You're correct. That was me copying/pasting the wrong command run, sorry: jarvis# wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 103, len 128]: Device not configured Failed to initiate AP scan. ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 103, len 128]: Device not configured Failed to initiate AP scan. ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 103, len 128]: Device not configured Failed to initiate AP scan. ^CCTRL-EVENT-TERMINATING - signal 2 received ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 26, arg 0x0]: Operation not supported Failed to disable WPA in the driver. ELOOP: remaining socket: sock=4 eloop_data=0x28406140 user_data=0x2840d040 handler=0x8069f70 jarvis# _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
