As a follow on-Wired GP policy wasn't added until Vista, so you need at least that platform to configure this through GP. You can configure wireless 802.1x but you have to do it on a Server 2003 box because XP doesn't come with the bits (or you can view a FAQ entry I did on getting it to work in XP here: (http://www.gpoguy.com/FAQs.htm#General and then search on Wireless) Darren From: gptalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gptalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of hans straat Sent: Friday, December 21, 2007 2:54 PM To: gptalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [gptalk] Re: 802.1x and GPO Jonathan, Welcome to the gptalk. What OS are we talking here. 2000/2003 or even 2008 rc1? _____ Subject: [gptalk] 802.1x and GPO Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2007 16:26:46 -0500 From: JFinkbiner@xxxxxxx To: gptalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx I am new to using these lists, so bear with me if I newbie it up a bit. I am trying to figure out if there is any way I can get GPO to control 802.1x Authentication behavior for wired networks. The options are clearly there for wired networks in the GUI for Windows however I have found little to no information on the GPO side of things. I have found that there should be GPO controls for wireless networks, but I do not see them where they are supposed to be found (under Computer Configuration > Windows Security). Any ideas?
