Hi,

Trying to get encryption working with a driver wrapped with ndiswrapper.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=530271

Q&D summary:

Oct 21 22:07:53 m5 kernel: wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with
WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK; AES/CCMP with WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK

But system-config-network reports:

 _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

Determining IP information for wlan0... failed; no link present.  Check cable?
 _ _ _ _ _ _ _


iwlist reports this for my network:

Any ideas?  Thank you. :)
