Re: hostapd with two separate interfaces and APs on a single machine?

[David Wetzel <dave%turbocat.de@localhost>]

Hi folks,

it seems to work...

No idea why I had to use hostapd_flags once and command_args on the other file 
but this made it work.
I wish a newer NetBSD version would support multiple APs out of the box.

cat /etc/rc.d/hostapd
#!/bin/sh
#
# $NetBSD: hostapd,v 1.3 2006/06/02 01:06:16 rpaulo Exp $
#

# PROVIDE: hostapd
# REQUIRE: mountcritremote beforemountlkm
$_rc_subr_loaded . /etc/rc.subr

name="hostapd"
rcvar=$name
load_rc_config $name

command="/usr/sbin/hostapd"
required_files="/etc/hostapd.conf"

pidfile="/var/run/$name.pid"
hostapd_flags="-B -P /var/run/$name.pid $required_files"

run_rc_command "$1"
