Installing Perl Authen::OATH on CentOS 6.4

I'm trying to install Authen::OATH to use Google Two Factor Auth.

Using the Perl Module to install "Authen::OATH" fails in the first test

Executing make test ..

                                                                                                   
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/ar
ch')" t/*.t
Bailout called.  Further testing stopped: 

#   Failed test 'use Authen::OATH;'

# Testing Authen::OATH , Perl 5.010001, /usr/bin/perl

make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 1

Using "perl -MCPAN -e shell" followed by "install Authen::OATH" takes me thru dozens of prompts for dependencies, but it finally fails at:

I don't want to force any install, I would like to do this gracefully. Any tips?

Thank you

Hello,

How'd you like to install the module?

The error you are getting is because you don't have perl-Moose installed. If you have the EPEL repos activated, go ahead and:

yum install perl-Moose

And then try again.

If you want to build the RPM it might require a bit more work but is, imo, better. I've built the rpm package, maybe you can try to use it. Here are the rpm and the source archive I used to build the rpm package:

Source: http://demo.senolage.net/rpmbuild/SOURCES/perl-Authen-OATH-1.0.0.tar.bz2

RPM: http://demo.senolage.net/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/perl-Authen-OATH-1.0.0-1.e...

Please report if this worked for you.

Also, make sure you have time sync enabled on your server (ntp), otherwise the authentication won't work.

Regards, Dinis

I installed perl:Moose from EPEL, but it still failed.

Hello, I believe you might be missing some packages and it seems like some dependencies are missing.

I think the following packages should be installed before build:

yum install 'perl(Moose)'
yum install 'perl(Digest::HMAC)'
yum install 'perl(Module::Build)'

I'm not sure whether the install through CPAN is working or not, but I'd advise you to either:

To install this module, run the following commands:

perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test
./Build install

I did yum install 'perl(Moose)': sucessfully installed yum install 'perl(Digest::HMAC)': already installed and latest. yum install 'perl(Module::Build)': sucessfully installed

then "rpm -ivh perl-Authen-OATH-1.0.0-1.el6.noarch.rpm", which showed 100%.

But webmin still says "Authen::OATH needed for two-factor authentication is not installed".

You should probably restart webmin after that to see if it gets.

Anyway, you can run:

perl -e 'use Authen::OATH;'

and check that it found the module (no output is good). Otherwise, maybe paste the output here.

perl -e 'use Package::Stash;' brings no output.

whats the next step to try!? i don't want to build from source...

would someone please tell how to password protect (like basic auth) the webmin login page?!

i can't get 2FA running and absolutely can't have it exposed anymore. i need to setup a very strong password for the "pre-auth", which can be memorized by my browser, then just use my strong (but rememberable) webmin login. i already changed the username from the default.

thanks

Does Authy also require Authen::OATH?

Do I need to register as a developer to get an Authy API key?

Thanks

Since I cannot get 2FA to work, could someone at least tell me how to password protect the login page?

Thanks

I used to have the same problem. To get 2FA to work,

  1. you need gcc. yum install gcc
  2. get CPAN. yum install CPAN
  3. configure CPAN ( just run CPAN )
  4. after CPAN is configured, install Authen::OATH module in CPAN shell, which takes a long time to complete.
  5. When Authen::OATH is successfully installed, configure 2FA in WebMin.
