Ok, I did it: it works!
But I continue to have some problems...
First, on boot time net.eth0 gives up and I must wait until timeout 
before that boot could continue.
Second net.wlan0 fails with a strange message, it says that no wlan0 are 
present on system to check hardware and driver. 
The strange thing is that after boot I had already network and that 
message:
WARNING:  net.wlan0 has started but is inactive
WARNING:  ntp-client is scheduled to start when net.wlan0 has started.
WARNING:  festival is scheduled to start when net.wlan0 has started.
WARNING:  sshd is scheduled to start when net.wlan0 has started.
WARNING:  netmount is scheduled to start when net.wlan0 has started.
WARNING:  samba is scheduled to start when net.wlan0 has started.

How can I solve it? Boot is too slow...

I found the problem! I used wpa_supplicant with this command line:
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B
- -B says to work as daemon, but it can't change keys and after my key 
expiration the system disconnect me.
Now it works fine.
Thanks,
Luigi
