I am searching for a client for the 802.1x protocol,

Something like

but not limited to wireless networks.
Hi Valerio,
I think you'll find the above program does work on wired networks -
check the README file and search for the text 'wired' (linked off the
main page above):
http://hostap.epitest.fi/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/hostap/wpa_supplicant/README?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain
They give a few examples on how 802.1x can be used with wpa_supplicant
over a wired connection (note that I haven't done this myself).
Cheers,
Dave.
