so, the best place to start would be to emerge sudo (and it's dependencies),
and then try and configure it from there... (?) I'm guessing that, with the
use flags set, it would also grab skey...

There's a page at the gentoo wiki with some information about how to set
it all up:

"S/keys are one time use passwords. You can use them if you need to
provide passwords where someone may be monitoring your keystrokes.
S/keys are generated randomly, usually around 100 are generated at one
time, with a passphrase as a key. (This passphrase is independent of
your main system password.)"
