Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Luke Faraone <luke@faraone.cc>


* Package name    : otpasswd
  Version         : 0.4
  Upstream Author :  Tomasz bla Fortuna <bla@thera.be> 
* URL             : http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/otpasswd/

  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : one-time passwords implementation for PAM

otpasswd consists of a pam module and an user utility. With the
utility user manages his "state" file: creates his KEY, manages flags
and prints passcards with one-time passwords.

PAM module enables (for example) OpenSSH to do an authentication using
one-time password with the information from user state file.

The program is written in C (C99) and implements OTP as described in
"Perfect Paper Passwords" description of which can be found here
https://www.grc.com/ppp.htm
This program also kind of extends this idea with "salt".

Unlike OPIE, otpasswd uses modern hashing algotrithms and supports offline
/ out-of-band use.
