Thanks! I feel that if we are not "filling in these fields" then they really should have appropriate values at least, i.e. not random values like (the speed/signal_strength) or an empty bssid (NULL would be better), etc. At least this way we can test for things. But I suppose, in reality, if it was clearly documented that in the case of the NEED_KEY event what is expected to be filled in then it would be simpler - or maybe a suitable flag mechanism to state what fields are valid...? But I'd be happy enough if the documentation (libnwam.h?) stated what is expected to be valid. So, is it correct to say that the only valid field is the essid here? -- Configure bugmail: http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
