Hello @misc:
I have a clean install of OpenBSD 4.5 (i386) on a Soekris 4501. I'm
trying to setup it up as a wireless client. My access point is a
Linksys WRT54G with the latest firmware. Encryption is handled with
WPA2 (TKIP + AES) and a pre-shared ASCII key. I cannot get the
OpenBSD system to associate with the access point.
my /etc/hostname.ral0:
dhcp NONE NONE NONE nwid my_ap wpa wpaprotos wpa2 wpapsk \
$(wpa-psk my_ap "SECRET")
When I run 'sh /etc/netstart' I get this error:
ifconfig: wpapsk: bad pre-shared key length
ral0: no link ............. sleeping
ifconfig: wpa-psk blahrg "SECRET": bad value
Does anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? The configuration
was straight out of the manfile. Is there anyway to sniff the
wireless traffic so I can figure out what part of the association is
failing? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
-K
