I'm running FreeBSD 4.8. I recently did some assorted work on my system, upgrading a disk drive and rebuilding (not updating) my kernel. Now, I can't seem to ssh from my normal user account. When I try, I get the error: monopoly~ $ ssh somedomain.com ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/X11R6/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory Host key verification failed. monopoly~ $ I'm not trying to use any kind of graphical connection method, I just want the usual login. I've tried unsetting $DISPLAY, and re-installing OpenSSH from Ports, both with no effect. In the process of playing around I accidentally deleted my .ssh/known_hosts file, but this also has had no effect. I never had an ssh_config file in the first place. Oddly, I _can_ ssh normally when sudo'd to root, but I can't see any obvious reason--I don't have an ssh_config file as root, etc. Thanks for any suggestions. Jesse Sheidlower
