Found this above the ReadKey area of the strace:
24737 read(5, "", 4096) = 0
24737 close(5) = 0
24737 write(2, "dev: RSA authentication failed: "..., 55) = 55
24737 write(2, "dev: Doing challenge response au"..., 46) = 46
24737 write(4, "\0\0\0\0052\223\224p\252*\2)", 12) = 12
24737 select(8, [4], NULL, NULL, NULL) = 1 (in [4])
For example:
I have user1.
user1 can at the bash shell go, ssh remoteuser at remotehost
logs in, no questions asked
user1 executes script which runs doesn't run as any other user, gets
prompted for password.
