Author: dougb Date: Mon Mar 16 23:56:28 2009 New Revision: 189902 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/189902 Log: Add some notes and clarify a few sections: 1. Add a note to double-check the man page 2. Remove windows-specific items in the ctrl_interface section 3. Add a note that ap_scan must be set to 1 for use with wlan 4. Clarify the wording for scan_ssid related to APs that hide ssid 5. Clarify the wording for the priority option Modified: head/contrib/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Modified: head/contrib/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf ============================================================================== --- head/contrib/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Mon Mar 16 23:08:38 2009 (r189901) +++ head/contrib/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Mon Mar 16 23:56:28 2009 (r189902) @@ -1,5 +1,7 @@ ##### Example wpa_supplicant configuration file ############################### # +# ***** Please check wpa_supplicant.conf(5) for details on these options ***** +# # This file describes configuration file format and lists all available option. # Please also take a look at simpler configuration examples in 'examples' # subdirectory. @@ -59,19 +61,6 @@ # DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=0 # (group can be either group name or gid) # -# For UDP connections (default on Windows): The value will be ignored.
