Wiki: Universal 2nd Factor: Multiple Keys

Hello,

i changed the wiki here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Univer … er_Method).

I added the section "Multiple_keys_(Other_Method)" in "Troubleshooting".

Is this ok?

EDIT:

The reason is that i had trouble with 2 keys in one key file.

Greetings

Re: Wiki: Universal 2nd Factor: Multiple Keys

It's generally ok for everyone with benigne intent to edit the wiki.
If you didn't mark the edit as "minor", somebody will probably look at that anyway.
Generally, the proper location for such discussion would however be the discussion page of the wiki you edit.

Notice that you're more or less providing an example for https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Univer … ding_a_key and though I've no personal experience w/ the specific system, I doubt that, in general, some users $HOME is a good location for anything to be referenced in /etc/pam as you'll indirectly provide control over the PAM behavior to some unprivileged user.

Sorry!

I was blind. Now i found the Discussion page.

And yes, a unprivileged user could access the key file. But i was not sure about that to describe it like in the upper section. I personally have it in /etc owned by root and 0644 access.
