Error in parsing quotes in /etc/network/interfaces, maclist option

Description

Hi,

the network howto states, that if you want to include multiple macs in the maclist option you have to use quotes, otherwise only the first mac would be chosen.

This seems to be not the case, if you leave out the quotes, "wl mac" returns the right mac addresses. If you use the following syntax maclist "00:02:2D:08:E2:1D 00:03:3E:05:E1:1B" wl mac returns:

mac 00:00:02:2D:08:E2<br/> mac 00:03:3E:05:E1:1B<br/>

So, the first mac address is entered wrong and there is never a match in the acl validation.

Cheers,

Lars

thanks for the report. The documentation was wrong, works without qoutes. Fixed in svn and on the website. All old Howto documentation you have found is removed, too.
