Re: [Open1x-xsupplicant] LEAP

[Chris H. <Chr...@ut...>]

There is a "free" LEAP client for Linux, but it only works if you have a
Cisco card.  (Cisco has embedded LEAP in their card firmware.)

I have a desire to take a stab at implementing LEAP.  There are opensource
server products out there, and I don't believe they have had any problems
with Cisco.  So, based on that, I wouldn't mind putting it in.  The
problem I have is that LEAP is a strange animal with it's form of
authentication.  As a result, you have to have an Access Point that
specifically supports LEAP.  (Which pretty much limits you to Cisco APs.
I had a Cisco rep tell me the other day that the LinkSys (which is owned
by Cisco now) APs can also do LEAP.)

If someone else on the list has an interest in doing this implementation,
and has access to the needed hardware, I would be happy to help them out.
(Or, if someone wants to send me some hardware, I'll do it. ;)
