Re: file tokens on login



Hello,

You can use "-i" switch when connecting to the host to specify the identity file (containing the private key).

Also u can specify identity file on per host basis in the configuration file located at "/etc/ssh/ssh_config". Or use a per user configuration file using the "-F" switch.

also as I understand ssh uses 2 factor authentication it uses RSA or DSA keys plus the provided username and password provided proper access control on the ssh key files usually located "~/.ssh/Id_rsa" and "~/.ssh/id_dsa".

Hope this helped.

Is there an option or patch for ssh so that, on login, a file, e.g.
/tmp/ssh-ip.ad.dr.es-user-XXXXXX so that I can use it as an
authentication token for multi-factor login?

And to have a creation hook so that updating the htdigest and
.htaccess's IP filter with the file name value isn't limited
by cron?

I'm running OpenSSH 5.6p1, Gentoo -r1.
