GS108T port authentication with 802.1x problem
Recently I bought a couple of GS108T switches that I'm supposed to use together with 802.1x authentication. I set up a PKI structure that worked good and used NPS (network policy server) on Win 2k8...

What settings did you use on all three for making this work?
For now, I would settle for EAP-MD5.

You have to unlock EAP-MD5 in 2008 Server and then choose it in Network Policy Server as authentication option.

I think they have removed it in Server 2008 R2 though.
No - the GS108T is not a managed switch, it's what's called a SmartSwitch, in that it has limited management capabilties, rather than being fully managed. It is also significantly cheaper.
I've only used 802.1x authentication in a wireless environment so I can't assist with the second question.
