Simple script issue...I think
 

I'm trying to setup a script that runs when my system starts up. I've edited my /etc/rc.d/rc.local file to contain the following:

----------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
#Load ndiswrapper module

echo "Starting Ndiswrapper Driver..."
/sbin/modprobe ndiswrapper


#Setup Essid

echo "Setting up ESSID..."

iwconfig wlan0 essid "ACTIONTEC"



#Setup WEP Key if you have one

#Uncomment below for WEP

echo "Setting up KEY..."

iwconfig wlan0 key XXXX-XXXX-XX



#Setting up DHCP on wlan0

echo "Starting DHCP on wlan0 [ 10 sec timeout ]"

dhcpcd -t 10 wlan0
------------------------------------------------------

Now, when my system starts up, I get the following:

Starting Ndiswrapper Driver...
: command not found
Setting up ESSID...
: command not found
Setting up KEY...
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
". invalid argument "XXXX-XXXX-XX
: command not found:
Starting DHCP on wlan0 [ 10 sec timeout ]

I've got to be missing something simple, as when I run these commands from the command line, viola! it all works fine.

Any suggestions? Can anyone spot my problem?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

you should supply the full path of the commands you are issuing i.e.

/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 essid "ACTIONTEC"

I'll try modifying the script...but I don't think it's that, I issued the full path to modprobe and it still said that it couldn't find the command.

and it is also better to put that in separate file and run that in rc.local (with full path as mentioned before)

No dice, even w/ the full path it still says it can't find the commands.
