Hi guys, 

We went live with two-step auth for redcap.stanford.edu this past weekend. Some 
people are figuring it out on their own while others are getting confused. Two 
different folks contacted me after seeing the message below: 

WebLogin ( What is this? ) 

An error has occurred. 
Two-step authentication not configured. 
The site to which you were trying to go requires two-step authentication, but 
you do not have two-step authentication configured for your account. You will 
need to configure it before you can continue. 
Go to Accounts to configure multifactor for your account. 
To try again, please return to the preceding web page (or you may need to start 
your request for this web service again). For help or to report a service 
problem, contact HelpSU . 
They got to 'An Error Has Occurred' and just stopped reading. I know this is a 
user error issue, but as a suggestion it might be worth while to reword the 'An 
Error Has Occurred' and replace it with something like - "Almost there - one 
more configuration step is now required:" Technically it isn't an error, but an 
additional security requirement.
