Configuring 802.1X Authentication
in [Network and Web]
|
From: Camerons on 22 Mar 2010 12:21 We are currently using Windows XP Professional SP3 with Client Side Extensions installed against a 2003 Active Directory functional level domain We are attempting to implement an 802.1X certificate based authentication scheme accross our enviroment for both our wired and wireless connection. Unfortuatley the people who we rent active directory from are unwilling to setup a 2008 Active Directory functional level domain controller or apply the requried schema extension necessary so that I could apply the 802.3X Wired Authentication GPO I've done much research on this, will very little productive information. What information I have found describes the same process that if you enable the Wired AutoConfig service which enable the Authentication Tab for your network card, that authentication changes are stored in the registry in the following location HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EAPOL\Parameters\Interfaces\YOURNIC\ I tried replicating the settings on my desktop and while I could make changes via the GUI, I could not find those changes replicated in the specified location or for that matter in any place in the registry. I thought this maybe had to do with image domain added workstation, maybe a seperate GPO was doing something. So this morning I setup a clean box with a default install of Windows XP SP2 not attached to any domain/workgroup. Unfortuatley I've found that the same situation has occured. I should also say this is with using either PEAP or Certificate as the authenetication method. I was hoping someone might be to shed some light as to why my registry isn't updating, before I have to place a call with Microsoft and use up support hours. For more information the most productive post I've been able to find on this topic is: http://www.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/microsoft.public.win2000.security/2005-06/0126.html Thanks.

AuthenticateMyWiFi from NoWiresSecurity is one choice: http://www.NoWiresSecurity.com "Camerons" wrote: > We are currently using Windows XP Professional SP3 with Client Side > Extensions installed against a 2003 Active Directory functional level domain > > We are attempting to implement an 802.1X certificate based authentication > scheme accross our enviroment for both our wired and wireless connection. > Unfortuatley the people who we rent active directory from are unwilling to > setup a 2008 Active Directory functional level domain controller or apply > the requried schema extension necessary so that I could apply the 802.3X > Wired Authentication GPO > > I've done much research on this, will very little productive information. > > What information I have found describes the same process that if you enable > the Wired AutoConfig service which enable the Authentication Tab for your > network card, that authentication changes are stored in the registry in the > following location > > HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EAPOL\Parameters\Interfaces\YOURNIC\ > > I tried replicating the settings on my desktop and while I could make > changes via the GUI, I could not find those changes replicated in the > specified location or for that matter in any place in the registry.
