Bonjour Shaman,

Je ne parle pas francais tres bien parce que je suis American! Mais, le boujolais nouveau est arrivee!

Anyway, I am still in Noob territory but even after much googling, I can not find the wlanassistant 0.5.7 to download.

Can you point me in the right direction?

Merci,

Alacrity

Here is the one I used.


hostap.epitest.fi/wpa_supplicant/
Check out the READ ME section for installing....

backtrack.offensive-security.com/index.php?title=Howto:Module_Source
Here are some details from MUTS on installing source to Module. This really helped me...

google (wlan assistant 0.5.7 slackware package tgz)

after you get tgz package

tgz2lzm module.tgz module.lzm

no need to build from source with a tgz package in order to get a module

Hmmmmm.

Not too much luck.

Found: wpa_supplicant-0.5.7-i486-1

On this site: http://packages.slackware.it/

Was not lucky on google with the original content: wlan assistant 0.5.7 slackware package tgz

Were you successful with a google en francais? Let me know and I will download from a French web site if necessary.

Sorry for the difficulty....I wonder why this tgz is so difficult to find?

I am presently using the w.sh script which works for wpa_supplicant but assumed the wlan assistant 0.5.7 would make the wpa process easier via GUI. Maybe I am misunderstanding your post.

Merci,

Alacrity
