It'd be great if all admins could try to set up OTP access for them and

The main problem was to convert hex to base32 for FreeOTP (without using
a online converter). In case anyone finds himself in the same situation,
there's a StackOverflow answer [1] that provides a perl script for
base32 encoding. On a non-Debianish Linux MIME::Base32 can be installed
via cpan. I ended up using:
echo <hex> | xxd -r -p | perl -I ~/perl5/lib/perl5 ./base32enc.pl
Maybe there's a simpler way.
