Public bug reported:
No reproductible installation documentation is provided for otpw.
I installed the libpam-otpw package, and the otpw-bin package.
The otpw pam module is not added automatically to the /etc/pam.d/sshd.
That's fine.
However, the documentation is also old, latest mention in it is about a version
around 3.6, so it supposably works with that version.
Hardy however carries 4.7. This is still fine.
However, when trying to add otpw to the pam configuration according to the
README file, it does not work accordingly.
The password prompt for ssh does NOT display the number of the password which
is to be entered.
The steps I did:
1. Added the mentioned two lines to /etc/pam.d/sshd
2. Tried both yes and not for PrivilegeSeparation.
3. Added PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt yes
4. Restarted ssh server.
The result was that pam_otpw refused the password according to the
entries in auth.log, however the password prompt was not visible.
I am actually also a bit concerned about turning off privilege
separation in the SSHD server.
Best regards,
Robert
