Ah, PEAP. See our earlier discussion of LEAP, and in particular, Christian's comments in his response. You may be able to accomplish this

Am I constrained to live on the darkside when I want to connect to this network?
  
      

Possibly, for the short to medium term. Have a look at http://hostap.epitest.fi/wpa_supplicant/ et seq, particularly the sample conf. Again, our build is based upon version 0.5.7 of the supplicant; the current version is 0.6.9; it's possible that PEAP support was not functional at the time of the port.

Good luck, and please report your findings!
    

Sigh.  Doesn't sound simple.  For openers, I still need to get it working under XP (when I tried to register, I found myself at a website with a lot of complex instructions, oriented towards having Windows manage the connection.  I *think* I was able to map them into what I have to do with Access Connections on the thinkpad, but need to get back there to try it out.

  

Plus, for good measure, my Linux partition (Centos) won't even work with the wireless, so that's not an option until I can find a way to get that fixed... :-(
