 Hi,
 I am using madwifi  wpa_supplicant. after installing them and

 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dmadwifi' and 'dhcpcd ath0'. However, my
 problem is how to make them start automatically when the system boot?
 It seems that I have to write something in net.ath0 or /etc/init.d/net ...
 but how? I am really new to linux. thanks

Update /etc/conf.d/net with something like the following
modules=( wpa_supplicant )
wpa_supplicant_wlan0=-Dndiswrapper
wpa_timeout_wlan0=30

Then set the wpa_supplicant configuration options in
/etc/conf.d/wpa_supplicant
