I installed my certs on my Android phones... it asked for the password for the key, andI was off... just set it to 802.1x TLS and it worked.
Ok.
Now, on my Nook Color, I was able to add my cert, but this time, it only let me choose 802.1x EAP. That's fine I thought, but then it was looking for a username/password for a user in my MySQL database on the radius server. That's fine with me too, but I am trying to understand why that one device was the only one that wanted a username/password.
That's because the Nook is not doing EAP-TLS, but rather something like EAP-TTLS with PAP (according to Google). So yes, you'll need to add a username and password to your server for the Nook to use.
Now, on Ubuntu, if I choose PEAP, it only asks for the cacert plus a use/pass from my mysql database.
Correct. PEAP needs a username and password.
