Fedora Networking :: WEP Encryption Not Working In F15?
May 31, 2011
My laptop able to detect wireless. I try to access it with a correct password. However, it keep prompts me the password is wrong. But I was able to connect the wireless using other PC with the same password. I am pretty sure the something wrong with the WEP encryption of the F15.
I am running Fedora 13 and using Ndiswrapper with my pci wireless card. my router is a netgear wgr614v9 wireless router with wpa2-psk. When I try to connect to my network the only options I see for security are dynamic WEP (802.1x) and WPA &WPA2 Enterprise and for authentication all I see is TLS LEAP Tunneled TLS and Protected EAP (PEAP). I can connect to my network when I drop security on the network but other wise I am stuck. I have been trying to fix it for about a week now by myself to no avail
I'm on an Acer Aspire One.Clean install of 9.10.I was using 9.10 and my wireless was working fine.Then for no reason it would not connect.So I decided to reboot my router and reinstall ubuntu.Still does not work.I have figured out that it seems to be WPA encryption that is at fault.When I turn it off on my Linksys the netbook connects fine, turn it back on and nada.
if i try to use a static address then the laptop seems to connect but I cannot ping the router or get to the internet.If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful, I would rather use WPA than WEP.My iphone connects and this netbook connects with Windows, so I know the linksys is not at fault.
There is a strange thing going out there in my box, I've tested b43-fwcutter on wpa-psk encrypted network, and there was no problem connecting (my card is broadcom 4318), recently I was trying to connect to WEP encrypted network without success. Network connection tested on other laptops (Vista, XP machines)so there is no possibility that the key isn't valid.
I have a strange problem for internet. My clients (winxp - S2) can't get internet.Let me explain my scenerios. Fedora 10 with lan (eth0) having direct internet from dsl model, client (XP service pack 2) can use samba shares using dhcp (wlan0) installed in Fedora 10 box. client can ping my linux box.Now problem is: client (dosbox) can ping the google ip address (i.e ping 74.125.39.106) but can't use 'ping www.google.com'. That means ping with ip works for internet from my client. My linux box can. I can use internet from FC10 but can't use iexplorer from my client to have internet. I have enable ipmasquarding in Firewall and dhcpd is running on wlan0 for dynamic ip address of my clients.Can someone suggest me what kind of problem having I? What should i do to success iexplorer for internet? what possibly am i missing?
enable WPA encryption on my wireless connection? Wireless networks are detected and listed, so the wireless card is functional in the most basic sense, however, when going to connect to any particular network,I am not given the option of entering a WPA passphrase, only WEP, and as my router is set to use WPA, this is a problem.I am trying to get this going on a fresh Karmic install on a Toshiba A15-S157 notebook.Thus far, I have found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/315489 which would seem to relate to my problem.I looked in my logs and saw this entry: Jan 10 16:06:35 cody-laptop firmware.sh[863]: Cannot find firmware file 'agere_sta_fw.bin', and have since found that file, and have downloaded it to my desktop. It seems like this may be the solution, but how to exact it, therein lies my (momentary) problem.
Using sudo iwlist scan, i will get a list of surrounding AP(s) around my laptop, is there a way to interpret the sudo iwlist scan results so that we can know what encryption type is the wireless network using?
A while back I posted [URL] a question about Ubuntu 9.10 not recognizing my WEP encryption key. The problem that I had is still essentially the same: After upgrading to 9.10 beta, then trying to upgrade using the alternate install disc for the full version (because of the same problem) I ended up having to do a completely new installation. Anyhow the problem still stands: my internet card works and it detects available wireless networks, the only thing is that after entering the key in, it will attempt to connect, then after a min or so, it will ask for the key again, ad infinitum. The upshot is that I can't connect to the internet at all. Right now I'm on Windows 7 RC.
The only thing that has changed is that I tried disabling encryption entirely, and Ubuntu was still not able to connect (I think the connection just timed out after a few minutes). I should add that I have Verizon FiOS, an Actiontec router, and my computer (since it is far away from the router) connects through a Hawking_300N extender. Right now I am using Windows 7 RC (which unfortunately expires in a little over a week), so I can access the internet through Windows, and check for any posts, but I can't immediately provide any command outputs, I'd have to restart, and that would take a few minutes. Further, I have tried both Network Manager and WICD, both of which produced the same results. I have not tried any WPA encryption mainly because the router is shared, and I don't to mess with everyone using the router unnecessarily.
