I'm using backported wicd 1.6.2.2 on lenny.
I believe I have made many attempts with 1.6.2.2 but I will try it again.
I find that the terms "key", "password", and "passphrase" tend to be
used interchangeably in the literature. The important thing to remember
is that the key can be 8-63 printable ASCII characters or 64 hexadecimal
characters. Hence the conversion you mention above.
To generate a PSK, you can use an online service like
https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm.
Ok. I will try that on my home situation.
OTOH I need to connect at a coffee shop which uses a given "password"
Wicd just tells me that the connection is WPA2. When I set Wicd
properties for that connection either to
WPA 1/2 Passphrase
or
WPA 1/2 Preshared Key
I get the same bad password rejection from Wicd.
That was with 1.7. I'm installing 1.6.2.2 right now.
Thanks,
Paul
