Re: Emacs Tramp hangs with timeout when connecting to server with two-factor authentication from a Windows 11 machine via sshx/scpx

Hi Alexei,

I've played further with this. Well, it seems like it is a known
issue. In the Tramp manual, we have

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
     *Note* that =E2=80=98sshx=E2=80=99 does not bypass authentication ques=
tions.  For
     example, if the host key of the remote host is not known, =E2=80=98ssh=
x=E2=80=99
     will still ask "Are you sure you want to continue connecting?".
     TRAMP cannot handle such questions.  Connections will have to be
     setup where logins can proceed without such questions.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See (info "(tramp) Inline methods")

I suppose the question for the verification code falls into this
category. Perhaps you try the "plink" method instead of "sshx"?

Best regards, Michael.
