802.1x / EAP Validate Server Certificate



Hello,
Do any of you wireless / 802.1x experts know how to tell the CE EAP
supplicant, for example PEAP, not to validate the server certificate?

I'm using 802.1x with 802.11 (Zero Config service), and I have found the
registry keys and documentation for
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Comm/EAP/Extension/25/InvokeUserNameDialog etc.

I have also found the keys
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Comm/EAPOL/Config/[your_SSID]/Password , etc.

However, I can find no way to tell it not to validate the server
certificate. (A very bad security practice, I know, but one some
customers/consumers demand.)

(Also I'm not sure how the PEAP password is encoded, but I'm guessing
regular NT hash.)



Thanks for any pointers.

Best regards,

Erik
