We are deploying 802.1x on our wired network and I am
working to get an older Dell system so that it will continue to
work in our brave new world.
Obviously, if it had worked, I wouldn't be posting this
message so here's the tale of woe.
The GUI is absolutely not an option on this system but
this really doesn't look that bad at all. I obviously have
something misconfigured. Here is the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
file minus the Crown Jewels but the problem isn't
authentication. I think it is how I defined the network:
# IEEE 802.1X with dynamic WEP keys using EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2
ap_scan=0
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
identity="usern...@okstate.edu"
password="nice_try"
eapol_flags=0
}
That was taken right from examples provided with the
wpa_supplicant installation.
When I tried to test it, here is what happened.
# wpa_supplicant -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -d

It looks like absolutely nothing really happened. Actually, it
did. It killed eth0.
ifdown eth0;ifup eth0
Does bring eth0 back up.
Thanks for any constructive ideas.
