Hi Farja,

I just checked with the ldap admin and he told me passwords are stored
with SHA encryption and not cleartext. ( can't change them to clear text)

Does that means there is no way to make TTLS/PEAP/MSCHAPv2 work with it??

If I use TTLS/PAP from a Mac OS laptop, it works fine, but I'm stuck with
the windows laptops as they have PEAP/MSCHAPv2 only.

Any workaround?

Thanks
Wassim.
