Before I write this thing, I wanted to check and see if anyone on the list knows if such a tool already exists in the open-source community. I've done some google and freshmeat searches but didn't find anything that seemed to fit the bill. The closest thing I found was E-Pad which seems to be more related to file encryption than authentication.
I'm interested in coding a one-time pad authentication system; similar to SecurID or other types of token authentication only with software tokens. The administrator would generate the one-time pads for each user and distribute them using whatever secure method gets coded (PGP, SSH, or whatever). The user then has a software token on their machine with the token code that changes either every use, or uses some type of challenge/response system, blah blah blah. This token is used to log into systems, etcetera. I'd be interested in knowing if such an open-source tool exists, and if not who would be interested in working on it with me (email me privately if interested).
