Dynamic password project


Hi folks,

Is there "dynamic password" project on Open Source?

Not found on Freshmeat. Sourceforge seemed not working for the time being.

TIA

B.R.

what is a dynamic password? something like a strong authentication token system you mean? there are tokenless systems available under the GPL but you really need to explain more about what you want.

Hi Chris,

I was talking about the random password generated by token. But instead I need tokenless. That is after the user sends his information to the webserver/any_server, the latter will generate a one_time password to the user. With this one_time password the user can login. This one_time password is only valid once and has time limit. After x-minuites/seconds it will expire. The user can't use it to login. Next time on request the server will generate another password.

B.R.
