I have Ubuntu - Hardy Heron 8.04 on an eeepc 1000h.

I am using wpa_supplicant (as wicd,network manager, etc. have not worked) to connect to my universities wireless network "uwf-argo-air" and I am getting errors.

Here is everything I have logged, hopefully someone can tell me what I have wrong if anything?

Supposedly it has been possible for someone to connect to the network with wpa_supplicant, so that is why I am using it.


This is my wpa_supplicant.conf file:

Code:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

# .conf for University wifi
network={
        ssid="uwf-argo-air"
        scan_ssid=1
        key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
        eap=PEAP
        identity="myusername"
        password="mypassword"
        phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}


This is what happens when I try to run wpa_supplicant with the .conf file I have... we get an association but then shortly after it disconnects...


Code:

I have wpa_supplicant working on every other network type, wep 128 Hex, wpa etc. just not on this university wifi with this radius server they use.

If anyone can figure out what on earth is going on here I would be greatly appreciative!

Thanks,
