I've been hacking up an implementation of "Host AP" support on FreeBSD
4.5.  This allows a FreeBSD machine with a Prism2 wireless interface to
act as an AP.  I've got it hobbling along so I thought I'd share my
work so far.

One problem is I can't get WEP to work when you put the Prism 2 in
this (host AP) mode.  It looks like the Linux Host AP driver
(developer) ran into the same problem.  I'm looking around for some
secret switch to get it to work.

I put a tarfile on my web page:  http://www.skibo.net/hostap.tgz
You need to use the "save link as..." button on your browser to
get it (no ftp with my Pacbell hosted page).

Keep in mind this is highly EXPERIMENTAL.  Thanks!
