Create User PIN Codes

You can create user PIN codes to use for authentication in addition to passwords. IDOL Server can lock users out if they fail to authenticate using the PIN code.

Add a PIN Code for a User

When you enable PIN codes in the configuration file, you can assign them to users by sending a UserPin action.

Authenticate Users with PIN Codes

You authenticate users with PIN codes by using the UserPin action. This action can check certain characters in the PIN code, rather than the whole PIN code.

For example, to authenticate by using the third, fifth, and sixth characters from a PIN code, you must set Positions to 3,5,6. The Values parameter then contains the values that the user provides, for example y,9,a. IDOL Server checks that the specified values occur at the specified positions in the PIN code.
