I’m currently in the process of losing my mind whilst setting up a 2fa + sshkey login for my debian 11 server.
I want my client (elia) to login with a private-key and a google-auth otp. After entering the private-key’s passphrase and entering the google-auth otp, I get this error from putty:
No supported authentication methods available (server sent: keybaord-interactive)
Here is the full dialoge:
Using username "elia".
Authenticating with public key "Elia-Badespeak00002"
Passphrase for key "Elia-Badespeak00002":
Further authentication required
