Hi all,
Is anyone may give an url where i can find tutorial on how to configure a wifi interface ?
or better which files have to be edited ( i suppose /etc/sysconfig/network-scrip/XXXXX) and an example of this file !!!!
Does the driver get loaded correctly for your wireless device? What device is assigned to it? (eth0/eth1/ath0...) Check /etc/modules.conf (fc1) or /etc/modprobe.conf (fc2) (or try /sbin/iwconfig or
reading that i wonder why the /etc/modules.conf has been replaced by /etc/modprobe.conf ( is it due to 2.6?)
/sbin/lsmod)
Then run redhat-config-network (fc1) or system-config-network (fc2) to configure the interface. The only 2 additional things (compared to a wired network) that are reqired are ESSID and KEY (encryption).
If you have a non-'ethXX' device - then you would have to modify the config files manually (atleast for fc1) and the files would be (for eg - for ath0)
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-ath0
