Hi group,

This is kind of off-topic but I need it for my citrix.

Here at the hospital we bought a few COWs (don't laugh - it stands for
Computer On Wheels) ;).This is basically a cart with battery and PC tower
with flat screen. We bought Cisco wireless PCI network cards
(AIR-PI21AG-W-K9) for these PCs.

The problem seems to be that wireless connection only turns on after user is
logged on to the desktop. It does not matter which account you use: local to
this PC or domain - as long as you see the desktop the wireless kicks in and
works fine. Obviously I have to use user's cached credentials on this
computer.

I need to be able to log on new users to the domain on these COWs. For this
I need wireless to be up and running at the point when you press
Ctrl-Alt-Del.

We use WPA-PSK and TKIP at this moment. We will have radius server up and
running next week. Will that fix my problem?


Thanks,
