Authentication SMS Module
#########################

The `SMS <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_Message_Service>`_ authentication
module allows users to authenticate via SMS.  It adds a new authentication
method `sms`, which can be used in the list of `authentications` in the
`session` section of the configuration file.

The `sms` method just sends a code via SMS to the user. Then the user needs to
transcribe the code into the login dialog.

This method requires that the user has the correct *Mobile* phone number
defined otherwise it will not be possible for them to authenticate.
