1. Navigate to a folder where you want to keep the ssh-askpass repository. For example, your home directory:

   Code Block
   $ cd ~

   
   

2. Using git pull down the repository locally

   Code Block
   $ git clone https://github.com/theseal/ssh-askpass.git ssh-askpass

   
   

   Note

   This will probably pop up requesting to install command line developer tools. Go ahead and install it.

   
   

3. Set up environment to work with ask-pass:

   Expand
   title Mojave users here
   Current version doesn't appear to work. You will need to revert to an older version of the applescript. Code Block cd ssh-askpass git checkout -b v1.2.2 v1.2.2 <RUN THROUGH THE ORIGINAL STEPS BELOW> Reverting the git back to master: git checkout master git branch -d v1.2.2

   
   

   Code Block
   $ cd ssh-askpass $ sudo cp ssh-askpass /usr/local/bin/ $ cp ssh-askpass.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ $ launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ssh-askpass.plist

   Note
   It seems that ssh-add requires that the DISPLAY environment variable be set in order to execute ssh-askpass.  There are a couple of ways to accomplish this, the easiest is to just install xquartz.  If you want you can also add it to your profile.

   
   

Usage

OpenSC + ssh-askpass
