[pfSense Support] Debugging hostapd

[pfSense Support] pfsense Beta 1.2B1 (built on Mon Apr 30 10:47:18 EDT 2007)
I just did a fresh install of pfsense on P3(500mhtz) with 384mb ram and 6GB disk. I think this is by far the cleanest install and least buggy software I have seen. I have a site-2-site vpn with linksys, PPTP server, dyndns, etc.etc.. Also have seen that pptp passthrough also worked like a charm right out of box in default installs. The only change I made, when installing, I deleted the swap because I saw no need for that since my machine has so much memory. I have a 2GB DOM (flash in IDE). Is there a way to use the software by installing it on flash. I don't want to loose any of the flexibilities by going to embedded version. Memory/disk etc are so cheap these days ..
Re: [pfSense Support] Debugging hostapd
set up your wireless as you like it in GUI. Then edit /tmp/{$if}_setup.sh ( {$if} = your interface name like ath0 or wi0 or whatever) and find the line that starts hostapd/wpa_supplicant (should look somthing like: /usr/sbin/hostapd -B /var/etc/hostapd_{$if}.conf and change it to somthing like /usr/sbin/hostapd -dd /var/etc/hostapd_{$if}.conf -B = run in background -dd = debug mode Then from CLI (ssh in or whatever) run /tmp/ath0_setup.sh and do your debugging. Remeber if you change anything in GUI the /tmp/ath0_setup.sh file will be overwritten and you have to edit it again. Also when you exit debug mode, hostapd will stop, so you need to enter gui and save changes on the wireless setup page to rewrite the startup script and start wireless again. Good luck :-) -lsf On 7/4/07, tester tester [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How can I get detailed debug data from hostapd? I've been using pfSense also as an access-point.

RE: [pfSense Support] Multiple IPs
Good to hear you got it going Dave, Jai, you will want to set them up with a /32 if proxy arp isn't working you can also try carp. I suppose it COULD be a faulty NIC, but give the above a shot. and do power down the router/or modem (whichever the case) between each shot. -Tim -Original Message- From: jai lamerton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tue 7/3/2007 9:24 PM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Multiple IPs Hi Tim, Thanks for the info... I have tried what you mentioned to no avail, I'm not sure my failure is due to an arp cache problem with the router (although i did suspect that) because connecting a laptop to the subnet and changing it's IP address has no problems, and there is no delay while arp timeouts. Same is true if I change the WAN IP address to any of the other IP's in the subnet. I wonder if I'm configuring the virtual IP wrong. I've been entering the IP address as Single addresses, ie /32 bit mask. Could it be the hardware? Jai On 04/07/2007, at 11:26 AM, Tim Dickson wrote: The IP's are in the same subnet right?
