(RADIATOR) Vasco qualification

[Mike McCauley]

Hi All,

We have just finished testing with the Vasco's Vacman Radius Middleware 
software (www.vasco.com)

Vasco are a vendor of token based authentication systems, which involve a 
small handheld device that is used to generate one-time passwords or 
challenge-response passwords.

Vacman is a very interesting and easy way to add token-based authentication 
to an existing Radius infrastructure.

The Vacman Radius Middleware is interposed between your existing NASs and 
your existing Radius server(s). I intercepts access-requests and proxies them 
to your radius server, learning the correct static password on the way. Then 
it does it own authentication, possibly with a challenge-response sent back 
to the the NAS.

That means that you can add token-authentication one-time or 
challenge/response for some or all your users without having to replace your 
Radius server.

Anyway, we have tested it with Radiator and it works fine.

Cheers.
