multi wireless-profile

2006-02-11 Thread antongiulio05 
Hi,

I use my notebook at home and office with wireless. Obviously at home I have 
different ESSID and different PSK to office. And so, at start, Debian searches 
last ESSID/PSK insert in configuration files. Is it possible have multiple 
profiles for wireless connection (and so choice at start profile required) to 
avoid manual configuration everytime?

Thanks,
Giulio

you need to look at wpasupplicant.  It will allow connection to different
ESSIDs with specific key requirements.

Alternatively you could use whereami. It allows you to configure
anything you like based on various tests eg which ESSID is available,
what IP address you were assigned via DHCP, etc.
