Yeah - you can expect to see 401's if you're running pgAdmin in desktop
mode, and try to connect without using the security key. Running under the
runtime as Khushboo suggests should prevent that happening.

In server mode, you should always be redirected to the login page if you
need to authenticate (and the security key isn't used).
