There was some discussion regarding iButtons in mid-Jan on this list. 
I'm interested in getting one or more of these things to play with, with
the goal of:

o Authenticating myself to my home workstations (pam module?).

o Storing PGP & ssh keys.

Since I assume these are tasks of interest to more people than just
myself, I was wondering:

o Does anyone have existing code bases to support these tasks?

o Is there any support (in the political sense) for getting the pam
module and/or other code incorporated into the base system or as a port?

o Does anyone have any recommendations on what hardware to procure for
these tasks?  I was looking at getting a serial port BlueDot (possibly
two or three, I have some laptops I may want to use this with too) and a
DS1996L-F5 64-kbit Memory iButton.  I would also think about getting a
Java-powered iButton, Model 96, Release 1.1 (or 2.2) if I understood
exactly what I'd be getting for the money.  Does anyone have any
information/examples on how these Java iButtons are used?

Thanks,

Daniel
