[TriLUG] Wireless and wpa_supplicant

I run my wireless hidden (no broadcast). I have added it appropriately 
to my wpa_supplicant.conf. However, it will not connect. I am able to 
connect by setting the iwconfig params including the key manually. If I 
broadcast my essid, wpa_supplicant finds the essid and sets everything 
up correctly.

Anyone know how to get wpa_supplicant to work with a hidden essid?

TIA
Roy
