MFA using RSA

Hi,

I am trying to set up RSA authentication on our search head cluster, 

I was doing this via the Web Gui but i seem to have locked myself out, 

Any idea where the configuration file is on the backend so that i can remove the settings so that i am able to log back in? 

It is not under system/local where i thought it would be - i think it is in a authentication.conf file somewhere, 

Any help would greatly be appreciated,

Abid

nevermind i found it 

it is under /opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/local/authentication.conf 

 

you can use the command grep -tl "externalTwoFactor" /opt/splunk/etc

This will help locate the location of this particular file
