I am trying to ssh into a site using PKI. I have a private key in my .ssh directory that requires a passphrase.
ssh is asking me for my passphrase using a terrible program called "pinentry". It's terrible for a bunch of reasons, and if you are interested you can just google "pinentry sucks". pinentry is on my system because it is a dependency of gpg. gpg is on my system because I use thunderbird with +crypt (which is the default). Question: By what mechanism does ssh know to use the program "pinentry" to acquire my passphrase? Thank you, Chris
