I am needing to do some work on Linux servers that require 2-factor authentication using a PIV card. The instructions I was given are based on PuTTy-CAC
but I woild like to use MobaXterm
. I wasn't able to find equivalent settings ("CAPI Certificate") in MobaXterm.
Is there any way to use MobaXterm where 2-factor authentication is required and how?

Load your CAPI keys into PuTTY-CAC's Pageant (SSH signature agent). MobaXterm supports using Pageant for authentication (partly because its SSH client is indeed based on PuTTY). This also works with a few other clients, such as WinSCP or Bitvise Tunnelier.
