mcastrate 54 ssid linksys channel 6"
    ifconfig_wlan0="inet 10.0.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0"


This provides a working interface but ucastrate is not being set and I 
have to manually set it after I login with:

# ifconfig wlan0 ucastrate 54


How can I effectively set ucastrate in rc.conf?


Magnanimously,

Christopher Theodore
