Look into 802.1x authentication via RADIUS and your current directory
tree (if any).  A lot of newer AP's support this level of authentication
for the reasons you've stated.

Thank you for all the help.  What I'm really looking for is a 
way to track people that connect to an unsecured wireless 
network.  I know that DHCP can be used to track them, but 
what if they figure out what IP range is being used and then 
use a static IP to connect to the network. ~ How can one 
detect these stations?  I am aware and appreciate all the 
advice on securing the network, but I'm just trying to do 
this for an experiment.

Thanks,
Kamal
