[Bug 776779] Re: no way to require fprint OR password, which means no sudo over SSH/NX
This issue still exists with 15.04. If you are lazy and only want to type the password, it still requires your finger to authenticate. Even if the fingerscan is invalid, but the password was correct. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776779 Title: no way to require fprint OR password, which means no sudo over SSH/NX To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libfprint/+bug/776779/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Problem also occurs with 12.04. I agree that its quite annoying if you want to use sudo from within a (remote) SSH session. The only workaround I'm aware of is to wait for the fprint timeout and then enter your password. user@host:~$ sudo ls Scan ... finger on UPEK Eikon 2 Fingerprint verification error -22 [sudo] password for user: Unfortunately, the timeout is quite long (approx. 1 minute) and I couldn't find a way to configure it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776779 Title: no way to require fprint OR password, which means no sudo over SSH/NX To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libfprint/+bug/776779/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
