SUMMARY
ksshaskpass fails to ask for password or is not passing on the password. This
happens from the konsole and also with apps (e.g. grsync).
Annoying when you want to do backups to NAS (smb shares) and do not want to
type in the pw all the time.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
A) grsync
1. Put in <source> and destination <[email protected]::BackUp/>
2. execute it as ssh (-e ssh)
3. Error: Permission denied. No asking for putting in pw or even when pw are
already stored in kwallet no auto login to BackUp possible.
B) konsole
1. rsync -r -s -e ssh <source local> <destination NAS at
[email protected]::BackUp/>
a. no asking for putting in pw or even when pw are already stored in kwallet
no auto login to BackUp
b. you have to manually type in the pw
2. SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE=force rsync -r -s -e ssh <source local> <destination
NAS at [email protected]::BackUp/>
a. works! Auto login to NAS works and rsync starts, all ok. In my opinion the
"force" command should not be necessary.
OBSERVED RESULT
ksshaskpass fails and no connection to stored pw in kwallet.
EXPECTED RESULT
A) grsync
If pw not yet stored in kwallet: Pop-up should appear where you can put in the
"yes" (finger) and the pw for the smb-share.
If pw already stored in kwallet: grsync should automatically start syncing.
B) konsole
The simple rsync -e ssh command without the "force" should automatically start
the sync.
