can vLite cause 802.1x authentication errors?

[shameimaru]

I never had such problem with other installs sans vLite, and thanks to brevity (or the lack of useful information ) of error message, I can only suspect whatever services/system related choices I have made with vLite. Both "Wired AutoConfig" and "Extensible Authentication Protocol" are present and running, I wonder what else could cause something like this?

When I create a random WEP network and change the security type to 802.1x, the available network authentication menu goes blank (I need EAP-MSCHAP v2). Any thoughts? Thanks!

hmm... looks like there is little more to it than I thought; I brought the laptop back and tried WEP connection at home and it still couldn't connect. Oh well

[oskingen]

keep windows event log, update your drivers

[shameimaru]

would I have to start anew from an unadelerated version of vista? or is there a simpler way to add event log? thx!

edit: I burnt a new copy already, hope that does the trick. the drivers were the latest when I tried last time.

made a new one

[shameimaru]

thanks, it definitely was the event log. I am typing on that very computer as of now.

btw, does anyone know if there is a x64 compatible VPN client other than NCP Secure Entry Client? Shame on Cisco for ignoring the 64bit movement
