Is using ssh keys out of the question? Create a ssh key on the machine you deploy from, and put the public key on both the gateway and deployment machines. Then if you forward your agent (I have "ForwardAgent yes" in my ~/.ssh/config file), then the secret key on your machine will be used on the gateway and deployment machines.
