Help with WEP keys on FreeBSD 6.0

2006-03-15 Thread Warren Toomey
Hi all, while I'm fine with wired networks, I am having trouble getting WEP
set up on a new Dell laptop. The box has an iwi wireless card in it, and I'm
trying to establish a connection to a WRT54G access point that runs OpenWRT.

On the OpenWRT side, I have 

wl0_hwaddr=00:14:BF:74:D4:5E
wl0_closed=1
wl0_ifname=eth1
wl0_key1=3f352a2149646c675e5e2abcde
wl0_radio=1
wl0_ssid=fred   [ the key and ssid changed slightly for security ]
wl0_wep=enabled
wl0_wep_bit=104
wifi_ipaddr=10.10.2.1
wifi_netmask=255.255.255.0

Using Windoze XP on the Dell laptop, I can associate with the WRT54G
with WEP turned on, and ping the access point. However, with FreeBSD 6.0,
I can only ping the access point when I disable WEP.

With WEP enabled on the WRT54G, I run these commands on FreeBSD:

ifconfig iwi0 10.10.2.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 channel 6 ssid fred
ifconfig iwi0 wepmode on wepkey 0x3f352a2149646c675e5e2abcde

and ifconfig iwi0 then shows:

iwi0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
inet 10.10.2.20 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.10.2.255
ether 00:16:6f:4b:98:57
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect
status: associated
ssid fred channel 6 bssid 00:14:bf:74:d4:5e
authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF wepkey 1:104-bit txpowmax 100
protmode CTS bintval 100

However, pings from the laptop (10.10.2.20) to the AP (10.10.2.1) fail.
I have wlan_wep built into the kernel. Can anybody think what I might
be doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance,
Warren Toomey

Auto Reboot on Panic?

2005-07-18 Thread Warren Toomey
Hi, I have recently installed FreeBSD 5.3 on a Dell Poweredge 650 server,
and it has panicked twice in the past 3 weeks. Unfortunately, the box is
in a server room for which I don't have a key, and access can take hours.
 
I would like the box to dump core and reboot on a panic. I think I have set
the box up to do this, but on the last panic it didn't reboot. I followed the
information at http://www.bsdatwork.com/2002/03/29/system_panics_part_1/,
and I have compiled a kernel with makeoptions DEBUG=-g, options KDB,
options KDB_UNATTENDED.
 
/etc/rc.conf has these lines: dumpdev=/dev/ad6s1b, 
dumpdir=/usr/local/var/crash. The box has 768M of RAM, ad6s1b has
at least that much space, and is configured as swap. 
 
Can anybody tell me what I have forgotten to do to make the box reboot on
a panic? Many thanks in advance,
 
Warren

Java and Netscape 7.1?

2003-08-17 Thread Warren Toomey
Hi,
I've installed both netscape7-7.1 (a Linux browser) and
linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2 via ports on FreeBSD-4.8. Both are working
fine, but I can't work out how to enable Java support from
within netscape7english. I've searched the questions mailing
list with no luck. All the Netscape 7.1 release notes say is
that: Java is not included with the Linux installer for Netscape 7.1.
Download Java version 1.4.2 or later at the Java web site.

Many thanks for suggestions or solutions,

Warren
