[Voyage-linux] WPA-PSK setup problem

Mon Mar 20 09:20:35 HKT 2006

Hi Keith and all,

Over the weekend I have tried the hostapd (0.3.7 and 0.5.0-2) for
WPA-PSK and it seems not working properly. I used old iBook (i.e. 2001
version) with 11b Airport. I have been using this iBook connecting to my
University wireless using WPA Enterprise without problem. When I used
WPA Personal to connect my the hostapd box, all I got from hostapd debug
messagges are "EAPOL timeout". Later on, I used another WRAP board using
wpa_supplicant and no success. For your reference, on the hostapd box I
tried two cards, madwifi-ng and hostap drivers.

I don't know what went wrong. The below is the hostapd.conf, which is
similar to what Keith used. Anyone has success in hostapd before?

interface=wlan0
driver=hostap
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=2
debug=4
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ctrl_interface_group=0
ssid=voyage-wds
macaddr_acl=0
auth_algs=3
#eap_authenticator=0
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
eap_server=0
wpa=3
#wpa_psk=76ab47787aa8b560895f617dd351ad9d32faa86232f5366b6554832073d07481
wpa_passphrase=voyage-wds
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=TKIP
#wpa_group_rekey=600
#wpa_gmk_rekey=86400
