The default supplicant behavior in Windows XP is PEAP using the logged-in user's credentials.  I use 802.1x for VLAN switching and I use other methods to identify which VLAN a machine should be in, so I don't care to validate a username/password.  Can FreeRADIUS authenticate everyone in an 802.1x/PEAP environment without regard to the credentials they provide?

And the point of doing PEAP is? If you don't want to authenticate users
- then don't. Leave your ports open and let anyone connect.
