Public bug reported:
My problem : the wpa-* keywords into /etc/network/interfaces seem not to
work in my feisty.
Details :
I have tried several possible configuration to configure WPA connection into my
Kubuntu feisty :
into /etc/network/interfaces :
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-ssid "******"
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-psk ******
nothing works (no connexion and wpa_supplicant doesn't started) when I restart
my computer or sudo /etc/init.d/network restart or sudo ifdown eth1 && ifup eth1
Moreover, I have no messages with wpa_supplicant keyword when I launch ifup eth1
Same result with :
/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid="xxxxxxx"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk=xxxxxxxxxx
}
/etc/network/interfaces :
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
wpa-driver wext
Finally, the only thing that works with my computer :
/etc/default/wpasupplicant
ENABLED=1
OPTIONS="-w -Dwext -ieth1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf"
I have added wpa_supplicant daemon into the kubuntu starting.
I need to launch sudo dhclient eth1 after the starting.
I have tried to connect with knetworkmanager, but it doesn't work too.
Do you need additional informations ?
Do you have an idea why my kubuntu doesn't work correctly with WPA ?
Thanks you very much for your response.
