Hi all,

If you are not interested in token-based authentication, stop reading.

As you may know, Radiator works with our RadKey token based authentication
system, so that people can only log in to your network if they have their token
physically plugged into their computer. This provides much more secure access
than with normal passwords.

We are pleased to announce that RadKey now interoperates with Apache as
well as Radiator, providing strong access control to web pages authenticated
via Radius.

When working with Apache, RadKey implements a version of the HTTP Digest
authentication scheme. This is much more secure than standard Basic
authentication. Authentication can be used to protect access to individual
pages, directories or proxy access through Apache. You can therefore have a
single user list for dial-up _and_ web or proxy access.

We have patches available for Apache 1.3.9 that authenticate RadKey against
Radiator or directly from a flat file. The RadKey Challenger software now also
supports IE5 plug-in HTTP authentication.

That means that you can use RadKey+Radiator to:

1. Dial up access via Radius
2. Access to pages or areas on an Apache web server
3. Access to an Apache proxy server.

For existing Radiator customers, there is a free demo available that allows you
to test both the dialup access and the Apache access (using a test page on our
web server). The demo allows you to test the software without actually having a
physical token (the demo software pretends it has a physical token for "mikem"
plugged in, so you can only use it to log in as "mikem" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]")

Feedback and questions to me please.
Cheers.
