SSH can do pam authentication.
Not sure the driver will work in FreeBSD..
There is bioapi in ports though.
Oops. looks like ports wins again.. security/bsp_upektfmess
The driver should work fine locally. But using it remote (via ssh etc)
is probably a no-go because verification of the fingerprint records are
done by UPEKs driver at the hardware level.
The only way as I see it (to even make it possible with UPEKs driver)
is to have a reader at both the remote machine and the client machine
and then capture a BioAPI record at the client machine and have the
server verify it. But that involves transferring the record in a secure
way to the server.
