I forgot to mention an important data point. I see via WireShark the EAPOL 
from the supplicant to the server and the server requesting identity but 
the supplicant doesn't appear to see the request.

Subject: Looking for hints re 802.1X wired


I am trouble with 802.1x wired and I am wondering whether there is some 
required characteristic of the Ethernet driver. AFAICT, I have my 
wap_supplicant running correctly and I do have wireless interfaces that work 
both AP and supplicant.


My Ethernet is:

Bart# dmesg|grep em0
em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection 7.1.8> port 0x4000-0x401f mem 
0xfdbe0000-0xfdbfffff,0xfdb00000-0xfdb7ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci11
em0: Using an MSI interrupt
em0: [FILTER]
em0: Ethernet address: 00:26:55:d8:47:b5

Bart# ifconfig em0
em0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

options=19b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4>
         ether 00:26:55:d8:47:b5
         media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
         status: active


The command I run is:

wpa_supplicant -ddd -iem0 -Dwired -c wpa.conf


My conf file has changed many times but its present content is:

Bart# cat wpa.conf

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_eth1

ap_scan=no


network={

#       bssid=00:17:8b:05:39:8f

         key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
         eap=TLS
eapol_flags=0
#       pairwise=CCMP TKIP
#       group=CCMP TKIP
         identity="foo"

         ca_cert="/root/ml.test.06Jan2011/CAd.cert.cer"
         client_cert="/root/ml.test.06Jan2011/CAd.ml.cert.pem"
         private_key="/root/ml.test.06Jan2011/CAd.ml.priv.pem"
         private_key_passwd="frogger"
}
