Re: [PATCH] Adding EAP-MSCHAPv2 support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The RFC draft maybe long expired, but Microsoft still has EAP-MSCHAPv2
enabled by default settings. The problem is that if EAP gets
negotiated (because the client supports it), EAP-MSCHAPv2 will
typically be selected. A workaround would be to disable EAP
negotiation on the client side to allow MSCHAPv2 to be selected and
that be only if the Microsoft server is configured to allow that. It's
mostly a compatibility problem for end-users, especially when using
SSTP.
