Here is a description of the change in WPA management from the OpenBSD Upgrade Guide for 4.9:
Quote:
WPA configuration changes:
wpa-psk(8) is no longer used because wpakey support is now built directly into ifconfig(8). Inspect your /etc/hostname.* files for wireless devices using WPA and replace:
nwid myssid wpapsk `wpa-psk myssid wpapassword`
with the simpler form:
nwid myssid wpakey wpapassword
Please avoid using third party "how to" documents you find on the Internet, if that was the source of your "wpapsk" directive. They are often not kept up to date, and are regularly found to be incomplete, misleading, or incorrect.
