Hi Aneesh, I've had the same problem with setting up Leaf as WAP. You've followed the doc that Martin so generously provided? It was a huge help for me, but for some reason there was a gap between finishing those steps and connecting to my shiny new Soekris. For me, I think it was a knowledge gap between what is merely routine for experts and my decidedly ,uh network-challenged condition. At any rate, I did figure it out eventually, and you will too- you're that close.
One of the things I noticed was hostapd either wasn't running or wasn't sourcing that hostapd.conf file I spent so long modifying. 'iwconfig' didn't reflect the changes I'd made in ssid, for example. 'ps' didn't show hostapd running either. You seem to have those bases covered. My next brick-upside-the-head-moment^H^H^H hurdle was the realization that the nic in my VAIO would not support WPA, so make sure you're compatible on that end. Sorry to wait so long to post so little on this thread. I'm happy to cut-n-paste any logs or confs you might find useful, and again, thanks to Martin, and all the whole Leaf crew, past and present -Ben [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Send leaf-user mailing list submissions to > leaf-user@lists.sourceforge.net > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of leaf-user digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
