I had to 'ifconfig ral0 wpaakms psk' to remove 802.1x from the akm list, so a MacBook could manage to associate with my network. The MacBook would always try to use WPA Enterprise no matter what. There was no apparent way (at least in the GUI) to convince the thing to just do WPA PSK instead. Once I had made the change on my router, it automatically went for WPA PSK and things just worked. We might also want to document that somewhere? I don't know where an appropriate place would be though. Man page? FAQ? Just leave it here in the list archive? Or maybe make even default to 'wpaakms psk' if PSK is configured, until OpenBSD supports 802.1x properly? Stefan
