I connected to internet via a USB wireless card, it works OK in GNOME, but it can't be detected on KDE. When enter KDE, iwconfig can not find any wlan. Wireless network connection not configured caused no wireless AP available, so the network not available. After I configured the wireless connection, The problem fixed. I'm replying in KDE now.

I am using an Outdoor CPE Wimax. For mobility purpose I have connected this wimax to one LAN port of ADSL+ WiFi router ( Beetel 450 TC1 ). This ADSL+wifi router reset to Factosy settings and enabled DHCP. With this setting , I am perfectly able to connect my laptop to Internet.
When I connect my USB adapter to Ubuntu , intially it detected the signal and asked for credentials. I gave the same and network established. But I am not able to browse the net. If I give [URL]..., its going to the ADSL+Wifi's diagnosis page. With Windows , [URL]... was going to the Wimax modem. After 2-3 trial and error , now Ubuntu also not able to connect to the wifi network.
I'm using ubuntu 10.4The hardware is a usb adapter with ew-7718unThe network is recognized, but never succeeded to connect. all the network setting are equal to a laptop which connect using on-board card (same linux distribution). the adapter performed well on windows. The problem persist with two different computers both with ubuntu 10.4

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 2 laptops running Ubuntu 10.04. One connects to my Linksys wireless modem fine while the other does not. The one that does not connect, will connect fine within the instances of Windows XP SP3 and Puppy Linux 5.1 that run on the same laptop. Ubuntu wireless worked fine with version 8.04 on this laptop before upgrading to 10.04.
When trying to connect within 10.04, Ubuntu pops up the dialog box to enter the authentication key. It rejects the correct key, and after a moment, pops up the same dialog box asking for the key again. I'm using WEP 40/128-bit encryption and the key I enter in the dialog box is the correct 26-character key.
The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite Pro 6000 (1g ram/40g disk). Here are some vital outputs root@user-laptop:/home/bsmis# iwconfig

while tampering with the settings for my wireless connection by right-clicking on the icon on the top menu i was originally asked for my password for authentication. i selected the option to remember the password for future sessions unintentionally.
how do i get it back to the original setting so that it asks for a password before allowing me into the editing screen? i tried preferences > system > authorisations > network-manager-settings, but it didnt work.
Has anyone else been having problems with their wireless network connections since the network manager updates? I have two different networks that I connect to and have in the past had no problems since figuring out what files were missing and had to be either created or corrected and copied into the correct locations. I have tried everything I know to get my secondary wireless connection working to no avail(currently connected through my neighbors unprotected network), from deleting the connection, rebooting and recreating it, editing the files and copying them back into the correct locations and nothing works.
I have even had many crashes while using network manager. Using system-network-config eliminated the crashes but still does not allow the connection to connect. It attempts to connect and just hangs on waiting for authentication after prompting for the WEP key and clicking OK. What in the heck is going on since the devs created all these updates and have once again broken the most important aspect of any usable system, the network? I'm running F14 and KDE 4.6.1.
I have been faithfully following the postfix/sasl/etc install docs from [URL] and seem to have hit a minor snag with SASL authentication for SMTP. KMail cryptically leaves me with a generic auth fail notice and tailing the mail logs gives me

I have upgraded three machines to Fedora 13.
On all of them any attempt to mount an nfs drive fails with:
Code:
This happens immediately - within a few tenths of a second at most. It happens whether I use mount -a(mounts are listed in the fstab file) or a full mount command. It happens on both 32-bit and 64-bit installs.
Nothing appears in the messages log file on either the server or the client machine.
It was working in Fedora 12.
Iptables and ip6tables are both disabled. nfsd is running.
Hosts.allow and hosts.deny both exist on the client, but are empty. They contain nothing but comment lines.
I can ping the server and run ssh shells to it. I can open Web pages in Firefox.
The server is CentOS 5.4.
I instaled HPML350 G6 server. I would like to configure ethernet fail over. I got the script from my friend and configured and restarted the network services.

Client: Fedora 14
LDAP server: 389-ds
I have set up the 389 server using the default configuration. Adding user and http/pam authentication works fine. The problem I have is the client authentication. On the client machine, using "authconfig-tui" to turn on LDAP authentication it turns on sssd and use 'sss' in etc/nsswitch.conf after 'files'. I couldn't get sss working. In the end, I disabled sssd and manually changed 'sss' to 'ldap' for all configuration files including:
modify /etc/nsswitch.conf
modify /etc/pam.d/password-auth, change all sss to ldap
modify /etc/pam.d/system-auth
change /etc/sysconfig/authconfig
FORCELEGACY=yes
After these, client authentication works. I can log in to the client machine using user/password set on the LDAP server. I thought this is done but everyday the LDAP service stop functioning once or twice. I can't log in to the client machine using LDAP username/password. After restart the dirsrv on ldap server, things back to normal. I can't find any reasons from /var/log/dirsrv/ldap-xxx error file and don't know how to debug the problem.
I have bought a so-called web'n'walk stick, which identifies itself as a "Globetrotter HSDPA Model". I managed to get it identified as a serial device (initially, it is detected as a USB drive), but I fail to get it working.

