Liudvikas:
Our commercial challenge/response software has had a published API
that has been stable for several years now. It is NOT directly
incorporated into kerberos, but with source for kerberos and with
our source code publicly available, it should not be difficult to
merge the two. Source code invoking our commercial software through
our published API can be examined on the net. Just ftp to:
ftp.netcom.com
then cd to /pub/bbosen/Enigma
and have a look around. Pay special attention to "read.me" files,
which will help you find the appropriate subdirectories. In addition
to the API source code, you'll find animated tutorial software for
PC/VGA, and demos of some of our products and online publications.
I hope you find them useful.
Regards,
