About a year ago, someone asked this list about 802.1x. As far as I can tell, nobody ever answered. So, I'm going to ask again. So, 802.1x: "port-based access control for 802", or similar. It would be interesting (to me) to be able to build a 802.1x-based access control server on Linux. It might also be interesting to tie this in with the firewalling in linux. You can even use it to distribute keys for 802.11 WEP, mediating the recent cracking efforts on WEP. Typically a RADIUS server is used on the back-end. Any interest in this from one or more of you out there? Is this even the right list? If not, where?
