Oops. I meant to mention that this was for the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-wireless script. I don't know of any other occurences. Added, will be in 7.62-1. *** Bug 121436 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 (ax) Description of problem: The $KEY variable, used to store the encryption key for WEP, can be a passphrase (like mine is) through the use of the "s:" prefix, and therefore can contain spaces (like mine does). I suggest that the following line: iwconfig $DEVICE key $KEY be changed to: iwconfig $DEVICE key "$KEY" to support such a situation, assuming this change has not already been made. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-7.53-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a wireless network card using a WEP passphrase that contains a space. 2. Try "ifup ath0" (or "ifup eth0", or whatever). 3. Note that the WEP key does not get initialized properly (e.g., with "iwconfig") Actual Results: The WEP key was not set to the appropriate phrase Expected Results: The WEP key should have been set Additional info:
