    Hi 

    I would like to find out if I have macbook bind to AD and install a machine certificate (i.e. with domain\account$ as username) into it, does CPPM [machine authenticated] pick up that authentication as it would for Windows laptop?

    Thanks. 

    Regards.

    If the "common name" on the certificate is host/<machine name>, then yes.

    Hi Colin

    Thanks for the answer. Appreciate it. 

    Assuming it is not through certificate but PEAP-MSCHAPv2 used to authenticate but with the host\machinename$ format, will [machine authenticated] still pick it up? Reason is customer would like his domain-joined macbook connected to wireless but he is using PEAP-MSCHAPv2. The username was in the host\machinename$ format but CPPM sees it as [user-authenticated] instead.
