Client side default authentication settings



I'm having a tiny (but jarring) issue preventing me from rolling out
my wireless RADIUS setup. The infrastructure works and it
authenticates fine; unfortunately, when a new user connects to the
secure network for the first time, it comes up with the "Cannot find a
valid certificate" error. If you then open up the wireless network
(under Wireless Network Connection Properties: Preferred Network: and
click properties on the secure network), the EAP type in the
Authentication tab defaults to "Smart Card or other Certificate." If
you change the EAP type to Protected EAP (PEAP) and hit ok, the
computer connects, authenticates and it works just fine.

How do I make the network default to PEAP in that menu? I've looked
high and low for a place in IAS and Group Policy where it might be set
to Smart Card or other Certificate, but I've come up with nothing. Is
there a Group Policy object I can deploy to change that default, or is
it a setting in IAS?
