Hey,


So I am trying to implement TOTP+password for SSH on a server. In  the past its been as simple as using google authenticatior but seeing as how we have a shiny FreeIPA server...


Created a user, then gave them a TOTP token (synched and tested that it works by logging into the web ui). But I'm stuck at the correct way to implement this on the SSH server.
Found the earlier thread[1] and got some pointers.
sshd config:

ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
AuthenticationMethods keyboard-interactive


If I do not define password/otp for the host via the IPA web interface, login works fine with password. If I set it to password/otp only it fails.


Looking at journalctl -xeu ssh.service there clearly is some issue.

Tried giving my password, and my password+otp (without the '+'). But nothing works.

Anyone got any pointers or see any obvious mistakes ?

You get system error from pam_sss. You need to enable debug logging in
SSSD and collect logs. Please see
https://sssd.io/troubleshooting/basics.html for more details.
