Another possibility is to use encrypting modems, or a serial encryptor that fits between the modem and the Host. Cylink offers such a beast, but they are EXPENSIVE!. They use a configured key as a basis for one-time session key exchange. The encryption handshake (with implied authentication) is effectivly invisible to the host and Dialup application.

I also intend to do some "out-of-band" mgmt with a dialin modem on the serial console of the two sun boxes (yes, yes, wardialers I know). However, this is what the customer wants, and I have no say-so, so I need to simply get it set up.Can you at least get them to use a dial-back modem? Or even strong authentication at the dial-in terminal server? -- Joe Yao jsdy () cospo osis gov - Joseph S. D.
