okay, finally got this to work and half-way understand the details. quick
notes.
Used PEAP with MSChap v2. This allows the WLAN connection to occur prior to
user authentication in order for the Group Policy script to fire.
Get an Server SSL Certificate like you would for a https:// web site. Get
it signed by a CA. We used Godaddy.com. Import into the IAS server's
certificate store.
On IAS, Remote Access Policy, Edit Profile, Authentication, EAP Methods,
PEAP, select your the certificate.
On XP or Vista client, in WirelessLAN properties, choose to Validate Server
certificate and choose your Trusted Root Certificate Authority.
On further note: On the Trapeze wireless LAN controller, had to tell it to
look to the RADIUS server for certificate instead of using its own self
generated one.
Those are sloppy notes, but hopefully will be enough to help others with
similar problem. regards, Russell
