Bug#1024129: ITP: tacacs+ -- TACACS+ authentication daemon
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Pawel Krawczyk <p+debian@krvtz.net>
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org
* Package name : tacacs+
Version : 4.0.4.29
Upstream Author : Lol Grant <tac_plus@shrubbery.net>
* URL : http://www.shrubbery.net/tac_plus/
* License : GPL
Programming Lang: C
Description : TACACS+ authentication daemon
The package was removed from Debian due to inactivity of the
upstream project *and* inactivity of the Debian maintainer:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/tacacs+
I have since repackaged it, updating to the latest packaging
standards, and uploaded to mentors:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/tacacs+/
The version uploaded is 4.0.4.27a, the same as previously
found in Debian but I'm ready to package the latest available
4.0.4.29 as I have imported it into my Git for future maintenance:
https://github.com/kravietz/tac_plus/
The value of the package is that it's the only TACACS+ server
daemon available so far in Debian. The code base is stable,
new feature requests are unlikely so I don't expect its maintenace
to be much effort. I'm also maintaining a complementary project
pam_tacplus, for which I'm also filing an ITP:
