I think. Connect to UANA-Setup and go through it's suggested steps. At one point, it will start advising that if you're using Windows you should use Internet Explorer to download a certificate. On that page, there is a link for Firefox/Opera/Other users to get the certificate. In Firefox, click the link, and you will be prompted about a certificate. Examine the certificate, which should come up with a window with some tabs. On one of the tabs, there is a button at the bottom called Export, which can be used to save the certificate. Click that, and you'll get a save dialog box. Clicking the Advanced or browse or whatever button will also show the type of file you're saving, which for Ubuntu needs to be an X509 PEM format. Is this the right certificate? Maybe, but I don't have the time today (or this week) to check, so someone else can.
Also, looks like Intel wireless cards iwl4965 & iwl3945 can't connect with Linux to UANA, due to the particular authentication method in use.

I upgraded my system to Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid, and the network manager came with it is broken. I used Wicd instead of it. Please refer to its website for installation on Ubuntu.
And, there is no WPA2-PEAP authentication profile for fresh installation so I need to create one myself. The following is what I wrote, JUST COPY THE LINES BETWEEN ******:
****************
name = WPA2-PEAP
author =
version = 1
require identity *Username domain *Domain password *Password ca_cert *Path_to_CA_Cert
-----
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
ssid="$_ESSID"
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=CCMP
eap=PEAP
identity="$_DOMAIN\$_IDENTITY"
password="$_PASSWORD"
ca_cert="$_CA_CERT"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
****************
You will need the converted PEM certificate for authentication.
And, pleaser refer to Wicd website for how to add an authentication profile.
