Hi everybody, I have asked a question a long time ago regarding SSH_ASKPASS, but with the latest version of OpenSSH I am not able to get the desired result. My goal is to launch a script on a remote server via SSH without having to type a password, because it is locally executed from a script. This should not be too complicated, but somehow I am not able to figure this out myself. I have

Damien, Here's a forwarded bug for you. Cheers, Phil. --[[message/rfc822]] Subject: Bug#52414: ssh-add uses ssh-askpass, but ssh doesn't Reply-To: David Huggins-Daines <dhd at plcom.on.ca>, 52414 at bugs.debian.org Resent-From: David Huggins-Daines <dhd at plcom.on.ca> Resent-To: debian-bugs-dist at lists.debian.org Resent-CC: Philip Hands <phil at hands.com>

Hi all, I have a script which calls ssh-add at a certain point, and I'm getting the following error: ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory I don't see why it's doing this, since SSH_ASKPASS isn't set, and there should be a working terminal: SSH_ASKPASS If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the

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 need ssh-add to fail cleanly if it tries and fails to read a key, rather than prompting the user. I can't seem to figure out how to do that. This is on a Linux 2.6.26 system, running OpenSSH 5.1p1 (as built on debian lenny/sid) First, the things i've tried: * i've unset the DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS environment variables, so no X11-style prompting should happen. * i've

There is an amusing bug in ssh-add that causes it to go into an infinite loop. I am using openssh 1.2.3, and noticed that when I ran "ssh-add < /dev/null" in my X startup scripts, but didn't have ssh-askpass installed, ssh-add started spewing errors into my .xsession-errors and didn't stop. I found that what happens is: ssh-add forks and attempts to exec ssh-askpass. The

Hi, When we added U2F support, we also extended the interface used by ssh and ssh-agent to invoke the $SSH_ASKPASS program. Originally, the askpass prompt was used to obtain passphrases for ssh in cases where it was not possible to read them from the terminal. Later it was (ab)used for showing confirmation prompts for each use of any key that was added to the agent using "ssh-add -c".

I've been giving SSH_ASKPASS a hard look, and it's not clear to me how it's supposed to work. The documentation (ssh.1) seems explicit enough: SSH_ASKPASS If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh does not have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS are set, it will execute

Hello, With the introduction of SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE in version 8.4, I've set up a script for SSH_ASKPASS to query my local passwordstore (https://www.passwordstore.org/) vault to retrieve the password for a given key. This works for ssh-add as well as ssh (configured with AddKeysToAgent set to 'yes'). My workflow effectively transforms into entering the password for the GPG key used

Moin, attached is a patch, which adds a new configuration option "PreferAskpass" to the ssh config. ssh{,-add,-keygen,-agent} will use ssh-askpass to prompt for passwords, if this option is set to "yes", and if ssh-askpass is available. Default for "PreferAskpass" is "no". Pacth is against current CVS. Sebastian -- signature intentionally left blank.

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
