[Bug 578035] Re: ssh-askpass-gnome doesn't prompt for password in any release post ubuntu 8.10 32/64bit
We just spend some time on #ubuntu-bugs triaging this one and this is what we found out. For some time the agent responsible for caching ssh passwords is Gnome Keyring and dialog is displayed by gnome-keyring-prompt. Gnome Keyring, as stated on its website supports both SSH v1 and SSH v2 protocols but former only in compatibility mode. In this mode Gnome Keyring still caches keys but they have to be added using ssh-add. At least in David's case we have managed to track the issue down to his old DSA key, he has reported that a newly generated RSA key works as expected - i.e. password prompt shows up. I've also confirmed that it shows up for newly generated DSA keys. To all who are affected by this bug can you confirm that generating a new key solves the issue? I'm also reassigning package to gnome-keyring as ssh-askpass-gnome isn't used anymore. ** Package changed: openssh (Ubuntu) = gnome-keyring (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: gnome-keyring (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- ssh-askpass-gnome doesn't prompt for password in any release post ubuntu 8.10 32/64bit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I'd just like to add a me too comment. I have re-installed my Ubuntu, copied my id_dsa into ~/.ssh. Its annoying that I no longer get the gui prompt to enter my password which is then cached. I have to unlock my key, every single time I go to log into a host with ssh. This is definitely a bug, as the expected behaviour is that it just works, like it did on the prior installation. -- ssh-askpass-gnome doesn't prompt for password in any release post ubuntu 8.10 32/64bit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I'm not looking for a work around, this is a bug in the expected behaviour and has been in place since Ubuntu 8.10 and I'd like to progress it. -- ssh-askpass-gnome doesn't prompt for password in any release post ubuntu 8.10 32/64bit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Thanks to a suggestion on #ubuntu-uk.

I should point out, that if you find the other bugs (there where 2) that I logged on this other users also confirmed this. -- ssh-askpass-gnome doesn't prompt for password in any release post ubuntu 8.10 32/64bit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
