Re: NM starts wpa_supplicant -dd although wpa_supplicant is already started??



If you don't see any IE bits, then of course wpa_supplicant can't
connect to the access point!  There may one or both of two issues:

But I am able to connect with wpa_supplicant using the configuration
from the last email, but not with NetworkManager.

Difference between NetworkManager gui and wpa_gui from wpa_supplicant
is that wpa_gui includes in its authentification methods alse
IEEE802.1X (see attachment). NetworkManager does not do this, althugh
all other authentification methods are included (WEP64/128, WPA/WPA2
Personal/Enterprise).


I am using latest ipw2200 from vanilla-kernel 2.6.18:
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.1.2k

As you can see my wpa_supplicant configuration from the last mail:
1. it's IEEE802.1X
2. it's two phase authentification

and 3rd and most important

3. I am able to log in with wpa_supplicant without any problems using
the the configuration from the last mail.

I am using latest wireless-tools-28.


I have no idea why these access points at work are not reporting IE
bits, but they are using IEEE802.1X and two phase authentification.
