KSSHASKPASS(1)		       KDE User's Manual		KSSHASKPASS(1)

NAME
       ksshaskpass - prompts a user for	a passphrase using KDE

SYNOPSIS

       ksshaskpass

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.
