Ok, well. Let's try something. > wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /var/lib/wicd/configurations/001310d30b2a -D > wext iwconfig wlan0 essid -- Eyrie > iwconfig wlan0 channel 3 > iwconfig wlan0 ap 00:13:10:D3:0B:2A > /sbin/dhclient -cf /var/lib/wicd/dhclient.conf wlan0 What happens if you add -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.wlan0.leases to the last command? Does it get a lease? OTOH, if you move dhclient.wlan0.leases out of the way, or empty it, does "ifup wlan0" still work? Cluelessly, David -- . ''`.
