minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·7 months agoYep. Use SSH keys, not just protocol. On connection, it’ll ask for your SSH password (this is different from the users password). After that with something like authelia in place, you’ll be asked for a 2fa code.
minus-squareMaggiWuerze@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·7 months agoSo, no. SSH can’t do 2FA? I would need to set up Authelia and connect through that? I already use ssh keys instead of passwords to connect to my server
minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·7 months agoYes it can. I literally have it set up right now. When I connect to my vps I am promoted for the password for my SSH key. Only works on a machine that has the ssh key. Then I need to use 2fa.
You can have 2FA on ssh?
