NAME
gnome-ssh-askpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using GNOME
SYNOPSIS
gnome-ssh-askpass
DESCRIPTION
gnome-ssh-askpass
is a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH.
It is intended to be called by the
ssh-add(1)
program and not invoked directly.
It allows
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 automatically in the case where
ssh-add
is invoked from one's
~/.xsession
or as one of the GNOME startup programs, for example.
In order to be called automatically by
ssh-add,
gnome-ssh-askpass
should be installed as
/usr/bin/ssh-askpass.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables are recognized:
GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_SERVER
Causes
gnome-ssh-askpass
to grab the X server before asking for a passphrase.
GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_POINTER
Causes
gnome-ssh-askpass
to grab the mouse pointer using
gdk_pointer_grab()
before asking for a passphrase.
Regardless of whether either of these environment variables is set,
gnome-ssh-askpass
will grab the keyboard using
gdk_keyboard_grab().
