Hi All,

We recently did some testing of Radiator with an interesting new Radius 
authentication system. I thought some of you might be interested in it.

Alfa and Ariss have a MOBAC client that works with Windows XP inside PEAP 
802.1x wireless authentication.

When a user tries to authenticate a wireless link, it proxies the radius 
request to a MOBAC server. The server responds with a challenge and sends a 
one-time-password by SMS to the mobile phone number registered for that user. 
The user then enters the password into the MOBAC wireless cleint and viola: 
the wireless connection is authenticated.

Works fine with Radiator, and might be interesting for some special 
applications. Web site is http://www.alfa-ariss.com and the e-mail address 
is info at alfa-ariss.com

Cheers.
