RE: secure ID token based authentication

["Kalat, Andrew (ISS Atlanta)" <akalat () iss net>]

Sure, you can do this a couple of ways.
For Solaris you can install the SD client which includes a new shell. In
essence, the person invokes the SDshell on login, and it will prompt for
the passcode. After proper auth, it'll pass them to their usual shell as
configured in their user account in the ACE server.

I *believe* they have a client for linux, but I'm not sure.

For Cisco, I recommend going the Tacacs route. Set up something like
Cisco's Tacacs server, which has support for SecurID on the back end.
Then, you not only can control log in to the cisco boxen using securID,
but you can control what commands that particular user can invoke. You
can also configure the ace server to listen for tacacs and radius
directly, but I'm not a big fan of this. You loose a lot of control and
features if you go direct to ACE with tacacs/radius. 

Let me know if you'd like more details.
