similar to: ssh-askpass and ssh/scp: is this behavior intentional?

Enclosed is a patch against 2.2.0p1 that teaches ssh (and therefore slogin and scp) how to invoke ssh-askpass to request a password, RSA/DSA key passphrase, or an skey challenge response. I've tested this on Linux (i386), for passwords and RSA/DSA key passphrases. I cannot easily test whether the Right Thing will happen for skey challenge responses; I would appreciate it if someone who uses

I've just finished compiling OpenSSH version 2.1.1p4 for Red Hat Linux 6.2 (i386) with recent patches, using OpenSSL version 0.9.5a, which was compiled to use RSAREF. There are a couple of issues I noticed immediately: 1. The ssh-agent program can only store RSA keys, not DSA keys. 2. Only ssh-add knows to invoke ssh-askpass (if it is not attached to a tty and DISPLAY is set).

hi, let me start by saying ive tried everything i can think of with the --with-default-path configure flag. USER_PATH in config.h is correctly getting the value of this flag. i am installing to the default locations (user binaries to /usr/local/bin). ssh works fine, (after i did the LIBS=-lcrypt thing) but now, no matter what i do, i get "sh: scp: command not found" whenever i try to

I've been working on a NetBSD package for openssl-1.2pre12, and I've noticed that Makefile.in installs ssh-askpass in $prefix/lib/ssh ($libdir) instead of $libexecdir/ssh. Since it is an executable, IMHO it should be in the latter spot. In the patch below, I've fixed this, as well as made ASKPASS_PROGRAM used during the install so that it's easier to maintain. Thanks, David ---

We're developing a security application (http://iscs.sourceforge.net) that uses SSH for out-of-band management. Sometimes we want to use rsa keys and other times we want to use user ids and passwords. We noticed that there was not an OpenSSH API that we could use to pass the user's password and that we could not give it via stdin. We did notice that we could set SSH_ASKPASS and launch

My website has fallen off the web. This is a good time for someone else to take over the code for x11-ssh-askpass, as I've not done anything with it for years. I have the original code somewhere if needed, but I think Debian has mirrored it for some time. -- jim knoble > On Nov 18, 2019, at 01:49, Jakub Jelen <jjelen at redhat.com> wrote: > >> On Mon, 2019-11-18 at 16:19
