I've tested EAP-FAST under WinXP, but not with this 0.5.2 version. It
looks like you have actually been able to complete provisioning step
since wpa_supplicant was able to read a PAC. Something is then going
wrong during the TLS handshake for normal authentication:

It looks like you are using the internal EAP-FAST authentication server
in an Cisco AP. Is that the case? Which Cisco model is this and which
firmware version are you using? I tested the local authentication server
long time ago, but have been mostly testing against Cisco ACS lately.

Hmm.. OpenSSL did not like the TLS ServerHello. I don't remember seeing
this particular error before. Would it be possible for you to capture
these initial messages (ClientHello and this ServerHello) and send a
capture file for further analysis? This can be done either locally on
the client (e.g., with Ethereal) or with a wireless sniffer.
