Re: [Madwifi-users] Re: WPA-PSK Fail (madwifi + hostapd)

[Vincent T. <vi...@bu...>]

Well, I'm a bit doubtful here cause the line I use is from the sample hostapd.conf file from the archive !

# WPA pre-shared keys for WPA-PSK. This can be either entered as a 256-bit
# secret in hex format (64 hex digits), wpa_psk, or as an ASCII passphrase
# (8..63 characters) that will be converted to PSK. This conversion uses SSID
# so the PSK changes when ASCII passphrase is used and the SSID is changed.
# wpa_psk (dot11RSNAConfigPSKValue)
# wpa_passphrase (dot11RSNAConfigPSKPassPhrase)
wpa_psk=0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
#wpa_passphrase=secret passphrase


and I am using the 64 hex digits format ...

Regards,

Vince.
