Enable WiFi PEAP Authentication with privately signed server certificates
WM5 happily allows PEAP Authentication over WiFi, but it doesn't provide the check box that XP does to (un)select "Authenticate the server certificate". If your PEAP authentication server isn't signed with a pricey "official" certificate, WM5 will refuse to connect with an error message about not recognizing the server's certificate.
To force WM5 to accept the PEAP server's certificate without attempting any other validation, add the following registry key:
[\HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\]
"ValidateServerCert"=dword:00000000
I added this registry key and it is not working. What am i doing wrong?
