way round Connecting Macs to our wired and wireless 802.1x networks just =
happen and its windows machines that we have issues with ( although I =
have to say that our staff / student images are o.k. its the standalone =
systems we have issues with) . We're using XpressConnect as our primary =
configuration media.
