Thanks to all who responded. As requested by some, here is a summary of
responses.
SecurID / Kerberos
------------------
Work is being done by Sandia and Security Dynamics. At present, re-synching
with beta2 is in progress.
Contact:
Bill Rahe whrahe@somnet.sandia.gov
Glenn Machin gmachin@somnet.sandia.gov
The Open Computing Security Group has also started coding SecurID support,
contact:
Bob Gassen bobg@ocsg.com
Kerberos Public Key
-------------------
Again, the OCSG is working on RSA Public Key support, this is at design
stage. Same contact as above.
Charlie Kaufman has also posted some info to the net a few days ago, that
info is not included in this summary.
The area I'm looking into specifically is management of the principal's keys
(in particular, for 'human-user' principals) using smart cards (with in-built
DES or RSA facilities) to work in the OSF/DCE environment.
Anyone else out there doing any work in this area?
Mark
