-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I note that ssh-askpass-gnome was moved into the contrib/ directory of portable OpenSSH and the configure option for it (--with-gnome-askpass) was removed. I can understand not wanting a configure option for one particular askpass program, but it would be useful to have a general replacement, as in % ./configure

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

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".

OpenSSH Version 2.9p1 of "ssh-add $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa < /dev/null" fails on the first try of using ssh-askpass before the window manager starts. The second try works. The error message on the first try is "Bad passphrase, try again". This did not occur using OpenSSH-2.5.2p2.tar.gz. I've tested this on both RHL6.2 and RHL7.1, both with all RH rpm updates applied. I

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

Hello. I'm new to the list, and I have some questions. I'd like to use ssh as a subprocess, and I'm looking for a generic way of passing passphrase. So far as I know, in SSH Communications' implementation of SSH, ssh invokes ssh-askpass as well as ssh-add does. Lacking of this is just because of security reason? Are there any plans to use some kind of readymade option parsing

Hello, On my home PC, whch runs openssh with Jim Knoble's x11-ssh-askpass, I have configured my Bash shell login script to prompt me for the passphrase. No problem, however it waits during the login process for me to 'do something' - i.e. enter a passphrase, cancel it or whatever. Is it possible to set a timeout so that if, say, nothing occurs within a minute then it assumes no
