------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-15 14:40 ------- Arg, you're right, that's a pain - it seems to have been dropped from the Mandrake kernel :\. The problem is that orinoco_cs is supposed to obsolete the wavelan and wvlan drivers :\. I don't know where you can get a copy of the wvlan source to compile, either...what a pain. Have you tested with 128bit encryption? If you could do that, and verify that it works, we could possibly mail the orinoco author, since that'd make two of us who couldn't get 64bit encryption to work. He's pretty responsive - seemed nice when I mailed him with PCMCIA IDs. So that might be the only other option...what a pain :(. Anyway, I'm fairly sure this isn't a Mandrake bug, but may as well leave it here as it's a convenient place to discuss :) ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Am running 9.1RC2 on a Compaq M700 with a Compaq WL110 (Orinoco) wireless card. On inserting the card, I run the following script to setup my encryption parameters (the essid, and encryption keys have been edited out for security purposes): /sbin/iwconfig eth1 essid companyid /sbin/iwconfig eth1 mode Managed /sbin/iwconfig eth1 key xxxx-xxxx-xx [1] /sbin/iwconfig eth1 key xxxx-xxxx-xx [2] /sbin/iwconfig eth1 key xxxx-xxxx-xx [3] /sbin/iwconfig eth1 key xxxx-xxxx-xx [4] /sbin/iwconfig eth1 key [1] At this point I can see the wireless access-point with iwconfig. Then I invoke "dhclient eth1" and get the following output: Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client V3.0pl2 Copyright 1995-2001 Internet Software Consortium. All rights reserved.

No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. I am unable to hook up to the company network. If I repeat the above on the same hardware booting MDK 9.0, (using "dhcpcd eth1" instead of "dhclient eth1"), everything works! In my home wireless environment, where I have no encryption turned on, I do not run the script above, but simply type "dhclient eth1" on MDK 9.1RC2 and I am up on the network.
