OVH OTP (2FA) - Attention
OVH OTP (2FA) - Attention
You may think about activating OTP (Google Two-Factor) for your OVH Account.
As long as you do not swtich your mobile device or lost your tokens, everything would be nice.
But, be aware!
Even if you have the Recovery Tokens, You will be locked out.
- There is no Online Form to recover your Tokens / disable OTP.
- There is no Help Site available on OVH (25.09.2017)
- OVH is not responding to my Mails since some days
--> I've sent 4 Mails, to 2 different Mail Adresses
So i just can advise, never use OVH with active OTP Acess for production Workloads!
To dangerous!
appendix:
The Reviews just covers the OTP Restore Process!
In my opinion the Cloud-Service itself works fine.
As long as you have your token, logon process also works fine.
This post just reflexes my experience

Two factor is literally saying "never let anyone into my account without this."
Never use @Berndinox for production workload.
I tried to contact you on twitter, you didn't answer me either
=>
Hy,
.. i do just check twitter once a week.
for such critical "issues" my prefered communication way is the good, old e-mail.
No response from [email protected] aswell as, [email protected]
-> Could you unlock my Account? I can provide a OTP Backup Token.
May have a look at nextcloud code, on how to implement an otp backup form...

EDIT: Updated the main topic with an "appendix" to be clear what components are meant.

What happened here?
Thread closed so OP can't wipe it out again. Seriously bad form @Berndinox. If you don't want to post something here, don't post it. Don't contribute to content on this site and then revoke it.
