One of our Army clients (USAMITC) is asking if we know of any Unix based SSH
client and or server which will support CAC certificate based authentication
other then Tectia.  Are you aware of any?

Have a look at the OpenSC page.
http://www.opensc-project.org/opensc/wiki/OpenSSH
This combined with the OpenSC opensc-pkcs11.so and the PIV card driver should 
work.

Ubuntu Maverick will have ssh-pkcs11-helper:
 http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man8/ssh-pkcs11-helper.8.html
The OpenSC opensc-pkcs11.so can be used with the ssh_add -s

RedHat may have something too, using the Mozilla NSS.

The Mozilla "Security devices" are pkcs11 shared libs, so the opensc-pkcs11.so
could be used here.

(I have not tried any of these with SSH but do use PIV with Thunderbird, Firefox
via the Security device.)
