NdisWrapper driver


Hi.
I'm installing ndiswrapper driver: linky
I got passed step two, although I had to go in to /usr/sbin and run ./ndiswrapper -i ... command. Because when I tried just running ndis.. command, I was getting command not found error. I guess a link wasn't created.
Anyway when I try modprobe it says command not found, also same for iwconfig.
Do those command just not exist in FC3, or something?
According to site iwconfig is part of the wireless-tools, I checked with yum and it's already installed. So what is going on?
Thx.

Never mind found both commands in /sbin.
I have a question when I do ./modprobe ndiswrapper no messages are displayed. I tried repeating step two and it says driver already installed. Is that normal? Website implies that something is wrong.

I don't believe any messages will be displayed using the newest ndiswrapper package. once you modprobe ndiswrapper, the rest is just configuring the connection.

I would go ahead and configure it and see if it will come up or if you can get any activity out of it. you can also do an lsmod to see if it was loaded correctly.
