Description miolinux 2005-04-30 15:37:03 UTC
wpa_supplicant 0.3.8 works fine on wep+802.1x, but after upgrading to 0.4.0:

/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dipw -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -dd ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported

What is this bug report about? The 'ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported' message?
Comment 2 miolinux 2005-05-01 06:07:45 UTC
yes, sorry, but cut&paste put it on one line...

command: /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dipw -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -dd
error: ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported

i re-emerged it with USE=debug...
same command... after loading configuration:

and after the same error reported before it seems to skip network due to 'key mgmt'...

if you need more info tell me...

This error can be ignored for now - it shouldn't affect the functionality. I have reported this to the hostap mailing list.

Btw, as stated in the ChangeLog - wpa_supplicant-0.4.0 is a development snapshot, not to be considered stable.
