First of all, there (I mean original OPIE) must be 2 prompts in worst case, not 3 prompts: 1) One prompt without echo. 2) One prompt with echo. Thats all. It looks like pam_unix option should be changed from "try_first_pass" to "use_first_pass" to avoid 3rd prompt. Back to your subj.: It breaks, at least, M$ Windows OPIE/Skey generators which do auto-paste when keyword (Password) is found. -- Andrey A.
