Hi,
We're starting to see a trickle of auth problems again. Our huge uplift in server performance and extensive tweaking had apparently just pushed the boundary back, not solved the problem.
we invested in EAP-TLS this year - so the PEAP crush is less of an issue (over 60% of clients are now EAP-TLS but clients configured over past years are still PEAP until they have issues and the users get their devices reconfigured). however, this performance improvement is still of interest - and there are some subtle tweaks that can be done to improve the ntlm_auth (and Cisco wireless controller) behaviour
So I can confirm we're interested in running with this code. I'll probably patch it in locally if it doesn't make it into 3.0.x
Its likely to go into 3.0.x - its 2.2.x thats not likely to be touched alan
