Hi Mihai

Thanks for the update. I tried it, it works nicely, many thanks! However, there is a small thing: the user has to be aware that the "Password:" in the first window is ignored and has nothing to do with the two factor authentication, only in the pop-up window with the "Verification code:" should he/she enter the two-factor passcode. It might be somewhat confusing for the first time. As a small suggestion, I would either use the input from the "Password:" field even for the two-factor passcode, or in the pop-up window I would directly copy the prompt from the SSH session, in this case "Enter PASSCODE:" instead of "Verification code:".

many thanks

Sorry for getting back at you so late.

I've added the new prompt to X2Go Client. Newer version will support it.

I don't think accepting all prompts is a good idea, because not every prompt
might be a challenge auth prompt.

However, due to my rewrite of the code in question some good time ago, it's now
easier than ever to add new prompts values:

http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=blob;f=src/sshmasterconnection.cpp;h=4f1987b5076ec71bafe41ed771bade30258111e6;hb=HEAD#l58

(I deliberately didn't add a link to SecurID because it's a proprietary
solution. Just to be safe.)
