 |
|
Hello people.
i am in the process of installing gentoo onto an old HP pavillion dv5000.
i have access to a cabled internet connection, but i need to connect via mschapv2 to get my base system installed. ive had no luck gentting internet so far.
so far i have solved it by setting up a identical system with the livedvd shell in vmware player on my newer computer running on win7.
i use it to fetch all distfiles, for so transferring them via a usb hard drive to the HP. this process is time consuming and if i change anything i suddently dont have the neccesary distfiles.
the question is: how do i set up the cabled network to authenticate using peap-mschapv2?
i was hoping anyone could point me in the right direction, i have been googling and installing all day. |

| wpa_supplicant does support wired ethernet too. So create a wpa_supplicant.conf for peap/mschapv2, then invoke it with -D wired parameter. |

it worked like a charm 
/etc/conf.d/net
| Code: |
modules="wpa_supplicant"
wpa_supplicant_eth0="-Dwired"
|
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
| Code: | ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=root
ap_scan=0
fast_reauth=1
network={
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
identity="username@domain.com"
anonymous_identity="username@domain.com"
password="password"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
priority=2
} |
then commands:
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant -D wired -i eth0 /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf & |
