RE: [Airjack-users] essid_jack error

[Jerry S. <js...@de...>]

Actually, I never did get airjack to build correctly.  I do however have
the drivers working so now essid_jask and wlan_jack work.

"write: Network is down" is definitely the result of the interface being
in a down state.

Make sure you do a "ifconfig aj0 up", and run the tools as root.

Jerry Shenk had a problem with essid_jack yesterday, but it turned out
to be oddities in his RedHat 7.2 stock kernel.  He recompiled his kernel
with unnecessary junk turned off and rebuilt AirJack and it worked fine.

Thanks for your reply, Rakesh.

My interface is up.  When I type ifconfig, it does list aj0.  Any other
ideas?

Thanks for your help,

Mike

It may just be that your interface is down. Do "ifconfig" and if it
doesn't list aj0, then do "ifconfig aj0 up" and try to run essid_jack.

Hi,


I'm new to Airjack. I'm running Linux 2.4.20-20.9, recompiled with the 

CONFIG_NET_RADIO option =y and using kernel PCMCIA as a loadable module.
I 

have been using the hostap driver with my D-Link DWL-650 for normal 

wireless connectivity.


I've installed the Airjack driver v.0.6.6b-alpha and the tools (missing 

ones taken from the 0.6.2 distribution), seemingly without incident.
When 

I type iwconfig, I see "aj0 no wireless extensions." I have tried to
test 

out the essid_jack tool, but it returns the error message: "write:
Network 

is down."


I've taken a look at essid_jack.c, and I can see where it's failing, but


I'm not quite sure why.


I would be very grateful for any assistance that you might be able to
offer.


Thanks,


Mike
