Can anyone tell me how to modify 802.1x settings on XP
Pro wired ethernet NICs across an enterprise given a W2K
server environment?

XP Pro provides an 802.1x authentication tab for "wired"
ethernet NICs. I am trying to find a way to change these
settings on workstations across the enterprise. The
latest group policy extension in 2003 server for 802.1x
wireless configuration has an authentication settings tab
but it has no effect on the workstations presumably
because it requires a wireless NIC. This is
disappointing because 802.1x applies to ethernet as well.
In fact it was designed for it. Is there a solution here
for W2K or W2K3?
