Re: Just obtained a wireless NIC

[Petr Janda <elekktretterr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, so the line: "wpa_supplicant -B -Dbsd -iacx0 
-c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf" goes into the script and into rc.conf reads:

ifconfig_acx0="inet 192.168.1.50 netmask 255.255.255.0"

Will the script get loaded automatically or do I have to add something 
else into rc.conf?


Though, still having all of it in rc.conf would be neat.
