In the end it seems my problem was with the ACS certificate, if I generate a 
cert with key-length 2048 (the default) my NAC doesn't work with the ASA + 
EZVPN even though my NAC worked with L2-IP and L2-802.1x.
With a ACS cert with key-length 1024 my NAC work with the ACS

First check, the NAC is working with a router (NAC L3 IP). After conforming, 
then try with ASA.

ASA NAC is very simple. When the tunnel is up, ASA applies the default acl to 
the client and probes the client for CTA presence. If the client has the CTA, 
normal NAC authorization happens else clientless authorizes happen.

Hi Kingsley
Thanks for the replies.  I tested it last night at home with the ASA running on 
GNS3 and it worked fine with the same config (I cut-and-pasted it) on the ASA, 
my problems yesterday was on a real ASA.  I used my laptop with XP and a 
virtual XP machine and it worked with both
My Setup:

1.       Meetinghouse disabled on all interfaces.  (CTA with supplicant 
installed)

2.       Split-tunnel ACL only has the VLAN on the inside of the ASA, not the 
ASA's outside interface

3.       On GNS3 I have version 8.0.2 and on the real ASA in our lab on 8.0.4

I will go try again with the real ASA a bit later.

For me it worked without meeting house. Can you try enabling it on the physical 
interface and see, if it's working.

Before that on the Window's command prompt, type "net start" and see, if CTA is 
running.

Hi Kingsley
Yes I did have a split-acl, I changed that now to tunnelall. But I'm seeing the 
same.  The packet capture on my VPN interface shows traffic from the ASA to my 
VPN assigned IP on udp 21862 but the PC isn't responding.
Should the Meetinghouse client be enabled on 1. the VPN adapter, and 2. On the 
LAN adapter?

I guess, you are using split acl. If yes, you need to tune the split acl to 
allow a specific traffic from the client in order for the ASA to detect the 
CTA. Else configure the ASA for full tunneling, you can see that NAC is working.

To confirm that run wireshark on the VPN interface of the client and you can 
see that the client is replying to the NAC requests from ASA. Remember, that 
you can run wireshark on the vpn interface only when the tunnel is up.

The reason is with split tunneling, the client response to the NAC response may 
be not going in the tunnel. You need to make it to go through tunnel.

Mostly the split tunnel should have an extra ACE permitting traffic to ASA 
outside interface on which you have enabled crypto map.

Hi
I'm testing NAC over EZVPN on an ASA.
My problem is that my XP client keeps on saying that it doesn't have the CTA 
installed.  I have read a few other threads about this as well but still no 
luck.

I've installed the ACS's cert in the root store on XP using ctacert.exe
I've tried enabling the meetinghouse client on the VPN adapter, and also with 
it disabled.
I've tried with CTA without the 802.1x supplicant as well.
My PRE_NAC ACL has permit ip any any
My ASA's outside interface has permit any any

Any further suggestions?
