It would help me (and everybody) if you could shed a little light on that subject. Apart from patching wpa_supplicant 0.3.11 and the most current to work under FreeBSD, I'm probably missing an import piece of information. Neither the man pages nor the current FreeBSD docs indicate (at least for me) the necessary adjustments. I'm certainly willing to raise a general web page about those issues (wlan/eap/802.11x) on my technical web site (https://www.fehcom.net). regards. --eh. > > -- > Paul > Dr. Erwin Hoffmann | FEHCom | http://www.fehcom.de
