search for: ask_passphrase

...has already request a passphrase to the user. This application needs to launch ssh agent and ssh add, but I do not want to be prompt again for the passphrase. My private key is of course encrypted with the passphrase. How can I do ? My only idea for the moment is to change the variable value of ask_passphrase and to redirect it to a program that I will write. This program will request to my running application the passphrase. Does anybody see a more simple way ? Thank you by advance Patrice

...has already request a passphrase to the user. This application needs to launch ssh agent and ssh add, but I do not want to be prompt again for the passphrase. My private key is of course encrypted with the passphrase. Our idea My only idea is to force, by a re-direction the passphrase as input of ask_passphrase. The tests done: We have made some test on windows. It seems the askpass program is only executed when the ssh has no terminal. But, on windows, it seems that ssh is always started in a console window and ssh-add not calls askpass program always. Conclusion Can somebody help us ? Thank you by ad...
