[Hmm, hostapd seems to include sensitive info in its log like passphrase.] I managed to connect the client and kill hostapd before it hang and the log looks like this: Configuration file: /xxx/xxx/xxx/hostapd.conf ctrl_interface_group=0 Opening raw packet socket for ifindex 0 BSS count 1, BSSID mask ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff (0 bits) Failed to set country code SIOCGIWRANGE: WE(compiled)=22 WE(source)=21 enc_capa=0xf nl80211: Added 802.11b mode based on 802.11g information Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=1 freq=2412 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=2 freq=2417 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=3 freq=2422 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=4 freq=2427 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=5 freq=2432 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=6 freq=2437 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=7 freq=2442 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=8 freq=2447 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=9 freq=2452 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=10 freq=2457 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=1 chan=11 freq=2462 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=1 freq=2412 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=2 freq=2417 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=3 freq=2422 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=4 freq=2427 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=5 freq=2432 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=6 freq=2437 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=7 freq=2442 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=8 freq=2447 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=9 freq=2452 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=10 freq=2457 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm Allowed channel: mode=0 chan=11 freq=2462 MHz max_tx_power=27 dBm RATE[0] rate=10 flags=0x6 RATE[1] rate=20 flags=0x6 RATE[2] rate=55 flags=0x6 RATE[3] rate=110 flags=0x6 RATE[4] rate=60 flags=0x0 RATE[5] rate=90 flags=0x0 RATE[6] rate=120 flags=0x0 RATE[7] rate=180 flags=0x0 RATE[8] rate=240 flags=0x0 RATE[9] rate=360 flags=0x0 RATE[10] rate=480 flags=0x0 RATE[11] rate=540 flags=0x0 Passive scanning not supported Flushing old station entries Deauthenticate all stations Mode: IEEE 802.11g Channel: 6 Frequency: 2437 MHz Using interface ap0 with hwaddr 00:30:f1:12:34:56 and ssid 'xxxxxxxx' SSID - hexdump_ascii(len=3): [...] PSK (ASCII passphrase) - hexdump_ascii(len=8): [...] WPA: group state machine entering state GTK_INIT (VLAN-ID 0) GMK - hexdump(len=32): [REMOVED] GTK - hexdump(len=16): [REMOVED] WPA: group state machine entering state SETKEYSDONE (VLAN-ID 0) Using existing control interface directory. ap0: Setup of interface done.
