Ubuntu using WiCD to connect to WPA2 access point authenticated by Windows RADIUS PEAP/MSCHAPv2

Assuming you have WiCD installed and working with simpler access points.

First you will need to aquire the root CA certificate and convert it to a suitable format

sudo openssl x509 -inform der -in inl-ca.cer -out /etc/ssl/certs/inl-ca.pem

We store the converted version in a central place as above.
We then create a new WiCD template:

/etc/wicd/encryption/templates/peap-mschapv2

name = PEAP with MSCHAPv2
author = Satish Vellanki [www.cs.ttu.edu]
version = 1

Prerequisites:

You will to have setup a domain controller, an ISA server, an Enterprise root CA (all 3 are part of Windows server 2003), a wireless access point that does RADIUS and a wifi client that understands RADIUS.

Server Setup:

On your ISA server you will need to request a Certificate from your root CA (see link 3 below) and install it. You should also install the root CA certificate if you haven't already.
