OK, I'll be the dumb guy who is getting ridicule and asks: what the fu^W hell is WPA? I mean, in real life language..:-)WPA is the latest generation of "wireless encryption", the previous generations having been cracked. Wireless encryption seems to be good for two things: making sure no-one can trivially eavesdrop on communications and giving one more option on how to limit access to a wireless network. The former is (in my opinion) not useful enough, the latter can be done via other means.
Fine so far. But if I use ssh in any case were is the difference? What do I have to do differently if I want to make use of this new shiny WPA latest and greatest encryption method and how can I find out whether this works with *my* laptop.
