Ah - ok - putting into /etc/r.conf
ifconfig_wi0="ssid foo"
will lock it during/after reboots; but kills the DHCP. Options are
- Do above but add
dhclietn wi0&
to your /etc/rc.local
- Leave ifconfig_wi0=DHCP in rc.conf
and do a 'man dhclient-script' and
accordingly create a
/etc/dhclient-enter-hooks
with the text
#!/bin/sh
ifconfig wi0 ssid f00
add 'if [ "x${interface}" = "xwi0" ]; then' ..'fi'
around it if you want it only to happen for wi0.
What the second option does is run an extra script early in the dhcp
cycle whcih sets your interface to the right ssid.
