OATH Token Troubleshooting
Common things to check if your OATH tokens are not working
- When provisioning a token, set the interval to 30. You cannot make the token act differently by choosing a different number than 30, that's not what it does. You will just make AuthLite mistakenly believe the token is running at a 60 second interval and all your OTPs will be wrong.
- Check the TIME is correct on all DCs compared to your phone or tablet. It needs to be actually accurate, not just in sync with other DCs.
- If you are using Google Authenticator on Android, go into Settings -> Time Correction for Codes -> Sync now.
- Check that the time ZONE is set properly on the DCs (it is not enough that the clock looks right, it must know its proper offset to GMT).
- Make sure "OATH digits" are set to "6" in the AuthLite Configuration app under the section "Token Settings". The default is "0" which means do not use OATH tokens. You cannot make your soft tokens use a different number of digits by changing this value, that's not what it does. You will just make AuthLite mistakenly believe the tokens use 8 digits when they do not.
