Hi,

I'm a Mandrake user, giving Fedora a try.

I installed Fedora Core 1 on my Centrino laptop (Acer Travelmate 803), and configured about everything the way I want it, without any problem...

I use ndiswrapper to make my wifi card (intel 2100b) work. I installed ndiswrapper, and it works succesful, the driver is loaded correctly and the module loads correctly also: no problem.

I'm perfectly able to set up my wifi settings using iwconfig: no problem.

Then I try to get an ip, but here, I get this:


Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client V3.0pl2

/sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for wlan0 not found.
Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:04:23:83:17:3b
Sending on LPF/wlan0/00:04:23:83:17:3b
Sending on Socket/fallback
receive_packet failed on wlan0: Network is down
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4

send_packet: Network is down
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4

I did perfectly the same as I did in Mandrake (where it works successfully), but as you see I don't get an ip.


Anyone an idea how to solve this? :confused:

Thx,
Slike

Could '/sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for wlan0 not found' have something to do with it? Have you configured dhcp/dhclient?
