Re: What are you guys doing for tacacs+ in 2026?

Hi Drew, I'll answer in private to not reincinerate the OS wars.
We're running tac_plus, and have been since... forever.
We have not painted ourselves into a corner by using Linux, though.
FreeBSD has a still-maintained package which works well; it needs a restart
every two months or so, but is happy otherwise.

I know this won't help you much, except maybe to think a bit outside the Linux box.

Cheers,
    Elmar.
