Question Logon with Sentry, requests Auth Code

[Rellfy]

Hello!

I'm getting the Sentry file from the 'steam' module. When I try to logon using this module, I set the sentry file and it still requests me to input the Steam Guard code. Here's how I'm getting the sentry from Steam.SteamUser:

function MakeSha(bytes) {
var hash = crypto.createHash('sha1');
hash.update(bytes);
return hash.digest();
}

this.steamClientUser.on('updateMachineAuth', (sentry, cb) => {
    fs.writeFileSync(/* path */, sentry.bytes);

// Method which uses steam-user module
    this.loginWithSentry();

    cb({
        sha_file: MakeSha(sentry.bytes)
    });

this.steamClient.disconnect();
});

And here, how I set the sentry, reading from the file that was written in the above code.

let sentryFile = fs.readFileSync((/* path */));

this.steamUser.setSentry(sentryFile);

this.steamUser.logOn({
accountName: this.username,
password: this.password
});

After this, the console asks for the steam guard code, apparently ignoring the sentry.

PS: The sentry file is actually 2KB.

There's no reason why that shouldn't work, besides the sentry not being valid for your account.

Indeed.

 

As I said in the github issue, I believe it's a problem with the other module. When I get the sentry from steam-user, it works without any problems, as it should.
