Not totally in the way you want. You can use ipsec with certificate
authentication that will not allow a computer to access another computer
unless it has an ipsec certificate. Otherwise you would need to look into
802.1x authentication which will not allow a computer access to the switch
port until it is authenticated with a computer certificate via an IAS
server. However 802.1x require operating systems and switches that are
802.1x capable [ affordable these days] and the use of a Certificate
Authority and an IAS server on the network which W2K or W2003 can all do. If
you want to read more about 802.1x see the links below. --- Steve

works almost the same for wired neworks but instead of wireless access
points, 802.1x switches are used and user certificates are not required..
