I wanted to know if anyone had any experience using CryptoCards for secure
logins. A big thanks to

Lawrence MacIntyre <lpz_at_nautique.epm.ornl.gov>

Who suggesting modifying the logdaemon package to use cryptocards.

I just happened to have this package floating around and managed to
compile it (after getting a DES encryption lib and libwrap from
tcp_wrappers). Unfortunately the login program didn't seem to work
properly. It didn't really matter too much, I really wanted it for one
of our Ultrix machines and it seems to work perfectly on there. All I've
got to do now is work out how to make sure it doesn't prompt for
cryptocard logins on the console.

Thanks also to:

Peter Wood <mapjay_at_thehub.com.au>

Who gave me some contact numbers for Eracom in Australia which are bound
to come in handy down the track.

Thanks again,

Andrew
