I have a headless Debian machine, with a Wifi dongle connected. I used to hide the Wifi AP, but now I can't.
If I unhide it, some lines in the /etc/network/interfaces will allow me to connect:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid <name>
wpa-psk <hex/raw pwd>
If I hide the AP, add this line, then restart the interface, it won't work (DHCP gets no IP):
wpa-ap-scan 2
I've not found official documentation about the /etc/network/interfaces config.
What can I do now?

Finally, I've found out a solution, just an other line (previous not needed:
wpa-ap-scan)I've not really found it in any documentation... just in a forum post.
