RADIUS Authentication for Wireless

G

Guest

Is it possible to set up 2K RADIUS Server to authenticate wireless users by username and password. I want to authenticate users through the server's local users accounts, not Active Directory. Basically I want to allow users to access the network that are authenticated and deny those who are not. I am not worried about encryption so I don't need 802.1x. The WAPs I am using are Cisco 1200 and 3Com 8000. Any ideas?

Win2000 Server includes a RADIUS server if that is what you are
asking.

As long as you have a RADIUS client (access point), you should be
able to use them together.

Although it is common to use the RADIUS server domain to authenticate,
the server itself is also a choice -- servers in WinNT are treated somewhat
like "domains of one."
