Keyboard-interactive for SFTP when using 2FA

[TheRobLP]

Feature Request

Feature Information:

Hello. I think that it would be great so that when 2FA is enabled on a users account and that user tries to login to SFTP it first asks for the password only, and then for the 2FA passphrase via keyboard-interactive authentication. It is very annoying that I can't save my passwords, because you currently have to append the 2FA code at the end of it, which means you have to manually change the saved password every time. Is this something you could add? Thanks in advance for your time.

I confirm:

That's not possible I'm afraid, what we're going to do instead is allow public key authentication instead for SFTP.

I see. That would work too, of course. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I am very glad to hear that a solution is being worked on.

Closed because another work item already exists for SFTP key auth.
