SYNOPSIS
login_token
[-s service]
[-v name=value]
user
[class]
DESCRIPTION
The
login_token
program implements an X9.9 token card challenge response authentication
mechanism (see
login.conf(5/)).
It must be invoked by one of the names:
login_activ, login_crypto,
or
login_snk.
Available options are:
-s
Specify the service.
Currently only
challenge,
login,
and
response
are supported.
-v
This option and its value are ignored.
login_token
will look up
user
in the appropriate database file, depending on what name it was called as:
/etc/activ.db,
/etc/crypto.db,
or
/etc/snk.db.
It then will issue a challenge, and if the user
is able to correctly respond (by using the appropriate token)
the user will be authenticated.
The
class
argument is unused.
