Drew, I read about this in my Google searches. I have wpa_supplicant installed on my Dell running Slackware-current; I'll check Pamela's Toshiba for that and get it set up if it's not there. I'll read more about wpa_supplicant for the answer to this question: if I set the ssid and passphrase in there for the local wireless AP, what happens when I try to access other wireless APs from hotels, coffee shops, etc.? Are those all set with no protection so wpa_supplicant is never invoked?
