Description Michael Stern 2005-10-08 17:30:54 UTC

net.eth0 will fail with a command not found error if the ssid containes a 
hyphen.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.key_SSID-with-dash="key string"
2./etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
3.Enjoy error

Actual Results:  
Network (and related dependant services) do not start

Expected Results:  
Normality

reconfiguring my wlan to not have a hyphen in the SSID  (i,e, NET-G  to NETG) 
and changing the wireless key_ line, things work perfectly.   Looks like a 
parsing issue.
