LinuxQuestions.org - [ipw2200 & WPA] Need help to connect to WPA enabled router.

Hello all.

I'm trying to connect to a WPA router wihtout success.

So here's what i've done so far.

I'm using Slack 11 with 2.6.20.1 kernel. Wireless is working fine. It's an Intel PRO Wireless 2200BG.

Code:

ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.0k

ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation

ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

ipw2200: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On:

ipw2200: Detected geography ZZR (14 802.11bg channels, 0 802.11a channels)

As modules i have this:

I've downloaded wpa_supplicant (wpa_supplicant-0.4.9-i486-1) from slackware packages (http://packages.slackware.it/)

I dont know if this is the way to connect but i'm trying this:

Code:

wpa_supplicant -ieth1 -Dipw -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

This is my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

Code:

# See /usr/doc/wpa_supplicant-0.4.9/wpa_supplicant.conf.sample

# for many more options that you can use in this file.



# This line enables the use of wpa_cli which is used by rc.wireless

# if possible (to check for successful association)

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

# By default, only root (group 0) may use wpa_cli

ctrl_interface_group=0

eapol_version=1

ap_scan=1

fast_reauth=1



# WPA protected network, supply your own ESSID and WPAPSK here:

network={

  scan_ssid=0

  ssid="XXXXX"

  proto=WPA

  key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

  pairwise=CCMP TKIP

  group=CCMP TKIP WEP104 WEP40

  psk="XXX"

}



# Plaintext connection (no WPA, no IEEE 802.1X),

# nice for hotel/airport types of WiFi network.

# You'll need a recent version of wireless-tools for this!

network={

  ssid="any"

  key_mgmt=NONE

  priority=2        

}

I don't know what to do next. Can someone help me out on this?

Thanks in advance.
