| + | If you are using password authentication, you can enter your password directly on [[ui_login_session#session_group|Login dialog]]. Otherwise WinSCP will prompt you once a server asks for it. You will be prompted again, if you enter invalid password. Also note that most of the servers will "prompt" for password when you use invalid username, not to allow attacker to learn if particular account exists. | ||

| + | ===== Keyboard Interactive ===== | ||
| + | For keyboard-interactive, TIS or Cryptocard authentication methods the server can issue its own prompt. Most of the servers use keyboard-interactive authentication just as different method for getting account password. For the reason WinSCP by default responds to the first keyboard-interactive prompt with the password entered on Login dialog (if any). To disable this behaviour unset keyboard-interactive authentication option //[[ui_login_authentication#attempt_keyboard-interactive_authentication|Respond with password to the first prompt]]//. | ||
| + | |||
| + | As the server can generally prompt for anything, the answer can be quite long and may not be even secret. For the reason you can make it visible by unchecking //Hide typing//, so you can easier type it. | ||

| + | ===== Authentication Banner ===== | ||
| + | During [[ssh#authentication_in_ssh|authentication]] the server can issue authentication banner. It can contain various information, generally regarding security and server usage. After reviewing the text, press //Continue// button to continue. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you want to avoid seeing the banner each time you login, check //Never show this banner again//. It will make WinSCP ignore the same banner for the particular account and server the next time. However if the banner content changes you will see it again. Suppression of banners can be [[administration|restricted by system administrator]]. | ||
