WPA-2 (WPA Enterprise) fails with the new kernel(s) using ndiswrapper
and wpa_supplicant. I haven't tried other authentication modes because
that entails changes in the wireless setup which I am loathe to make right
now. (It's a Broadcom mini pci card, so I have to use ndiswrapper with this
Dell laptop. Bummer!).

Rebuilding the newest wpa_supplicant rpm from the FC5 source rpm's and
the latest and greatest ndiswrapper from tarball does not help. The old
kernel still connects nicely and the new kernel still refuses to authenticate to
the radius. Everything else is happy with the radius. Running the -dd mode
on wpa_supplicant gives me a lot of data which seems to point to an
inability to process key data with the new kernel.

Has anyone gotten the ndiswrapper/wpa_supplicant combination to work on
a fully updated RH EL 4.4 system? Anyone with similar issues on the new
kernel?

This thread on nahant-list may help...
