I would like a lab to build a modern implementation of RFC 2289[1], A One-Time Password System (OTP), also known as OPIE or S/Key. The Lab would be named "Orthrus"[2].

OPIE[3] is the most common implementation available, and its last release was over 5 years ago.

OPIE is currently included in the base of FreeBSD[4].

The first goal would be to build a 'client' implementation, a portable replacement for OPIE's opiecalc, for use on operating systems like OSX, where opiecalc cannot compile without modification.

Later goals would like to build a more complete library for OTP, for use in a server mode, possibly including a PAM module[5], and possibly figuring out Solaris integration.

This code would align with the Apache Infrastructure's use of OTP for all root accounts where possible.
