AHA!  I think that in my pokings around [I didn't hit THAT wikipedia 
page..:o)] this was the key bit of information I couldn't puzzle out from 
the other places I looked.  SO: I'm currently using WEP, but it looks 
like XP/WPA-PSK <-> Linksys/WPA-Personal should do the job.

Other than that it seems like it is identical [in operation] with WEP, in 
that I just key in the passphrase to all the associated devices and I 
should be good to go.

Thanks!  /bernie\
