wpa_supplicant.spec
- new spec file
- add /usr/sbin/wpa_passphrase
- add OPTIONS and MULTIPLE in /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant
- add OPTIONS and MULTIPLE in /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant
- set OPTIONS="-B -w"
What is the use of MULTIPLE? Can you give an example where another variable is required and OPTIONS and INTERFACES cannot be used? In /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant there is only set -B for start the wpa_supplicant daemon. -w is very helpfull for me (look at manual what -w means) but there is no way to set it in the system. OPTIONS allow it. If you have more than on card in the system and that are also different cards then you can use -N (look at manual and README) to use them. I do this with help of variable MULTIPLE. Is there a better solution available during boot the system? I was allso going back to wpa_supplicant-0.4.8 like FC5 since Comment#2. Fedora Core 5 and Fedora Core 6 are, as we're sure you've noticed, no longer test releases. We're cleaning up the bug database and making sure important bug reports filed against these test releases don't get lost. It would be helpful if you could test this issue with a released version of Fedora or with the latest development / test release. Thanks for your help and for your patience. [This is a bulk message for all open FC5/FC6 test release bugs. I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.] There was no problem since wpa_supplicant-0.4.8-10.1.fc6 for me, if I use my changes in /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant and /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant. I use this rpm version also in RHEL4. RHEL5 has also this rpm version. The RHEL4.5 beta channel contains wpa_supplicant-0.4.9-1.1.el4. All this versions work for me without the problem that was reported in this issue. If an OPTIONS variable would be in /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant and /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant the rpm would be more flexible for all users. If the daemon works for you without options you don't set any options in /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant. All other users can do it if they need options. At this time Red Hat do not allow this and updates will overwrite your own /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant script. There are some issues in Red Hat's issue tracker for RHEL4.5 beta and RHEL5 from me. Ah, I see they backed the version out before FC5 release. So this is fixed as of FC5 final... |
