I've got a handful of windows clients. I'm most concerned about the Windows 7 machines, but there are a few Vista, and even an XP client. I want to deploy "Machine account certificates" for wifi authentication, so machines will be able to connect to the network BEFORE the user logs on (mainly for accessing remote shares), but only some of these machines are connected to the local DOMAIN (Samba 3, not overly relevant I don't think). What I would like to know is what should, or must, or what have you, the CN or DN attribute on the certificates for these systems look like to be used for machine authentication. I've tried just placing certificates with cn=hostname,... to the certificate store for the machine account, but they're never used, and the machine complains about not having a certificate when I try t connect to wifi.

Also, most of these machines are wifi, though I plan to deploy radius on the switch soon (once the machine auth with wifi is working).

I know this is a little off topic, but as it all relates to radius, I hope someone here will know the proper answer(s) or where to find clear concise documentation explaining this.
