For servers, how about using RADIUS.
Please see http://nic.merit.edu/radius/.index.html
Major terminal servers *may* suppot RADIUS, I think.
#I set it up on BSD/OS with Portmaster and Ascend MAX4000.
For clients, I found radiusclient-0.26 at sunsite.
Please see http://www.popnet.de/~lf/radius/
I will use it some day...so, please report it;-)
