[brlug-general] Fwd: Linux wireless configuration

[Shannon Roddy]

May be useful for some of you:

> You may already know this, but it stumped me for a few months.
>
> Al has figured out where in RH9 do you put the wireless configuration 
> options.
>
> The values in /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts no longer do anything directly.
> Instead you put them in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX.
> For example, the following file on my laptop no longer binds to
> a random access point, i.e., no longer picks up ITS:
>
>
> # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
> DEVICE=eth1
> BOOTPROTO=dhcp
> ONBOOT=yes
> ESSID=AIRLIGO
> MODE=Managed