Using a D-Link wireless router, trying to get it through the authentication process with the client through a D-Link DWA-125 USB wireless. When I set encryption to "none" on both ends, the router links up OK, but when I enter matching encryption settings on the router, and then in the driver data file (RT2870STA.dat) on the client side, I can't get it to authenticate. I've tried all possible combinations in the .dat file with no luck. I'm fairly well convinced that there is a bug in the .dat file settings, and that the wireless port setting need to be forced at startup through the /etc/networking/interfces file, or some such procedure, to override the settings in the .dat file.
When I run the following GET commad: ./snmpget -m ALL -M /data/net/naamab/snmp/snmp_mib/ -v 3 -a MD5 -l authPriv -u test1 -A welcome1 -x DES -X privpass 127.0.0.1 NOVELSAT-MODULATOR-MIB::nsModLineCMMode.0 -d
I get the error: Encryption support not enabled. snmpget: USM encryption error
I have defined a user (and user, view and access) that should work with encryption: snmpd.conf: createUser test1 MD5 welcome1 DES privpass group debugGroup usm test1 view debugView included .1 access debugGroup "" usm priv exact debugView debugView none
General details: I am using net-snmp on linux embedded version 5.5 Configuration (part of it): ./configure --target=mips64-octeon-linux-gnu --build=mips64-octeon-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu
I recently downloaded and installed CentOS 5.3 DVD media.The media check passed. I proceed to install the operating system sucessfully. After installation, all my hardware is recognized, when compared to CentOS 5.2. Anyway, when I attempt to connect to my wireless network that uses either WEP/WPA/WPA2-- I get an error message that I cannot recall (it basically only came up when I entered the key) However, I can connect to my wireless network when it is unencrypted and no open/shared key is needed.I would like to be able to connect to my wireless network when
FYI: I am using a RealTek RTL8185 Wireless Driver.Also, I use CentOS as a workstation.
I want to share my internet connexion via ad-hoc WiFi. If it's unsecured, it works fine, but when I use WPA encryption, it doesn't work anymore! I can connect from my iPod touch, but no internet. I connect to the internet from my laptop, via eth0 I want to share my internet connection via wlan0 I have no idea what's wrong
I couldnt find any relevant threads so I created a new oneI am at my wits end sudden my encryption password is being rejected. It has worked before and it is written down I even tried loading a LiveCD hoping maybe an update screwed it up but even in the LiveCD the password isnt working.This wouldnt be such a big deal if I havent changed all my passwords and stored them in KeePass and havent got a chance to back it up yet
I use to have problems getting my wireless card to connect to any network on ubuntu. I discovered that I needed to change my encryption mode from Auto to AES or TKIP on my router. After I did this I was able to connect to my network with full wireless n support. I am using a d-link DIR-615 wireless n router.So far I know this works perfectly on 9.04-10.10 alpha.
I have xbmc, a media center shell that runs on ubuntu. I am trying to set up a laptop to run it and be a full time media center. so far it works great, I installed xbmc live, but the only issue is I have a wep2 protected wireless router and the wifi does not connect automatically.
I have it set up and am using wpa_supplicant once those commands are run the wifi works great.I am a novice in linux in general, and can not seem to get this to work on startup, can anyone point me in the right direction on this? I haven't been able to find the xbmc start up script if one exists, I figured adding those lines to it might work,does this sound like a reasonable approach? if anyone knows where that is and how it is defined to be launched on start-up i would appreciate it(I guess this is getting into the general Linux knowledge but still good info)
Running ubuntu 10.10 here, brand new install/machine.USB wireless based on a realtek chipset. I spent a few days trying ndiswrapper, and now have the native driver up and running. I can see the network(s) but can't connect. If I encrypt the network, i get a bad password error from wicd network manager (All encypt. methods- Weps, WPA etc) If I open my wireless up with no encryption, i receive a "can't obtain IP" error.
I have an encrypted /home partition but would like to set up a guest account for my brother. Obviously, encryption doesn't work so well when you give out the key so what I'd like to do is specify a different, unencrypted location as a home directory for the guest account so he doesn't need access to that partition. Is there a way of doing this?
I've got fedora 10, dual boot with windows, 2 hard drives, 1st is NTFS windows. 2nd is split into a swap, ext3 for the OS, and an encrypted partition for /home.
When I installed Fedora selected the option to encrypt the hard drive. I want to change the passphrase, is there a way to change the passphrase, or do I have to re-install Fedora?
