Re: [Madwifi-users] WPA Problem

[Sebastian W. <to...@to...>]

Hi Fred,

If I understood your scenario correctly youre using atheros cards as an
accesspoint with hostapd. I tested this some weeks ago and wrote to this
mailinglist about the problem. I think the source of problem is not the
SETMLME failed message but SETKEY ioctl which failed. Do you get the
SETKEY message on hostapd startup?

Sam is very busy at the moment and had no time looking at this problem.
Its maybe not easy to debug because SETKEY works on x86, so this seems to
be a platform specific problem.

Regards,
Sebastian Weitzel
