I saw an e-mail recently talking about how to do this with Google
Authenticator, though it’s targeting Ubuntu specifically:

The part that does the magic is available in the Open Build Service, and
can probably be built for any system elsewhere:

https://github.com/google/google-authenticator-libpam


Good luck.
