Comment (by jprostko):

 I can confirm that Centinel's solution works.  Currently on the test
 deployment (at least for my account), I need a OTP to get on the server
 and then an OTP to use sudo.  Keep in mind that if you log in and then
 immediately go to use sudo, you have to wait for the next OTP in the
 rotation.  This makes sense though, since they are one-time passwords and
 all.

 Do we need `su -l` to require a OTP as well?  I would think we'd hit the
 same problem that Centinel hit when he made the change to having sudo use
 the user's password and not the root password for the server.  I kind of
 think having OTP for sudo is sufficient.

 In any case, Oliver, how would you like to proceed?  Should only sudo
 utilize OTP, or would you like the server login to require it as well.
 Maybe it depends on the server?
