Forget M$. Windooze is not able to do authentication BEFORE logon. Only after
logon the possibilty to authenticate to the network exists. So much to the
logic of M$.

Use some 3rd party tool. I had good experience with Meetinghouse 801.1x
client.

Alan,
maybe this behaviour is "normal" because you want to use a "user" authentication (you should provide you username and you pwd). However, somewhere in the network card configuration there is a flag that looks like "use computer name to authenticate" that should be used when no username/pwd pairs are available.
I hope this could help you.
I'm trying to setup this environment (more or less) too, but I have found some problems in mschap module attempting to authenticate a wireless client using PEAP. Could you tell me something about the configuration you use?
Thanks,
Yuri
