I am running the latest version of BSDI. I would like to know if it is
possible to do remote password authentication with a Digiboard setup.
For various reasons, we need to leave our billing and e-mail on our
main server. We would like to move the Digi system to a new server and
do password authentication in a fashion similar to our Livingstons
which use radius. However, I have been told that this is not possible
because there is no client that runs on BSDI to do this function.

Has anyone had this problem?
