Re: [gentoo-user] WPA2 connection configuration?

[Spidey / Claudio]

Complementing James comment, when I messed with Gentoo on a notebook I
also tried the confusing and troublesome way: configuring wi-fi to
connect at boot time. It was REALLY a challenge, maintaining a
realistic configuration file, which would let you boot with network up
equally while home and while at work. At the end of the day, I just
regressed to no boot configuration and went with wicd or
NetworkManager.
When I came back to configuring my desktop, it felt strange to run
dhcp at boot time, I even tried migrating a wired box to
NetworkManager, but ended with a static config nevertheless.
