RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Setup:

> ssh user1@host1
First Factor:
Second Factor (optional):

Issue:

Shouldn't "Second Factor" be required?

I would say no because there are two independent steps here authentication and authorization.

Getting and validating the user's credentials is authentication. Checking whether the user is allowed to log in is authorization. If e.g. a HBAC rule denies access to a specific user on a host the user is prompted for the password as well although he can never log in due to the HBAC rule.

If you'd like to change the prompting in general this is tracked by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1402056.

Hence I'd like to close this ticket either as NOTABUG or as duplicate to #1402056. What would you prefer?

Thank you for the clarification.  Yes, bug 1402056 could have helped here so not to confuse the users.

ok, thank you for the feedback, then I close this a duplicate.
