Hello, I'm stuck with a problem. I've got a PCI WiFi card (using the rt61 chip) in a machine runing SuSE 9.3.
I've managed to instal the driver and configure the /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/rt61sta.dat file - although I may have made some mistake there, teh docs are not very clear. The point is: interface ra0 is there. However, if I do an iwconfig, I get this: RT61 Wireless ESSID "" (no access point) ... blablabla... So I have no connection. The ssid name is given both in the rt61sta.dat file and in Yast, although YAST insists on configuring wlan0... Basically, getting online is not difficult: "iwconfig ra0 essid any", and everything works. The problem is that this machine is meant to be installed in a place where other people can use it. They will *not* be Linux specialists and I do *not* want to give away the root password, so I have to find a way to run this command (or anything that brings the same result) at boot. I tried a command in boot.local, but it fails because device is "down". I also tried a script in /etc/rc.d/rcS.d but to no avail. Maybe someone who knows better than I do has an idea. Is it possible to give users the right to execulte just one command (iwconfig)?
