Hi Derek and packetfence-users -

We have a version 3 signed certificate from godaddy.com specifically named
and set for our packetfence server.  It works perfectly for https access to
the admin console on packetfence.  But our 802.1X connections do not seem
to use this cert, showing it as "Not Verified"

Our existing 802.1x deployment, that works on a Microsoft IAS server
running .  We are passing AD domain credentials to authenticate. The
certificate on this server works fine.

Our android users connect with PEAP/MSCHAPV2 just fine.
Our iphone users connect they will get a Certificate page saying "Not
Verified"  - Is there a way to have this say "verified" ?

Maybe I'll just not talk about linux and windows yet. :(

Thanks so much for the advice.
