Can you click the menu? Does F9 work? Select/Click Left or Right
and select "SFTP link...".

Maybe mc/libssh2 does not support KbdInteractiveAuthentication?

Debug log shows:

Postponed keyboard-interactive for xxx from aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa port 35780 ssh2 [preauth]
PAM: Authentication error for xxx from aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa
Failed keyboard-interactive/pam for xxx from aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa port 35780 ssh2

I haven't checked security/openssh-portable but openssh-9.1p1 works oob.
