Non-Domain Join MacOS to Wifi - Windows NPS, AD, NDS, SCEP

Trying to deploy device based certs to Non Domain MacOS devices, which will automatically connect to wifi. We have the following configured:

 

  • AD (Ghost object created for the MacOS Device)
  • ADCS (separate certificate template created for Mac)
  • NPS
  • NDES

 

When we deploy the cert from Jamf, the cert deploys and installs on the device and I can see it’s issued with the correct template in ADCS. When we try connecting to wifi, we see ‘The specified user account does not exist. 

 

What am I missing? The domain controller is 2016, ghost object created, network policies created, we just can’t seem to bind the cert to the ghost object therefor it does not authenticate. Windows auth is obviously fine via the same NPS server.

 

Any suggestions?
