http://www.howtoforge.com/secure_ssh_with_wikid_two_factor_authentication

http://www.wikidsystems.com/documentation/howtos/pamradius/

short answer:  use pam_radius (or pam_something) to connect to your
two-factor authentication server. Edit /etc/pam.d/sshd to use pam_radius
and edit /etc/raddb/server to point to your radius server.
