I was incorrect, each building is it's own site in AD & it's own subnet, which is a /16 on a private class A. On Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 8:43 PM, Robert Portvliet < robert.portvliet at gmail.com> wrote:
That was going to be my next move, mirror the switchport the AP is plugged into & take a capture of the auth attempt. (I'll do that tomorrow morning) Like I said I'm coming into this a bit after the fact & didn't do the initial setup, but yes the cert is self signed & generated using Microsoft CA (I'll look into the settings further though), the clients are all Vista btw. As far as the network, it's flat with layer 3 routing only in the core switch, each building is on it's own vlan, but the wireless vlan is the same no matter what building you are in, as far as AD goes there's only one site, each building is an OU under that. I'm more of a Linux\Unix guy so I'm a bit light in the AD end of things, I think it might be something to do with policy, but according to the systems engineer you should be getting the same policy no matter where you go. Thanks much for the help!

AD sites? Lastly you mentioned certifcates are you using a self signed on the Radius server, MS CA? If MS CA what are your GO settings for the Radius and Certs (have seen issues with MS CA and "verification" on XP so just a hunch on my part.

In the building local to the Radius server, the machine willauthenticateto the Radius server using the machine name without issue, however intheother buildings the same machine (even using the same access point) will never try to pass the machine name to authenticate.. it passes the user name, which works if we allow that method of authentication, but it'snotwhat we're after obviously. The strange thing is I see no trace in the Radius server log of it even trying the machine name and the policy the machine receives should bethesame in each building. For the Radius server I am using NPS on win2k8. the client machinesareVista (latest patch level), AP's are HP ProCurve, physical media issinglemode fiber between the buildings. I came into this a little late in the game, from what I can tell everything seems to be configured correctly, but I'm getting the feelingI'mmissing something stupid, lol Thanks in advance! _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom at mail.pauldotcom.com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com_______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom at mail.pauldotcom.com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
