Yes, version 2 templates are only available from a W2003 Enterprise CA. The
link below for Windows 2003 WIFI has a bunch of articles. You can use the
older templates for users for users and for computers to obtain the
necessary certificates [it worked for me]. It is much easier to set up on
XP, though MS does have 802.1X download for Windows 2000. I have not had
much luck with WPA using Windows 2000. XP has WPA supplicant built in and
you will need the Funk supplicant [ not free last time I checked] or one
from the wireless card manufacturer IF they provide one. You may just want
to use PEAP which does not require certificates on the clients. With PEAP
you still will have much improved security due to dynamic WEP. EAP-TLS is
nice however on that it insures that more than a logon name/password is
required to gain access to the WAP which can keep unauthorized computers off
the network. I believe there is also a wireless newsgroup for Microsoft that
you may post in to see if others have tried what you want top do. --- Steve
