I can get it all up and running in ad-hoc mode with no encryption, and I can also get it to work with 128-bit WEP if I specify the keys in hex at both ends, but I can't get WEP to work with an ASCII passphrase. Is the mapping from pass-phrase to hex keys for WEP expected to be driver-dependent (hence not expected to work using the same passphrase on MW as FreeBSD?) Or should this be expected to work and hence seems like a bug somewhere? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
