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).

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

An open source project originally designed to provide the University of Michigan with a secure single sign-on web authentication system. Cosign is part of the National Science Foundation Middleware Initiative (NMI) EDIT software release.

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/

CPU is meant to be a swiss army knife for administrators who are currently using or wanting to use an LDAP backend for user authentication. This project allows for easy user administration of LDAP users and allows for user and group mods, deletes and add

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

LDAP Account Sync project's goal is to synchronize windows user account information and passwords in a OpenLDAP server. This is not authorization, but rather synchronization of the account information. This service can be used for single login site

Qryptix consists of a PAM object and utilities for session- and key-management for encrypted home directories using the International Kernel (CryptoAPI) patches for Linux. It simplifies login/logout, mounting/unmounting, and key generation and changing.

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.

AccounteX is an IP accounting system based on the IP Stat program. It has many exciting features like fully customizable web traffic accounting and user access control by many different values. information service and web statistics and administration.
