Thanks for taking the time to reply Ivan - I appreciate your help.

Don't both solutions have the same risk (my first idea was to use a 2nd eap 
instance with the public CA)?  I understand the risk; but, in this case, it's a 
tradeoff between presenting a cert signed by a public CA (makes it easier for 
these outside users to configure our wireless), have all guest users not 
validate the server cert (even worse) or distribute our internal CA's cert to 
every guest user (not logistically practical).

Thanks again Ivan.
