Hello, I will be releasing a Secure PAM login library by early next week that supports the Schlumberger Cyberflex Access Card and RSA cryptography. Unix password files will be removed and you will instead have a /etc/smartpasswd with UID's and their cooresponding RSA public keys. The host will generate a 128 byte random string which it will encrypt with the public key contained in the file and then the card will sign it and pass back the original result for authentication. I have tested it with the Todos and Schlumberger Reflex 62 readers though some particular masks of the Access card seem to timeout. The passwd command will also use PAM to change the public/private keys so administration should be really easy. I'll include more information as I get it.
