IIRC, you may also need environment variables to tell SSH about it.
Added SSH_ASKPASS to my environment variables and ran winswitch_applet
from the CLI. Still nothing. That said, if I'm entering my password
into the connection configuration, shouldn't a ssh_askpass binary be
unnecessary?
I tried removing my password from
the connection configuration screen thinking that might prompt the
askpass, and noticed something interesting. When I have an empty or
incorrect password entered in the configuration, I get errors like
this on the remote side (in auth.log):
Aug 20 09:00:11 xxxxxx sshd[23427]: Bad protocol version identification
'set_salt 'cfcb532196ab4b7c8f51c3c9dd907adf'' from 192.168.1.9 port
60288
Aug 20 09:00:12 xxxxxx sshd[23430]: Bad protocol version identification
'set_salt '4994cf6a6b4b44ba82e33ec39110c99e'' from 192.168.1.9 port 60289
In fact, now even if I set the password back to the correct one, I
still see errors like that in the remote auth.log. I don't know if
that represents progress or a step backwards?
Not sure, it looks like winswitch is not using ssh at all and is sending
the regular winswitch packet data to ssh, as it would do when configured
to use plain tcp.
You are correct. Somehow when I blanked out the password, the "use
ssh tunnels" box got unchecked, so that was user / UI error, and can
be ignored.
If there's a specific version of twisted (core or conch) that I should
be using, let me know. I have at least a few options to choose from
on gentoo.
Before you downgrade anything, it probably makes sense to ascertain if
twisted is part of the problem or not.
Try running the client in debug mode:
http://winswitch.org/dev/debugging.html
And look for ssh in the output.
I've put up the entire output up at http://pastebin.com/s6i8QDkR
I notice several errors, some of which seem more important than
others. The part at the end is when I actually try connecting, and it
kind of looks like ConchUserAuth is never trying keyboard-interactive
as a method, relying instead on publickey. As it indicates in the
output, twisted (both core and conch) are version 13 (13.0.0 to be
precise).
