LSU is about to roll out a new wireless encryption scheme with "limited 
support" for "unix."

The schemes are,  "Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) for 
authentication and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) with Temporal Key Integrity 
Protocol (TKIP) for encryption."  wpa_supplicant and x_supplicant are the 
recommended applications to make this work, but the hardware list looks tiny 
and most of them were shown as not working with Fedora in a testing chart I 
saw.  

Does anyone have experience with this?  

I found this,

and would like to know what you think.
