Wireless EAP Man in the Middle Attack

[beridor]

Can someone explain what the vulnerability is in PEAP please (I'm a simple man so semi technical terms only please).

In particular I am interested in why PEAP is percieved as vulnerable to this form of attack.

If you could direct me to a relevant article that would be great - thanks.

from the Good people at Microsoft ( cough, cough )its a little in depth but let's face it were not explaining the Birds And the Bees were explaining technology just use webopedia and find descriptions for terminology you dont understand, it will soon become clear, and you can impress people with your new technical vocabulry.
