Hey,

I'm trying to setup a wirelss ad hoc network. I don't know if I'm
doing it wrong.

There doesn't seem to be a good guide for ad hoc, but this is the
command I'm using

iwconfig ath0 mode ad-hoc channel 1 essid test
ifconfig ath0 10.1.1.1 up

And the samething on the other host, with a different IP.  There is a
message in the logs saying "ath0 creating bss: ...." but I don't know what that
means.

Are their some other commands I need to run?

Thanks.
