A-Shell 7.0 Release Notes

1760.0.1

EIR

(ATE) ASHNET2.DLL 2.6.213 introduces preliminary support for two-factor authentication. Requires ASHNET2.DLL 2.6.213+ and ATECFX.SBX 4.4(185)+ on the ATE client side, and a package on the server that interfaces with an external authenticator app on the client. As of this release it has only been tested with CentOS/RHEL 7 and the google-authenticator app.

To enable on ATE client side, check the new MFA option, plus the Login Dialog option, in Login panel of the ATE configuration dialog. This will pop up a dialog prior to attempting the connection where you can enter the verification code (mostly likely from a smart-phone app), which will then be passed to the authentication app on the server side.