1.) I am wondering how to enable the lock to an encrypted partition which has been unlocked, using luks? On boot, I am been asked automatically for the pass phrase to unlock my partitions. After doing a back up, I want lock the encrypted partition again, but I don't know the command?! I umounted the partition but after mounting it again, I was not asked for the pass phrase but had access to my data.
2.) How secure is the default fedora version of luks? Is truecrypt better?
1. Fedora 14 has a user friendly disk encryption setup.However, there doesn't seem to be an option to change the encryption parameters during setup. Since I can handle the overhead, I would like to change the encryption algorithm and the key length for the default install.
2. I have created an additional encrypted drive (the entire HD) which claims to have its own encryption functionality (Seagate Constellation 1TB). Does Fedora use the built-in encryption mechanism by default? Is there any way to tell?
3. I can't seem to find any utility to tell me what the actual key size is for different HD's I have encrypted. "cryptsetup --help" seems to print out only the information for the default encrypted O/S which is the default 256 bit.
My problem is whether the -s option work when set to a 2,048 bit key length? Or, does it fall back to a 256 bit key length if it fails to do so? Or, does it automatically use the built-in encryption of the hardware? If the -s option doesn't work with a 2,048 bit key setting, can the kernel be recompiled to do so?
I was trying to install Fedora 9 on my new laptop that came with Win XP. I have selected the option to wipe out all partition and create a default layout with the Encryption option selected. But that installation got stopped on the middle, therefore I have started the installation again. This time it asked for the encryption password as expected but don't know why, its not accepting my password. I am 100% sure that the password is correct but it is not allowing me to enter into the hard disk partition section.
My question is, how do I remove encryption from my hard disk? I don't need to preserve the data, I just need to use my hard disk again. Is there any boot CD that allow us to format encrypted disks without prompting for a password?
I have currently a file server that runs on Fedora 9, and all other PCs (mostly running Windows XP) access the file server via SAMBA. Everything works perfectly! However, lately a home invasion in my neighborhood got me thinking. If they take my file server, my data is not protected. So, I would like to implement the LUKS partition encryption (/home) which sits on a separate disk. However, I don't quite like the decryption process at boot time. In other words, I would like to wake up the file server (WOL) remotely, and when it's done booting, I would like to log-in using the other PCs and enter the passphrase remotely to decrypt /home. Is this possible using LUKS encryption (i.e., cryptsetup)? If not, what would be another alternative to what I am trying to do using a secure encryption (so that the data is safe from thieves)?
I just upgraded to Fedora 13, with emacs 23.1. Now when I edit a .gpg (encrypted) file, emacs doesn't cache the passphrase, so when I save the file emacs demands that I repeat the passphrase twice.Previously, the following line in .emacs made it cache the passphrase:
Code:
(setq epa-file-cache-passphrase-for-symmetric-encryption t) This is supposed to work, according to the documentation [URL], but in Fedora 13 emacs it seems to have stopped working.
I'm planning a fresh F13 install, with separate partitions for /boot, /home, /tmp, /, and swap. All but /boot will be logical volumes, and I'd like to encrypt all but boot. If I encrypt the underlying partitions, is there any reason to also encrypt the logical volumes themselves?
my system will be: HP dv6-3040us Pavillion laptop AMD Phenon II 4GB DDR3
I have a computer running Fedora 14 and when I installed it, I chose to encrypt the drive.
I've recently changed the way I have things set up and don't want the encryption any more. From what I've read there is no way to simply and easily remove the encryption, so what I would like to do is input the pass phrase remotely.
so, Is there anyway I can type in the pass phrase remotely, or remove the encryption?
I have been trying to setup IPSEC encryption between two linux boxes. I have a server application which runs on Linux Box A and a client application which runs on Linux Box B. The client sends the data to server. I have captured wireshark logs at both server and client end. In the wireshark logs I can see that the Box B send ESP packets to the Box A.
But the server Application running at Box A is is not able to get any packets. If I turn the policy off at Box B, Box B sends normal UDP data packets to Box A, but still the Server Application running at box A doesn't get any packets.( Expected behavior since policy at Box A enforces that all packets coming from Box B should be encrypted.)
If I turn the policy off at Box A and Box B both, the server application receives the unencrypted data which is also expected behavior. But when the policy is turned on at both the boxes the encrypted packets reach the Box A but are not delivered to the server application. If anyone has faced such issue please help me to debug this issue. I have attached the ifconfig and policy settings at Box A and Box B for your reference.
