Hi,

using (WEP-)encryption is very easy: use neat (a.k.a system-config-
network), Devices->[wireless-dev]->Wireless Settings, where you can
set a key. Also, the shell gives a way, here is "my" wlan-script:

---
  #/!usr/bin/bash 

  if [ -z $1 ]; then
          DEV=eth1
  else
          DEV=$1
  fi

  iwconfig $DEV essid FreeWilly 
  iwconfig $DEV channel 11 
  iwconfig $DEV key 1234567890       # This is the WEP-Key

  ifconfig $DEV 192.168.10.17        # give the if a ip-adress
  route add default gw 192.168.10.1  # and set the default-route
---

cu,
 Joe
