Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you on to the netw
I use a third party Radius server - Free Radius .
I try to authenticate an Windows XP with SP2 machine in a wireless network (to an acces point Linksys) The user certificate on the XP machine has "Client Authentication" Enhanced Key Usage - and the PKCS#12 file is imported in the Personal Container of the current user. The radius server has a certificate with "Server Authentication" Enhanced Key Usage. The certification authority certificate is imported in Trusted Root on the XP machine and is trusted also by the Radius server. The acces point is set up for the use of the Radius server. When I connect to the wireless network the an error appears on the XP machine "Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you on to the network" The configuration is made upon the following document www.freeradius.org/doc/EAPTLS Can you help me to resolve this problem(error)? Thank You Ovidiu Pismac MCSE ID 2836366 |

Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you on to the netw
I have implemented 802.1X without any problem using Microsoft Server as the
IAS but am not familiar with the product you mention. Offhand what I would do is logon as the user and use the mmc certificates snapin for user to look in the personal\certificates folder to make sure that the needed certificate is there and that is shows that the private key is also present on the general page of the certificate. Also check for other problems with the certificate such as making sure it has valid date and it shows as being trusted in the certification path. Do the same on the radius computer for the computer certificate using the mmc snapin for computer certificate. Each computer must also trust the CA that issued the certificate used for the other end of authentication which usually is the same CA. It may also help to look in the logs via Event Viewer on each computer for any other helpful messages that may provide a clue or any other logging that the radius server application may do. The wireless network cards need to be 802.1X capable also and it often helps to configure XP wireless to manage the wireless connection rather than the utility from the wireless network card's publisher. --- Steve "anonymous" wrote in message ...
