Is there any way to un-break it? I've tried to add server.cer to Vista 
however this doesn't help. I understand that it's Vista's and XP SP3's 
fault however I might be forced because of that to use Microsoft's 
solutions.

Is there anyone who use FreeRADIUS w/ Vista for _WIRED_ connections?

I know this is not the place to ask such questions however is there any 
way to check what might "getting in the way"?

Or is there any other software besides Vista's built-in PEAP and 
securew2 TTLS which can be used w/ 802.1x?

Kind regards,
