I thought they did also. :-( In fact I thought it was Dan Williams that
said that the WEXT support was coming together for madwifi but I could
be mistaken since I cannot find it in the archives.

IIRC, all I did was add something like the following to 
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

# Run the following command to add another wpa network to the system:
# wpa_passphrase YOURSSID yourpassphrase
# mtd 27 May 06

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

network={
         ssid="MY-SSID"
         psk=MY_key_generated_from_the_above_command
}

I also added the following to /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant:
INTERFACES="-iath0"
DRIVERS="-Dmadwifi"

I do not recall if that was really necessary but I looked in my working
config and it is in there.

Regards,

Tom
