How to use server as a central place for SecurID and passwords.
Resolution
Here is an example of how to allow a user to login with a password on specific machines.
EXAMPLE:
ACCOUNT 1
User: Jean Smith
Default Login: jsmith
Token: TOKEN
ACCOUNT 2
User: Jean Smith
Default Login: jsmithpw
Token: PASSWORD
Create two accounts for the user with different Default Logins, like what is listed above.
Assign the account with the token as you normally would, to clients.
If you have a client called internal that you want the user to login using a password, edit the client and activate the user "jsmithpw" on the client. When activating the user, it should prompt you for the users Login and Shell for that client. For Login use "jsmith".
