Hi all

Can anybody share there wifi startup scripts? I wrote a few scripts
that I manually run to select whether I will connect through the wifi or
ethernet.

I was wondering if you guys are using something else that works more
like the way crux is organized.

I hope that question was clear

thanks
fernan

Hi, sorry for the late reply. This is what I use. I've XXXXed out
parts you don't need to see but you get the idea. I have this in
/etc/rc.d/ and run it from rc.conf. I comment it out when I'm
travelling and start wifi manually then. The sleep command is needed
for ipw3945d to initialize before trying to access the card.

HTH.
