Hi kkmic, wpa_supplicant can also authenticate with wep encryption or with none - theres a GUI you can use or you can directly edit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, the configuration required in /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf is something like this:
WLAN_WPA[4]="wpa_supplicant" WLAN_WPA_OPTS[4]="-dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf" the -dwext is driver=wext -iwlan0 is interface=wlano and -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf is config=/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf the GUI tool is call wpa_gui, I'm pretty sure its either in slackware or in the slackbuilds repository. Good luck with it. As an aside I haven't used wicd so I cannot compare the two. If you do decide to use wpa_supplicant the man page will tell you how to complete your /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file (try Code:
man wpa_supplicant.conf |

@tdos20: Thanks, I missed that config page. I'll dig a little when I'll have the chance.
Anyway, as I promised, I have attached a snapshot of my router's wireless config page. Hope it helps... |
