Re: Two factor authentication with SSH using Google Authenticator -- PCTECH

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

The problem is that the key is linked with the device. If you loose the
your phone you can't restore that key to a new device thus loosing your
ability to log in. Make sure you have a second way in so you can link it to
a new device. That is what I meant. I am not worried about someone stealing
my phone.

Well, in that case I do a remote wipe of the phone and I'm secure.
