BoilerKey

Link to section 'SSH' of 'BoilerKey' SSH

SSH to the cluster as usual.
When asked for a password, type the usual BoilerKey sequence (<PIN,push> or <PIN,code>) you would use in any other Purdue two-factor places.

Link to section 'Thinlinc' of 'BoilerKey' Thinlinc

Web interface: Works with either <PIN,push> or <PIN,code> as you would expect for BoilerKey.
The native client:
1. Does NOT work with <PIN,code>.
2. Works with <PIN,push> through Duo on your phone (but will ask twice because of the way Thinlinc works internally).
3. Works with key-based authentication.
