Connected to wireless

I have a Wireless AP with open security and WEP encryption and in other side is My Linux box using Slackware 12.2, whereas wlan0 as my wireless Lan card.

In this case I want to connect my Linux Box to my AP and The AP also as DHCP server.

# iwconfig wlan0 key 12345ABCDE
# iwconfig wlan0 ap  (MAC ADDR your AP)

• Get IP Address and connected

# dhclient wlan0
