John, we've only done limited testing, but so far, authenticating with 802.1x AD machine accounts on Windows 7 has worked successfully for us. Just a thought.

Actually it does work when I have that set.  I tried that earlier today.
Often in a university though machines are on the network that are not
part of the AD domain, like the first two I was working with.  Its crazy
that Windows won't respond the the first eap packet from the switch
unless credentials are configured to be provided automatically.
Wireless prompts just fine.  I did some research and it seems that
802.1x on wired is still unreliable.  I found 7 patches to install and
it still doesn't work right. I wonder why wireless is fine but wired
isn't.  The protocol has been around since 2002 or so.  It should be
fully baked by now.

    Have a look at this document,  it may help.   Specifically look at
    section 1.1.10 -  This would seem what “MIGHT” be missing ?      How
    are you disconnecting and reconnecting from the network ?   Are you
    unplugging the cable ?   If you actually logout, you should get
    prompted for a new login.

    Best of luck !

    That's not good.  I want to keep Admin-Edge.  I do have 802.1x
    listed as first.  802.1x is working just fine if I store my
    credentials within the supplicate.  My only problem is that I cannot
    get prompted by Windows.

    There may be some switch config settings that might help.  Try
    setting 8021x as first in priority for authentication.  I also have
    seen admin-edge enabled on the end system port (spantree) cause
    8021x to fail also.

    Working to get 802.1x going on Win 7 wired ports.  I have it working
    if I save my credentials in Windows.  If I don't save my credentials
    Windows never prompts me for credentials.  Packet captures suggest
    that the client never responds to the initial eap packet from the
    switch so the switch never sends the challenge.  I have the Wired
    AutoConfig service running.  Any ideas?  I've been messing with all
    of the settings.  I see this happening on two machines both of which
    do fine on wireless 802.1x.

    I am using B5s and NAC as my RADIUS server.

    Thanks
