eap-tls, hostapd with XP client and linux client

[Ulf Jakobsson]

Has no one else had this problem?

Maybe this is a solution (didn't work for me):

I have also tested with 2 different radius servers (one linux, one 
windows), the problem is the same.
Maybe it has something to with that I just use 802.1x ?
