Is there a different setting in hostapd.eap_user that I can use? It depends on what EAP method you want to use. If you just want to test something simple, PEAP with MSCHAPv2 has been available for a long time in various Windows versions. It could be configured with following style hostapd.eap_use entries: * PEAP "user" MSCHAPV2 "password" > Windows Authentication > > * Enable IEEE 8021.1x Authentication > * Microsoft: Protected EAP (PEAP) > * Authentication Method: Secured Password (EAP-MSCHAP v2) > * Enable Fast Reconnect — Selected > * Authentication Mode: User authentication Which would match those entries above. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
