No, I'm not kidding. Our college recently switched to EAP-TTLS with the authentication done with LDAP. It works natively in every modern linux distro and Mac OS X, but not Windows. It was great fun to see windows users running frantically to linux machines for downloading the necessary software.
Then again, in my college (IISER-Kolkata, India), 'IT guys' are mostly physicist-cum-linux-geeks. So they are not at all apologetic about this kind of stunts.