Am using Fedora 15, in which i was able to configure the proxy server and authentication. i confirmed this by configuring web broswer and it works. Now the problem is that i want to deploy it out to other computer system(client) i dont want to use the transparent proxy because the Proxy Authentication will not work.
I even tried to configure a DHCP server if it will work but i cant still configure for other computer system to work.
I have a small intel Atom based computer that acts as a 'combo' firewall / router / server / 802.11 Access Point that services my end user needs. I'm using hostapd 0.7.0 and Fedora 12 x86_64. The system works fine on Fedora 11. I decided to upgrade to Fedora 12 last night, and completely broke my wireless. Note that configurations are _identical_ between the Fedora 11 and Fedora 12 installation. Though, I did recompile the hostapd binary under Fedora 12 libs, etc.
Anyway, Client #1 associates fine. Client #2 associates, and hostapd hangs. Strace'ing the process shows nothing... just.. dead. SIGTERM works, but hostapd is unable to 'unallocate' the wlan0 interface, which appears to be in a hung state, so I can't simply re-start hostapd. So, I have to remove wlan0 from my bridge, them rmmod ath9k, modprobe ath9k, re-add wlan0 into the bridge, restart hostapd.. But the second association consistently hangs it every time. Next, I went and downloaded the latest compat-wireless drivers as of this posting. Selected the ath9k driver, built the modules, replaced them in my /lib/modules tree, depmod'd, reboot, etc..
BIG difference. Now hostapd does not hang, and there appears to be better logging/debug than ever before. This made me happy. Unfortunately, there appears to be a new problem. Clients can now associate, but only for a split second. They are immediately disconnected, and the following message appears via hostapd's stdout logging: hostapd: wlan0: STA 00:21:5c:39:a3:99 IEEE 802.11: did not acknowledge authentication response
For every client that attempts connection. Note that I'm using WPA2-EAP-PEAP w/ MSCHAPv2. I've also, for kicks, just tried regular WPA2-PSK with similar results. I'm using a mixture of clients, Windows XP, Windows 7, Linux Ubuntu, Fedora, and others.

Ive been using fedora 11 fora few months now and suddenly today after I booted up fedora network authentication(the little icon that lets me choose wifi networks) isnt showing up in the upper right hand corner which isnt that big of a problem but the fact that its on start up applications and its not wondering is what Im wondering about but on top of that my internet doesnt work at all.It will work for a little bit after boot then die and when I go to network authentication and network manager no wifi networks show up and I have about 5 around my house not including my own which is also what ive been wondering.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo my university has two wireless servers that students can log into: VCU and VCU SafeNet. The regular VCU server works fine in most areas on campus but the library which I imagine I would be spending most of my time in between classes to do work and such. The connection quality for the unsecured server sucks ass there, and I do not use that term lightly. Other students have found success connecting in the library through the SafeNet server and the tech support man in the library was very nice in helping me setting up the security rules to connect to SafeNet in openSUSE.
However, I lack one little thing that would get me internet connection on crack at the library: GTC authentication for PEAP in WPA2. I did some research and found that GTC has not been implemented in the GUI of KNetworkManager even though it was implemented in NetworkManager. The guide that the tech support man printed out for me was for some earlier version of Ubuntu, so I know NetworkManager has had GTC support for a while now and KNetworkManager is still lacking this. I also found a patch for KNetworkManager, but have had no luck implementing it.
I would like to use a wireless network from Ubuntu. In the network drop-down menu I select a network (this is a University network I have an account there). Then I get a windows with the following fields:
Wireless Security: [WPA&WPA2
Enterprise] Authentication:
[Tunneled TLS] Anonymous Identity:
[] CA Certificate: [(None)]
Inner Authentication: [some
letters] User Name: []
Password: []
I put there my user name and password and do not change default value and leave "Anonymous Identity"blank.
As a result of that I get "Authentication required by wireless network". How can I solve this problem?
I think it is important to notice that our system administrator tried to find some files (which are probably needed to be used as "CA Certificate"). He said that he does not know where this file is located on Ubuntu (he support only Windows). So, probably this is direction I need to go. I need to find this file. But may be I am wrong. May be something else needs to be done.
I would like to have a web site pop-up on the persons laptop that connects to my wifi network. The page will let them know this is my network and give a list of shares on the network. Then click ok to get wireless authentication. Something like you get when you connect to a wireless connection in a hotel. software i can install on my Ubuntu 9.10 server to do this.
