How is it possible to run software on a system you haven't logged into yet? Isn't that a catch-22? But I see most of this thread has been discussing ssh. Are you trying to authenticate ssh? Or the actual laptop login? On my gmail account, I enabled 2-factor auth, which sends a one-use PIN via SMS on every login attempt. I like this. So I encourage using a smartphone based solution. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
