[Freeipa-users] OTP and Laptops

2015-07-27 Thread John Johnson
Hello,

I'm wondering where/how I could get some more information about the
underpinnings of the OTP token mechanisms? Ultimately, I'd like to
understand the reason why OTP in FreeIPA doesn't work at the moment with
laptops, specifically.

Depending on the laptop -- assuming you are trying to kinit from a 
terminal window, check the version of Kerberos. It needs to be at least 1.6.

Kerberos version is 1.12.2 on RHEL7.1.  I guess I'm wondering if the issue
is hardware-related, somehow specific to laptops; or if it's related to the
way laptops are assumed to be used, i.e. portable, etc.

It would be helpful if you described what isn't working.

I'm not saying that something isn't working for me; I'm going off the
information available on
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/System-Level_Authentication_Guide/authconfig-addl-auth.html#otp-laptop-users
and a thread in this mailing list referencing it.  I'm simply trying to
understand the particular issue related to the laptop-specific
implementation and obstacles as it relates to OTP

No, there is no hardware-specific limitations. What the documentation
tries to explain (rather poorly, I agree!) is that a roaming clients
like laptops would have some issues when OTP is the only scheme enabled
for the user.

This is solved in SSSD 1.13 and both solution and the problem are
described in detail in
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/DesignDocs/PAMConversationForOTP
