In one window this worked but in another:
$ SSH_ASKPASS=
$ ssh inside
ssh_askpass: exec(): No such file or directory
Permission denied, please try again.
ssh_askpass: exec(): No such file or directory
Permission denied, please try again.
ssh_askpass: exec(): No such file or directory
rgm@nevia: Permission denied
(publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password).
[rgm@lx140e ~]$ echo $SSH_ASKPASS
I have my rsync going in the window that a simple ssh inside is
working, but what is going on here????
Supposition:
I had terminal window open where I normally do my rsync by up-arrow to
the command and repeat.
I did an update and rebooted and logged back in. Said terminal window
auto reopened. This is the window with the permissions error.
I open a fresh window and things are working there.
ERGO: old terminal windows that auto reopen on reboot do not get new
stuff. For good and bad....
