Neil,

I actually found wpa_supplicant prior to your email.  Problem is I can't
compile the damn thing.
I've obviousely got some problems with my .config file but I can't
figure out what.  It keeps complaining it can't find openSSL and other
things.

Do you have a copy of the .config file you used?
