Hi Jamin,

Thanks for your suggestions...
I have patched my kernel, followed the instructions at the link you
suggested, and now I'm near to have it working...:)

I have stil a problem concerning the authentication on the win2k server.
The server use: EAP, 128bit encryption and MSCHAPv2..I can not
anderstand very well the problem..but I'm investigating on it..


Bye
Lorenzo
