OTP Reset

[chappyboy]

I lost the phone having my TOTP Authenticator. How can I get the TOTP to reset?

Hi! You can simply do the following:

1. SSH into the server
2. Navigate to WGDashboard's directory: WGDashboard/src
3. Stop WGDashboard
4. Use a text editor like nano to open wg-dashboard.ini, you might need to sudo
5. Remove these following lines under the section of [Account]. Be careful don't remove other stuff
   • enable_totp = false
   • totp_verified = false
   • totp_key = ...
6. Save the file and restart WGDashboard.
7. Sign in with your username and password, head to Settings, then enable 2FA :)

i would recommend instead using WinSCP browse to the location and use a Notepad++ to edit and save rather than via putty and SSH using nano editor which is confusing at times if not familuar with it.

The protocols are still the same, its just the way the user interacts with it. Terminal users will use ssh with nano/vim and people who prefer graphical user interfaces can use WinSCP or Filezilla. No option is better, but just preferences.

That's true... but I would assume people who come across this project know how to use bash and nano?

When I reset the 2FA, the OTP code is always the same. It is not good
