.B gnome-ssh-askpass
|
|
is a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH. It is
|
|
intended to be called by the
|
|
.B ssh-add(1)

|
program and not invoked directly. It allows
|
|
.B ssh-add(1)
|
|
to obtain a passphrase from a user, even if not connected to a terminal
|
|
(assuming that an X display is available). This happens auto-matically
|
|
in the case where
|
|
.B ssh-add
|
|
is invoked from one's
|
|
.B ~/.xsession or as one of the GNOME startup programs, for example.
|
|
|
|
In order to be called automatically by
|
|
.B ssh-add,

|
|
should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass
