Fedora-7 broke something with WPA authenication for me. The only way
I could get authentication to work is to hack the wpa_supplicant
startup to the end of ifup-wireless.
If wpa_supplicant was started before the network it would loop and
never associate. If it was started after the network it would
associate but the dhclient started by the network startup code would
never ask for an IP address.
I don't know if your problem is similar but lack of association rang a
bell.
