Open Source C Authentication Software

*NOTE* Migrated to http://github.com/cracklib/cracklib Next generation version of libCrack password checking library. As of Oct 2008 (reflected in 2.8.15 code release), licensed under LGPL.

The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a public-key based two-factor authentication system. It is a flexible, extensible, and secure alternative to tokens, certs and passwords. Application & API support exists for Java, ASP, PHP, Ruby, OpenVPN, TACACS+, etc. Read our eGuide on how to setup your network with two-factor authentication: http://www.wikidsystems.com/learn-more/two-factor-authentication-white-papers

OpenPAM is an open source PAM library that focuses on simplicity, correctness, and portability.

PAM module which permits authentication for arbitrary services via ssh-agent. Written with sudo in mind, but like any auth PAM module, can be used for for many purposes.

GQ is an LDAP client based on GTK+/GTK2

Project has been moved to github: https://github.com/pam-pgsql/pam-pgsql

Purpose of this project is to build portable, easy-to-use and standard compliant library suitable for developing free and commercial software that need support for a RADIUS protocol (RFCs 2138 and 2139).

Configure Unix users and groups in a MySQL database. It is system-wide like NIS or LDAP! It features open-ended database design and persistent connections. Works with NSS-compatible systems (Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD).

Implementation of checkpassword-compatible PAM authentication program. Details on "checkpassword" interface are available at http://cr.yp.to/checkpwd.html

Many enviroments are switching from the Network Information Service (NIS) system over to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) for sharing their network information (login names, passwords, home directories, group information) to all of the machines on the network. NIS was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP). This package implements several utilites that provide functional equivalents to utilities from the yp-tools and util-linux-ng package.

pam_mount is a Pluggable Authentication Module that can mount volumes for a user session (login). Supports mounting local filesystems of any kind the normal mount utility supports, with extra code to better support CIFS, FUSE, various crypto, and more.

This module provides single sign-on behavior. The user types a passphrase when logging in and is allowed in if it decrypts the user's SSH private key. An ssh-agent is started and keys are added. For the entire session, the user types no more passwords.

pGina is an open source replacement authentication system for the Windows OS that uses easy to write plugins to accommodate for authentication via limitless back ends. We have a new home: http://www.pgina.org or http://github.com/pgina/

PLEASE GO TO https://github.com/deksai/pam_abl A PAM module that provides auto blacklisting of hosts and users responsible for repeated failed authentication attempts. Generally configured so that blacklisted users still see normal login prompts but are guaranteed to fail to authenticate.

NIBS - Billing System for small and medium Internet Service Providers based on Cistron Radius with MySQL support.

Likewise Open is an open source, community project sponsored by Likewise Software that integrates Linux, Unix and Mac platforms with Microsoft Active Directory. To download Likewise Open for free, go to http://www.Likewise.com/

Event Manager for OpenLDAP is an internal LDAP event handler that can execute operations to automate tasks. It can be used as base for remote automation, Identity Management, and so on.

Yap2lc (Yet Another Passwd 2 LDIF Converter) is an LDAP migration tool, which extracts information from passwd, shadow/passwd, and master.passwd formatted files, filters out unwanted/misshapen accounts and writes an LDIF file for easy importing.

raddump interprets captured RADIUS packets to print a timestamp, packet length, RADIUS packet type, source and destination hosts and ports, and included attribute names and values for each packet.

ARAAS is an Authentication and Resource Access Authorization System based on internet technologies. It uses some ideas from OMG's Resource Access Decision Service (RAD) to provide a central service for user authentication and authorization.

ns-slapd plugin to perform pass-through authentication of LDAP users to NT domain controllers (based on the ntUserDomainID attribute).

JRadius - A Radius Server Java Adapter and Java Client

This project will consist of a group of command line utilities to assist an LDAP administrator in maintaining LDAP databases.

Login.app is an X server management and authentication application. User authentication is performed with either a username/password or via SmartCard based authentication. At startup the app launches the X server and presents an authentication panel which also recongnizes several commands (reboot, halt, exit and console). SmartCard support relies on the OpenSSH authorized_keys file method for authentication and also requires OpenSC, pcsc-lite and OpenSSL.

The Password Auditing Project will be a compilation of other, previously released password auditing programs, in such a fashion as to reap the best benefits of each portion. Pulling innovations from John the Ripper, Lepton, Rainbow Tables, and more.
