Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  fixed for v2.6.2. The ipv6 error message is unrelated.

Can you post the generated wpa_supplicant configuration file?
Comment by Tomas M. (eldragon) - Sunday, 03 July 2011, 13:21 GMT
i assume its the wpa.conf file generated.

here they come..

2.5.5 generates it at /tmp while 2.6.1 uses /run

i supposed thats expected.
   wpa.conf-2.5.5 (0.2 KiB)
   wpa.conf-2.6.1 (0.2 KiB)

They seem to be different. I suppose the breakage comes from there. Can you change "wep_tx_idx" to "wep_tx_keyidx" in /usr/lib/network/8021x and tell me if that fixes the problem? Thanks.

yes, it did connect, but there was a wpa error along the line, so im posting a new DEBUG output

   netcfg-2.6.1-connected (1.2 KiB)
