I'm issuing the following command when I try to connect with wpa_supplicant
# wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
It won't connect before I start wpa_gui and enter a password in a box that comes up. Why do I have to enter a password? I have used wpa_passphrase to mask the real password and put it in wpa_supplicant.conf file. The wiki don't say anything about entering a password manually.
What do I have to do to use wpa_gui to choose witch network to connect to? wpa_supplicant have to be running first as a deamon, right? But it's not possible to run wpa_supplicant -B alone.
My wpa_supplicant.conf file.

I just had to add a password line in wpa_supplicant.conf. Now I don't have to use wpa_gui to enter a password.

My advice: Use wicd.
