Modern security and wifi standards say we have to move to certificates but that’s a tall order for many, particularly if we need to replicate the user-level identification of a humble password.
Updating the old ghost computer account sync script to get NPS working with Azure AD / Entra-joined devices again, but it’s a last gasp.
