− | Setting midd_secure up as a WPA2 Enterprise network has been fairly successful but I have no idea in what version of Vista this works/does not work. You should be able to do so by setting up a network manually and editing the settings of that manually set up network.

− | | |
− | ==== Basic connection on OSX 10.4 ====
| |
− | # Click on the airport icon.
| |
− | # Select midd_secure.
| |
− | # Enter username and password.
| |
− | # Do not check the "Remember my password in my keychain" box.
| |
− | # Hit OK.
| |
− | # A window with the title "Verify Certificate" will appear. Click "Continue".
| |
− | | |
− | ==== Troubleshooting on OSX 10.4 ====
| |
− | | |
− | Sometimes OSX fails to connect to midd_secure because its "remembered" settings become corrupted and conflict with midd_secure settings. This generally shows up as a "WPA error". Use the following steps to remove all midd_secure-related settings on the computer, then you can try connecting "cleanly".
| |
− | | |
− | First, remove all wireless network connection settings:
| |
− | # Go to network connect
| |
− | :You can do this by clicking on the airport icon on the MacOS X menu and selecting "Open Internet Connect..."
| |
− | # Go to the the "802.1X" tab.
| |
− | # On the configuration option, use the drop-down menu to select "Edit Configurations..."
| |
− | # Remove all previously saved connection settings.
| |
− | # Hit OK and close Internet Connect.
| |
− | | |
− | After those steps, remove saved passwords from Keychain:
| |
− | # Go to the "Utilities" folder in the "Applications" folder
| |
− | :While in finder you may use, apple-shift-U or go->Utilities, to navigate to the utilities folder
| |
− | # Fire up "Keychain Access"
| |
− | # Look for an "oncila.middlebury.edu" certificate and delete it
| |
− | # Delete anything that says "midd_secure" or "WPA Midd_secure" on it. "Basically anything that you removed in the earlier step."
| |
− | # Close the Keychain Access application.
| |
− | | |
− | After these steps, try connecting to Midd_secure as directed above. You should be able to connect now.
| |
− | | |
− | == Mac OSX 10.5 (Leopard) ==
| |
− | | |
− | General troubleshooting steps:
| |
− | # Have customer login to his/her account. Have customer nearby during the procedure.
| |
− | # Open System Preferences => Network
| |
− | # Select Airport from the list on the left, then click the Advanced button in the lower right corner
| |
− | # Under the airport tab, delete midd_secure
| |
− | # Under the 802.1x tab delete any entries relating to midd_secure
| |
− | # Click the OK button in the lower right corner, then click the Apply button in the lower right corner
| |
− | # Open Keychain Access (Finder => Go => Utilities)
| |
− | # Select login from the list on the left, click on "All Items" in the list on the left
| |
− | # Delete any keychain entries that have midd_secure in the name.
| |
− | # Delete any keychain entries that have '''desertcat''' or '''oncilla''' in the name<br>
| |
− | # Restart
| |
− | # Connect to midd_unplugged, make sure that works
| |
− | # From the airport menu select midd_secure, enter username and password. It's recommended that you UNCHECK "remember this network"
| |
− | | |
− | Other tips:
| |
− | * midd_secure sometimes breaks because Mac OS X remembers the settings incorrectly, or remembers the customer's OLD password. If you don't let Mac OS X save the settings for midd_secure, then it won't break in the future.
