Just want to say that ssh-askpass doesn't live in /usr/X11R6/bin on most today's systems. There is /usr/X11R6/bin/ssh-askpass on OpenBSD 7.5 but on other systems it's in a different location: On FreeBSD it's in /usr/local/bin/ssh-askpass -> /usr/local/bin/x11-ssh-askpass On Debian it's in /usr/bin/ssh-askpass or /bin/ssh-askpass -> /etc/alternatives/ssh-askpass -> /usr/libexec/ssh-askpass/x11-ssh-askpass. On Fedora it's in /usr/libexec/openssh/x11-ssh-askpass. On Arch it's in /usr/lib/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass. On Slackware it's in /usr/libexec/x11-ssh-askpass. I know that /usr/X11R6/bin/ssh-askpass is just an example and not something that should work with each sudo installation but I think package maintainers could patch the manpage and specify a correct path to ssh-askpass on the local system. -- Arkadiusz Drabczyk <[email protected]> ____________________________________________________________ sudo-users mailing list <[email protected]> For list information, options, or to unsubscribe, visit: https://www.sudo.ws/mailman/listinfo/sudo-users
