Re: [Nubus-pmac-users] Kernel 2.4.30 + MediaBay hotplug patches

Hi Vito,

I installed the wireless-tools package and then entered the key and the  
network name in the file "/etc/network/interfaces".
I pasted the contents of this file below (enter your network name and  
your key in the marked places). You might have to change "eth0" to the  
interface name the Orinoco driver has got on your system.
In the wireless-tools package there should also be tools to configure  
the "interfaces" file but I found it easier to do it myself.
For further information you should read the man-pages of the  
wireless-tools.
-------------------------------------------------

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
	# wireless-* options are implemented by the wireless-tools package
	wireless-mode managed
	wireless-essid <network name>
	wireless-key <key in hex>

-------------------------------------------------
After you changed the "interfaces" file you should be able to connect  
with the command "ifup eth0" (or whatever interface name your card has  
got).
On every restart the connection should then be established  
automatically.
