Re: WPA on NetworkManager with MadWifi?

Well I switched to running Fedora Core 5 test to see if it was
something on my Ubuntu system that causing the problem and I am still
unable to associate with any Access Point running WPA.

I am using the NetworkManager 0.5.1-10.cvs20060205

I am running the latest Madwifi drivers from SVN with the patch that
Dan provided earlier that added support for range->enc_capa

Below is the connection log:
