Authpf(8) is a common tool for wifi authentication -- I use it with W2K, WME,
W98, and OBSD clients.  The Windows platforms all run putty.

Since wifi isn't secure -- you'll want to set up encrypted connections for
your clients.  I use ssh to tunnel everything, and to provide SOCKS proxy
services as well.  Your environment may need more than that, if so, you can 
use vpn(8) or the OpenVPN port.
