Hi Drew, I'll answer in private to not reincinerate the OS wars.
We're running tac_plus, and have been since... forever.
We have not painted ourselves into a corner by using Linux, though.
FreeBSD has a still-maintained package which works well; it needs a restart
every two months or so, but is happy otherwise.
I was going to suggest the same. We've been on FBSD for *decades* and have
zero
problems. As an added bonus, it'll run most linux apps either directly, or a
complete (linux) system in a VM or jail.

I know this won't help you much, except maybe to think a bit outside the
Linux box.
Cheers,
Elmar.

Howdy.
I imagine that this is an issue that has come up before but I am having an
issue finding how anyone else handled it. (Unless everyone is still running
tac_plus on RHEL7)
I'm trying to migrate some tac plus instances to a new Linux distro that
apparently doesn't support tcp_wrappers and I'm having trouble both
compiling it and making an RPM for it.
I've tried both the original https://www.shrubbery.net/tac_plus/ and the
now sadly abandoned Facebook version https://github.com/facebook/tac_plus
If there is another tacacs+ solution everyone has moved to that I am
unaware of please enlighten me.
Thank you,
-Drew
