Re: Computer account issue in IMC/UAM for 802.1x authentication

Glad to help. I have posted 2 docs one with LDAP setup and one with computer account setup. 

 

Computer account is a built in user, so one username handles all computer, with separate login names. A screen shot in computer account doc shows this.

 

LDAP synchs only users not computers. The  virtual computer proxies authentication I beleive to AD.

 

All examples in HP documents show only certificate option - maybe they prefer us to use them ;)

 

But if the network adapater configuration is I describe eralier with both user and computer authentication set, then pick EAP-PEAP not TLS and this will work. 

 

Hope all this helps

THANKS Neil!!!

 

Now I see clear. I have to add this one Computer Account and this one handles (over the MSCHAPv2 Server) all the machine auth requests in my NW... It's not necessary to import or sync the machine accounts from the MS AD Server as it is a must for "normal" User Accounts.

 

Interesting design :-|

 

Thanks for the Screen Shots!!!
