Bering 1.2, Orinoco silver cards in a Soekris Net 4501 box.. Having a
problem getting the essid to work, and get an ip assigned to the radio :(
Here's what I have:

/etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo                                                                   
     
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
        address 192.168.2.151
        masklen 24

iface eth2 inet static
        address 192.168.3.1
        masklen 25
        wireless_mode ad_hoc
        wireless_essid private
        wireless_key s:priva
        wireless_channel 11

# iwconfig

   link/ether 00:60:1d:23:7e:bb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

        When I restart the pcmcia service, it looks as if it loads ok, no errors,
and I get the single solid light on the radio that I would expect.. I have
the other end of the link to configure yet, so I'm not sure if it is
associating or not..
