  Description     : Apache web server module for two-factor authentication using one-time passwords (HOTP/OATH).

mod_authn_otp is an Apache web server module for two-factor authentication using one-time passwords (OTP) generated via the HOTP/OATH algorithm defined in RFC 4226. This creates a simple way to protect a web site with one-time passwords, using any RFC 4226-compliant hardware or software token device. mod_authn_otp also supports the Mobile-OTP algorithm.

mod_authn_otp supports both event and time based one-time passwords. It also supports "lingering" which allows the repeated re-use of a previously used one-time password up to a configurable maximum linger time. This allows one-time passwords to be used directly in HTTP authentication without forcing the user to enter a new one-time password for every page load.
mod_authn_otp supports both basic and digest authentication, and will auto-synchronize with the user's token within a configurable maximum offset (auto-synchronization is not supported with digest authentication).
mod_authn_otp is especially useful for setting up protected web sites that require more security than simple username/password authentication yet also don't require users to install special VPN software, and is compatible with software tokens that run on cell phones.

Also included is otptool, a one-time password command line utility.

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging libapache2-mod-authn-otp. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of libapache2-mod-authn-otp from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging libapache2-mod-authn-otp, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 735059 ITP: libapache2-mod-authn-otp -- Apache web server module for two-factor authentication using one-time passwords (HOTP/OATH).

 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <735059@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
