Hello,
I have an RSA SecurID token and I'd like to set up authentication with ssh. The problem is that RSA does not provide ACE/Server for Linux. Moreover all howtos I've google'd out say that SecurID requires ACE Server. Is there a sollution for using these tokens without ACE? Or maybe someone has written a linux server yet? Greetings, Warden |

The ACE/Server contains the database of tokens, users and pin codes that authenticate you as a user. ACE/Agents do little but provide the login prompts on the client computers and communicate with the ACE/Server to provide authentication. A PAM agent for Linux is available from RSA for Linux, see http://www.rsasecurity.com/node.asp?id=1177 However, the server component will only run on Windows, Solaris, HP-UX and AIX. HTH, James |
