Hi,

Why would you want to set this programmatically using MoreSCF?

Because it's for a kiosk machine. The configuration of the machine should be automatic without any user interaction required.

Jerome,

Given what you are trying to do, I think that the answer will be to get the Airport API - which is available under NDA only. If you would submit an email to email@hidden, I can work with you to get the Airport API SDK.

Please indicate a short product description and a FAX number where we can fax and NDA.

The Airport API provides a call by which a tool can make a call to configure a connection with a specific ABS. As part of the WirelessJoinWEP call, you would pass in a CFStringRef, for the password in either string format or direct WEP key. The API does not provide a way to convert a plain text password into a WEP key.

What this means is that you would include a startup item which makes the call to make the wireless connection. Hope this sounds like what you are looking for.
