Pretty much all of the combinations I've tried already. It almost looks as if something is clearing the KEY (and possibly also the NAME) variables before it gets to that point in the script. I haven't had time to debug the RH scripts, and may just put in my own. It's annoying, since in addition to what happens already, I'd need to call: iwconfig eth1 key 's:MyKey' ifconfig eth1 IPADDR netmask 255.255.255 route add default gw WIRELESS_GATEWAY This is a mess, not the least of which because I still haven't figured out how to get DHCP to kick in. I don't really want a static IP, and the unmunged PCMCIA-CS scripts do the right thing. It's RedHat's version of these scripts that isn't working for me. If RedHat would just document what they're munging, it would be a lot simpler. Any Redhat people know if this is documented anywhere? :-) --Rob Thomas Dodd wrote: > > Rob Thorne wrote: > >> I'm assuming it's a script problem, since I have established that >> entering the iwconfig eth1 key 's:xxxxx' format works fine.
