Unfortunately, no, there is no plug in so that freeradius can directly
authenticate against an ACE server.
I have been in contact with RSA on this issue. RSA's response was
basically, 'We've never heard of freeradius, so piss off.' I even offered
to write the freeradius plug in. RSA's reply was that if I wrote a plug
in, that I'd be in violation of the RSA licensing agreement if I were to
give the code back to the freeradius project for distribution.
So the long and the short of it is this: IF YOU WANT FREERADIUS TO
SUPPORT SECURID -->EVER<--, CONTACT YOUR RSA REP (if you need an address
to contact let me know) AND DEMAND THEY SUPPORT IT! (Then _maybe_ they'll
let me write a plugin that doesn't violate the licensing agreement.
Maybe.)

What you _can_ do in the interim is proxy against the piss poor radius
server built into ACE, but that's a sub-sub-sub optimal solution.

Subject: Radius authentication using RSA/SecurID ACE-Server
Hello Folks!
I�m planning to use a Radius-Server for the Authentication/Accounting of
my VPN-Users.
Is there a plugin for an ACE-Server, so the Radius-Server asks the ACE to
authenticate the user?
