Well I can't see that since it's not an array and the values come from iterating through Cisco's API and a direct query for the transmit key. Look at ancontrol for the ugly & secret details! FYI from my laptop: WEP Key status: Key 0 is set 128 bits Key 1 is set 40 bits Key 2 is unset Key 3 is unset The active transmit key is 0 This corresponds to my Win 98 setting even when I twiddled things around and add things to verify it. It was a 1:1 mapping between the configuration utility and ancontrol. I'm also looking at running the Cisco for Linux configuration utilities under FreeBSD's Linux emulation. However, I can't get them to work under Linux (well I'm Linux challenged ... where's "make world"). I've heard they have lots of features but won't release the source for these utilities :-( Atleast the driver source is available so we should be able to emulate the Linux ioctls that they use :-) Doug A.
