In looking at the configuration above, I am using the madwifi drivers. How do I edit the above configuration with the particular drivers that I am using? Also, I am able to get wireless up and running fine, but I would like it to run automatically every time I boot without having to type in the passphrase after booting. How do I do this?

I don't recall having to type in any passphrases at boot (type them into what?), but then I set up /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf from the start, so I expect that is it. Have a look at my first reply on the thread.

The problem I saw running it automatically was that if you do

chkconfig wpa_supplicant on

to get the service to start automatically, for ipw3945 at least there was some problem with sequencing between wpa_supplicant and either the usermode daemon that is associated with the driver or the interface coming up, I forget which. Maybe you won't have that problem so it is worth a try.
