Thanks again for your response. I will upgrade to OpenSolaris for 802.1X :).

However, I did not find wpa_supplicant Solaris 10 package on sunfreeware.com Thanks, Meenakshi -----Original Message----- From: Quaker.Fang at Sun.COM [mailto:quaker.f...@sun.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2007 9:38 PM To: Kaushik, Meenakshi (SC100:8826) Cc: laptop-discuss at opensolaris.org Subject: Re: [laptop-discuss] Wpa_supplicant for wired 802.1X support on Solaris 8 Meenakshi Kaushik wrote: >Hi Quaker, > >Thanks for a very quick response. > >I am not familiar with OpenSolaris workspace.
