greetings! I'm in process of building a FreeS/WAN VPN + filtering firewall between my LAN and my 802.11b LAN. I'd like to authenticate with SecurID tokens as we already have an ACE Server (ver 5.0 methinks). While I realize that IPSEC VPN's usually uses public-private keys, I'm concerned that a laptop might get into the wrong hands and then security doesn't matter too much. Therefore, the two-factor authentication that RSA SecurID provides gives us that extra layer of assurance that we'd like to have.
Does anyone know if this has been done anywhere or even similar circumstances? Or perhaps what systems I should put together (http proxy + FreeS/WAN?) to make this happen. I don't know how the authentication would work since I'm only familiar with RSA's commercial clients under Windows. Would I need a client on every wireless node or is it browser based? I see that RSA offers the ClearTrust product with an Apache reverse proxy. Is that part of what I might need? I know that ACEServer _does_ support some subset of the RADIUS protocol if that gives anyone any ideas. I can use a commercial or Free Software product on either GNU/Linux or Solaris. Presently, I'm using DUCLING from the Linux Router Project , but I have no problems moving to a hard drive solution. thank you, Jim - James L.
