I've used it in the past for both Linux boxes and Cisco routers, generally by setting up the ACE server as a RADIUS server, and using the PAM RADIUS module, and pointing the routers at the RADIUS port on the ACE server. Be aware that you'll have to wait one full minute between login to a router and being able to use the "enable" command. It works great though, at my last company, login to my Linux desktop was via Secure-ID, and back when I had a desktop instead of a laptop for my primary machine at TruSecure, it was set up the same way. It generally takes about five minutes to find the PAM module for RADIUS. I don't know if it'll compile and run with Solaris PAM as well, but I'd be surprised if it didn't.
