Problem with wpa_supplicant
Has anyone else noticed a problem with wireless authentication using
wpa_supplicant? Following a router change and consequent messing with passphrases, my Thinkpad with iwl4965 chipset has ceased to authenticate. It can easily connect with the wireless router if the router is 'open' but fails on WEP, WPA and WPA2. The household's mac airbook, ipad, iphone and android phone have no difficulty. I have tried deleting all /etc/sysconfig/network* files, as well as those in wicd and wpa_supplicant and recreating but no joy. Interestingly, the psk reported by a 'iwlist wlan0 scan' for my router is nothing like the psk produced by 'wpa_passphrase essid mysecretpassphrase' scan: 1382882a0e39633131ca70df0db2a9bff9a8f142d47cdde921 740e27aea26c77 wpa_passphrase: f389062374809e11f7c30b39b6e34f221b311a963dcb866a31 8bcee1e4ce0337 Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Fedora 17 on 3.5.5.-1, wpa_supplicant, wpa_supplicant-1.0-1.fc17.x86_64 I hope the psk and the passphrase you posted are not your REAL psk and passphrase values. What tool did you use to configure your wlan0, and did you (in that tool) provide the ESSID name, AP MAC address, security mode (WPA2-xxx... etc) and ascii passphrase? Also how did you "Activate" the interface? Did you provide a static IP or selected DHCP? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
