It may be just me, but when they told you to upgrade they probably meant
to the latest 2.X release.

Is there a specific reason that you need to stay on a 1.X release?   I
only ask because you may be needlessly complicating your life by using
ancient software.

Ok. i made an upgrade, but when i test it without certificate
verification Windows 7 is not asking me for user and password, but sends
"host/name_of_the_host". I unchecked in connect properities to use same
login and password as I log in into machine..

  Uh... upgrade.  1.1.2 is *very* old.  It's very likely that it won't
work with recent versions of Windows.  Fixes to work around Windows
"issues" went into later versions of the server, and aren't in 1.1.2.

For tests I generated server certificate from my own CA. Both
certificates CA certificate, and server certificate was transferred to
freeradius server and configured in eap.conf file in tls section. I made
also other configurations to use peap protocol and mschapv2.

certificate repo in system. I checked all required options in connection
properities like (use WPA2 with AES, PEAP, verify server certificate
also with root CA certificate which was imported before). When I tried
to connect from XP client everything is fine, client is authorized and
connection works without problem. But from Windows 7 client its not.
Same configuration, same settings, and I get error in radius.log:

  <shrug>  Those error messages are pretty definitive.

  In any case, I wouldn't bother trying to track down the problem.
Install 2.1.10, and then follow the EAP / Windows instructions on my web
site: http://deployingradius.com
