inputting WPA password with wicd-curses

cmccullough · 01-17-2010, 05:08 PM

I'm reviving an aging Thinkpad X22 by installing Debian and running only in text mode. I've installed wicd to control the wireless network connections. When I run wicd-curses from the cli, it finds the network and I'm able to obtain an IP address. The wireless ESSID that I'm connecting to is encrypted with WPA. I can't seem to figure out how to input the encryption password so I can connect. Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks for the help!
