KSSHASKPASS(1) General Commands Manual KSSHASKPASS(1)NAME
ksshaskpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using KDE
SYNOPSIS
kdesshaskpass
DESCRIPTION
kshaskpass is a KDE-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 KDE startup programs,
for example.
In order to be called automatically by ssh-add, ksshaskpass should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass.

KWALLETASKPASS(1) BSD General Commands Manual KWALLETASKPASS(1)NAME
kwalletaskpass -- kwallet-based pass-phrase dialog for use with OpenSSH
SYNOPSIS
kwalletaskpass [options] label
DESCRIPTION
kwalletaskpass is a kwallet- and pinentry-based pass-phrase dialog for use with OpenSSH. It is intended to be called from the ssh-add(1)
programme and not invoked directly.
If a passphrase is requested, kwalletaskpass works by first looking up the passphrase in the KWallet by means of kwalletcli(1); using it if
found, then calling kwalletcli_getpin(1) to interactively retrieve an answer from the user via pinentry otherwise. If the user specifies a
passphrase, kwalletcli_getpin(1) is run again to ask if the passphrase should be stored in the KWallet. Negative answers will be stored in
the KWallet to avoid being asked each time. kwalletaskpass uses the KWallet folders kwalletaskpass and kwalletaskpass-blacklist with match-
ing entry names.
If anything other than a key passphrase is requested, it is merely relayed to kwalletcli_getpin(1). Some requests are known to require a
boolean answer and are relayed using the boolean query flag; all others are relayed using a PIN query. ssh(1) accepts either the literal
word ``yes'' (case-insensitively matched) or an empty answer (both only when using the OK button) as confirmation.
There are currently no options.
RETURN VALUES
kwalletaskpass exits 0 on success, 1 if the user cancelled the dialogue, or >1 if an error occured.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY The X11 display to use for child processes. If this is unset or empty, kwalletcli will not be called.
PINENTRY The pinentry programme to use. The default is inherited from kwalletcli_getpin(1).

kwalletaskpass was written by Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.org> mostly for tarent GmbH. The idea came from an askpass.C file found somewhere
on the 'net, with no author information. Since it was licenced less freely, this is a rewrite from scratch; modular and with more function-
ality, too.
