Wireless, what else?
I was asked to implement a wireless Access Point in our office. I am
currently running 2 Windows 2003 Domain Controllers with DNS, a DHCP server, File Servers and an ISA 2000 Firewall. I bought a Orinoco Proxim 600 Access Point that supports RADIUS, WPA etc... Since we do not currently utilize certificates, can I "get away" with enabling WPA and feel somewhat confident that I am secure? Does WinXP Pro SP1 (soon to be SP2) support WPA? Do/how do I know if the Wireless NICS I have support WPA???? How did you all implement a secure wireless environment???? A lot, I know...THANKS! Sean HelpPls |

Re: Wireless, what else?
WPA will be included in XPSP2 when it releases.
Here are links for the WPA package and the Wireless rollup package for XPSP2. KB for WPA (815485) http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;815485 Here is the KB for 826942, which addresses some additional issues related to Wireless Networking and the WPA update. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=826942 "Jack" <www.ezlan.net/sendto.html> wrote in message news:%... > Hi. > > Support for WPA in WinXP is available to download from Microsoft for long > time. > > Log to this page there is instructions for Wireless Security as well the > link to Microsoft WPA download. > > Jack (MVP-Networking). > > > > > > "HelpPls" <> wrote in message > news:... >> I was asked to implement a wireless Access Point in our office.
