how to use wpa_supplicant on wpa network with peap andcredentialing

[Maureen Lai]

I tried it without certificate file on my system right now and it works.

I just commented out "ca_cert="/etc/cert/ca.pem" in wpa_supplicant conf
file.

Now I'm sure you DONOT need a certificate for connection. :)

The certificates need to be installed manually. It wouldn't be generate
automatically in xp.

so i DO need a certificate?  once i get it working in xp, should the
file be local in XP and i can get it from there?
