I cannot get this to work at startup time on 5.4 On 6.0 I put ifconfig_wi0="ssid mynet DHCP" into /etc/rc.conf and that works. I end up on the closed 'mynet' network via a DHCP address. On 5.4 neither that line nor other combinations in /etc/rc.conf of ifconfig_wi0="DHCP" ifconfig_wi0="ssid mynet" dhclient wi0 work. I _can_ get up on 5.4 by booting and then manually doing ifconfig wi0 ssid mynet dhclient wi0 After dhclient receives the IP etc from the server the machine is up fine. How in the world do I do this in /etc/rc.conf ( or other files ) on 5.4 so it works automatically at startup time?
