Hi,

I'm still using waproamd with a little modified default script.

waproamd is said to be obsolete and replaced by wpa_supplicant, but i
think that's true only for the key management part of it, not for the
association and network management part.

However, Debian has a similar thing called net-detect, if i remember
properly.

You can basically do it all in scripts.

(Don't expect the comfort of IBMs AccessConnections.)

Andr=E9.
