  It's very experimental.  Some people have gotten it to work, but I
don't think it's ready for production use.

  No.  EAP-TNC is designed to be run as an authorization method *after*
the user has been authenticated.  It *cannot* be run all by itself
inside of a TTLS tunnel.

  You can run it inside of the TTLS tunnel after another EAP method has
been executed.  You may have to edit the source code to get this to work.
