PEAP authentication

[fooch]

I have just gotten a new Dell Axim, with the Dell CF Wireless card. Do any of you know if these support PEAP authentication.

I know that on my laptop PEAP is supported by default as well as Smart Card. I have no experience with PDA's though and your help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I seriously doubt it, but don't know for certain.

As far as I know, the only vendor that has branched into any version of EAP on these devices is Cisco. And I'm sure they're using LEAP.

If someone else can prove me wrong, I'd be more than glad to learn from the experience.

The only reason I ask is because I know that Microsoft is really concerned about getting these devices more widely used in the Enterprise. They have made PEAP natively available in W2k and Windows XP. I guess I was just hoping that they would make it standard on Pocket PC 2002. I'm afraid that as long as they (Microsoft) don't support this type of authenication in handheld devices they will not be more widely accepted among enterprise users.
