Hi all, (especially Microsoft)

We currently try to integrate our Smart Card to be used in Wireless EAP-TLS
authentication.
Our Smart Card is currently is used for Microsoft Windows Certificate Logon.
To support the EAP-TLS, we add Client Authentication to the Extended Key
Usage (EKU).
But we are failed. The Microsoft complain the "Windows was unable to find a
certificate to log you on the network XXXX".

Upon this error, we are trying to use certificate from Certificate Store.

Certificate #1:
EKU=Client Authentication
Key Usage=Digital Signature, keyEncipherment, keyAgreement

MS Windows do not complain when we are using Certificate#1.

We delete Certificate#1 from Certificate store and import Certificate# 2.

Certifcate #2:
EKU=Client Authentication, Smart Card Logon
Key Usage=Digital Signature, keyEncipherment, keyAgreement

And ha ha ......

The MS Windows complain "Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you
on the network XXXX".

Why does the Smart Card Logon on EKU make the EAP-TLS failed ?

We need to this two EKU on one Certificate because currently Microsoft
called our CSP using "default container" for Smart Card Logon and EAP-TLS.
And we cannot differentiate who is actually calling our CSP.

Has anyone face this problem before ?

Can someone from Microsoft confirm about this problem ?

Thank in advance for any help or idea......

Rudy

Sorry to state the obvious, but did you troubleshoot the certificate in all
other ways? Try creating new/fresh certificates? Compare them to make sure
that the only difference is the EKU? Etc? Make sure it's in the right store?
Are you seeing this only with the smartcard EKU or does the problem occur
when any EKU is added to the Client Authentication?

What method are you using to generate the certificates?

Are the certificates usable with EAP-TLS and a RAS/VPN connection or does
the problem only surface with wireless?

Thanks.

If you want, I can try to take a look at the 2 certificates to compare them.

i do have about same problem, although it might be different.. i'm not 100%
following everything here.. but here is what i have

once, i switch my router from WEP to WAP-PSK, my computer displays following

Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you to the network

i however did not create any certificates, i'm not really sure which one
exactly do i need to be honest..

but the main problem is that after i get connected i lose my connection
after 1-2 mins tops and the only thing i have left to do is to turn radio
off and turn it back to be able to connect for another minute or so..

is it suppose to be like that? or am i just misconfigure something ( it
needs that certificiate ) if so can you refer me to your website where it
describes which certificate do i need to create, where to put it and how to
create it? basically step by step guide..

thank you so much

You should turn off 802.1x authentication if you are not using it.

This will make the problem go away. Are you sure you set it to WPA-PSK and
not WPA?

Hi Carl,

Yes for sure the two certificate only different on the EKU and both of
them is imported to Current User Certificate Store.

On my testing, I do not use the Certificate from the Smart Card.
Instead I create the Certificate and import PKCS#12 to the Current User
Certificate Store.

The Certificate is created by our own product and it is working fine so
far. We can do a Certificate Logon correctly.

I can send the two certificates to you if you want but could we do this
offline.

I could not get your email address since I post this message from
google. Can you please send your email to rudy@guardmydata-nospam.com ?
(Please remove '-nospam' from the email address)
