Actually ifupdown is perfectly capable of doing the work (well, it just
orchestrates it, but it commes with all the necessary scripts for that).
Here's my stanza in /etc/network/interfaces (passphrase somewhat decorated,
to protect the innocent):
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid dubcek
wpa-psk XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
That's all it is needed for ifup to set up wlan0, go out with DHCP and
fetch an IP address from our local DHCP server.
Of course it relies on wpasupplicant and dhclient to do the actual
magic behind the scenes.
Enjoy simple life :-)
Cheers
