Public bug reported:
Release : Kubuntu 11.04
Version of package: unknown package
What I expected: Connect to WPA wireless
What happened: Found problem with Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem
I am posting here even though this is Kubuntu 11.04 because this may be
a problem which exists in Ubuntu 11.04 also.
I installed Kubuntu 11.04 yesterday from an iso which was created about
5 days ago. All available updates were installed also. I can access WEP
and non-secured networks with no problems, however my workplace wifi
which uses WPA PEAP with MSCHAPV2 was unable to connect. The certificate
used at my workplace is Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem. Every time I tried
to connect, it said that my password was wrong.
At first, I thought that the problem may have been with the KDE network
manager, and so I uninstalled it and installed WICD since this had
solved issues like this in the past. However, I got the same problem.
I then went on the Thawte website and downloaded a copy of the latest
version of Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem and to my surprise this is what
I got:
For the original version (the one supplied with Kubuntu 11.04) I get this:
>openssl x509 -text -in Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem

The first thing that caught my attention was the serial number, and then the
signature algorithm. The version supplied with Kubuntu is not the same as that
supplied by the official website. Once I installed the new version that I had
just downloaded, WICD was able to connect to my workplace network with no
problems.
It might be worth looking at all the certs and making sure they are up
to date.
