Hi; I see a problem with hostapd and ipv6 addresses. (To summarize: hostapd started from /etc/init.d/ destroys ipv6 addresses from managed interfaces - the bug has been reported in 2010 to hostapd, and is (also) described also here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=536630)
While this a known bug/problem, my main concern is that the workaround for a Debian-based system as found in Debian bug report above - "to not start hostapd from /etc/init.d and instead from interfaces after wlan0 is up" does not work on LEAF Bering-uClibc (tested with 5-prealpha) "auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet static address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx hostapd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf" Note the last line! This does not work, even with using the full path to hostapd... It does work (avoid starting hostapd form init.d) when I start hostapd form the CLI. It looks like the command in interfaces doesn't even run...? Anyone who can confirm that running from /etc/networking/interfaces works at all? kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
