Secure Shell with RSA/SecurID Authentication

2007-12-25 2:23:00

I am deploying new SunFire V240 systems with Solaris9. One of our
companies security directives is to have Secure Shell Running on these
systems. Another requirement is to use SecurID token based authentication.

I have loaded Solaris 9. Core Installation and added the SSH packages from
the Software CD. I have successfully connected to the systems with secure
shell. Now I am trying to add support for SecurID.

After successfully loading the agent on the system, I can from the console
change user {su - <username>} and get prompted for the PASSCODE. I am also
successful when I connect from a one system to another with ssh
<hostname>. After the ssh key exchange I get the PASSCODE prompt from
securid.

My problem is when trying to sftp from one system to another.

Does anyone know of a way to reconfigure the Sun provided sshd to support
securid authentication?

Thanks,
Phillip
