Attempting to use wpa_supplicant to connect to my wireless ap with the latest baselayout results in baselayout starting wpa_supplicant and then getting 'stuck', unable to proceed. Looking at wpa_cli in another console shows that wpa_supplicant is successfully connecting and authenticating. Manually setting an ip address or running dhcpcd results in everything working perfectly fine with no problems. baselayout seems to be unable to determine that wpa_supplicant has successfully connected. The same result is obtained with and without using an association timeout, in the former case the init sript displays the error '* Failed to configure eth1 in the background'. However wpa_supplicant is still running after this and manually setting/getting an ip address works fine and I have full network access. eth1 is the wireless interface using ipw2200 1.0.8-r1. baselayout-1.12.0_pre15-r1 is used. wpa_supplicant-0.4.7 and 0.5.1 have been tried with the same result. * /etc/conf.d/net # This blank configuration will automatically use DHCP for any net.* # scripts in /etc/init.d.

I just tried this again with baselayout-1.12.0_pre16 and the same thing occurs. The init script starts wpa_supplicant and just gets stuck and does not proceed despite wpa_supplicant authenticating with no problems. loki ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start * Starting eth1 * Starting wpa_supplicant on eth1 ...

(In reply to comment #0) > config_eth1=( "192.168.2.100/24" ) > config_eth1=( "default gw 192.168.2.1" ) That should be routes_eth1=( "default gw 192.168.2.1" ) re-open if you disagree
