Compliments to the chefs: wpa, dhcp, and rc.conf

Just a note to say thanks to all those involved in integrating WPA support 
into the base system.  I used to use a custom script that did all the 
ifconfig lines manually, start the supplicant, and then run dhclient.  It 
worked, but it wasn't nearly as smooth as plugging in a CAT5 cable and 
having it all work automatically.

Since dhclient was changed and wpa_supplicant was brought into the base 
system, everything now works the same for wired and wireless connections 
on my laptop.  My rc.conf now has an ifconfig_ath0="WPA DHCP" line and an 
ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" line, there's a simple wpa_supplicant.conf file 
in /etc.  Depending on whether my wireless radio is turned on or not, I 
either get a working wired connection or a working wireless connection.  
No fumbling on my part needed.

Thanks to all those who worked on getting the needed bits to work together.
