Ad hoc wireless

Hey,

I'm trying to setup a wirelss ad hoc network. I don't know if I'm
doing it wrong, or if I really don't have any signal.

There doesn't seem to be a good guide for ad hoc, this is the command I'm using

iwconfig ath0 mode ad-hoc channel 1 essid test
ifconfig ath0 10.1.1.1 up

And the samething on the other host, with a different IP. There is a
message in saying "ath0 creating bss: ...." but I don't know what that
means.

Are their some other commands I need to run? Or should I look into the
signal side?

Thanks.
