Encrypted Wifi network connection problem

Below is the setting up procedure of a Encrypted Wifi network in Win XP (coz the web doesn't provide any instruction for linux = =)

* Under the "Association" tab, type "freegovwifi-e" in the Network Name (SSID).
* Ensure Network Authentication is "WPA" and Data Encryption is "TKIP". (or Network Authentication is "WPA2-Enterprise" and Data Encryption is "AES").
* Under the "Authentication" tab, select "Protected EAP (PEAP)" in "EAP type".
* Un-tick:
o "Authenticate as computer when computer information is available"
o "Authenticate as guest when user or computer information is unavailable"
* Click "Properties".
* Un-tick "Validate server certificate".
* Select "Secured password (EAP-MSCHAP v2)" in "Select Authentication Method".
* Press "Configure".
* Un-tick "Automatically use my Windows logon name and password (and domain if any)".

actually i hv installed the new network manager already from viewtopic.php?f=34&t=1028&st=0&sk=t&sd=a#p11346

however i still can't connect, i don't think a CA cert is needed, therefore i press ignore when the box popped up and i enter the username and pw provided. i also tried PEAP version 0,1 too, but both can't work.
how should i set up, pls help, thx so much !

WPA2 Enterprise requires certificates.

 

but how to find cert ??

is it the same and must for all WPA entreprise Encrypted Wifi network ?

coz according to the instruction for xp, it seems no cert is provided for dl.

thx

 

you're supposed to create and distribute the certificate on the Radius server you're connecting to.

 

sorry, i am new to linux....

can u explain ?

thx

 

radius is a server component of windows servers
i assume linux has same component on its server version too but i am not knowledgeable enough on that to answer your question
