Master Password

Tokeny requires a Master Password for authenticating you against the whole application.

Master Password can be set only once, on the very first time you run tokeny setup. After that, all other commands will ask for Master Password once for every 5 minutes.

In case you lost your Master Password, the only way to reset it is removing all data (including token entries), located at $HOME/.tokeny.

3. Caution

Please think twice before using Tokeny, since having token generator in your machine may make you lose the benefits of Two-Factor Authentication.
