I have a ticket open with HP for thepast 4 days, with radio silence and some incorrect feedback.
Has anyone done 802.1x authentication with machine auth on ThinPro thinclients? Prior posts suggest there is a kit HP needs to provide, but again radio silence from HP support.
I've got t530, t630 and I can use thinpro 6 but we prefer 7. Support claimed it will be avail in future release of 7.1 sp4 (which is already available)
Any help appreciated.

Replying to post an answer to my own question.
It turns out I was looking in the wrong direction. MachineAuth was not what I should have looked for, as EAP-TLS would have worked just fine, had I actually setup the NDES/SCEP server with the correct certificate. After promoting the cert, it worked fine. We used this below blog as a reference point:

I had a great session with a HP support technician on this.
