Hi All,

The wiki says:

With the above configuration, udhcpc will only run once at boot. If the Wif=
i isn't available then, or the network changes in between, it needs to be n=
otified. This is done through the wpa_cli action script in /etc/wpa_supplic=
ant/wpa_cli.sh

rc-update add wpa_cli boot

But when I do this I get the next error messages when rebooting:

Failed to connect to non-global ctrl_ifname: (nill) error: No such file or =
directory

  *   Start-stop-deamon: failed to start /sbin/wpa_cli
  *   Failed to start wpa_cli
  *   Error: wpa_cli failed to start

Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this?

Thanks in advance
Gert.
