wpa not working with server ca

[Rocci]

Thanks Heaps Simon,
That worked for me.
However, that variable should be include_tls_length=1, and not 
includes_tls_length=1.
I think Jouni had accidentally mispelled that variable in his posted 
reply to your original post regarding this problem.
You might want to change the spelling in your config and try again.

I wonder why I didn't need include_tls_length=1 until now. Perhaps IT 
services changed something on their wifi network.
Anyway, it works and I'm back on the UOW WiFi network using WPA.

For those that may find it useful, here is my wpa_supplicant config:

eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1

network={
        ssid="ACHERNAR-BG"
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        eap=PEAP
        pairwise=TKIP
        group=TKIP
        identity="myusername"
        password="mypassword"
        ca_cert="/etc/ssl/certs/Thawte_Server_CA.pem"
        phase1="peaplabel=0 include_tls_length=1"
        phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
        priority=1
}

Hope this helps others as it did me.
