Hostapd

hostapd用于开启wifi ap，执行后会创建/var/run/hostpad文件夹，hostapd_cli是用户操作界面。

$ hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf &
$ hostapd_cli -i wlan0 enable
$ hostapd_cli -i wlan0 disable

用法

#!/bin/sh
#
# Start the Hotspot....
#

HOSTAPD_CONF=/etc/hostapd.conf
HOSTAPD_CONF_DEFAULT=/rom${HOSTAPD_CONF}

case "$1" in
  start)
        printf "Starting Hotspot: "

        # start hostpad if /var/run/hostapd not exsit
        if ! [ -e /var/run/hostapd ]; then
                hostapd $HOSTAPD_CONF > /dev/null &
                timeout=0
                while ! [ -e /var/run/hostapd ]; do
                        usleep 100000
                        let timeout++                
                        if [ $timeout -gt 10 ]; then
                                 echo "FAIL"

/dev/random随机数不工作导致hostapd的密码错误的问题

现象：开启WEP加密后，密码错误：

random: Cannot read from /dev/random: Resource temporarily unavailable
random: Only 0/20 bytes of strong random data available from /dev/random
random: Not enough entropy pool available for secure operations

里面的0/20，多连几次可能会增加（如变成7/20/14/20），所以可能多连接几次就能连接成功了。

临时解决办法，用/dev/urandom替代：

$ mv /dev/random /dev/random.orig
$ ln -s /dev/urandom /dev/random
