Description

JSch by default works with ssh interactive authentication programmatically ( no user interaction). wagon-ssh does not honor this automation

the work around is to use public key, and password authentication. For my case, our automation requires user/password. However, by default, most linux boxes now have password authentication disable by default

a good reference to his issue is http://www.ganymed.ethz.ch/ssh2/FAQ.html#passwordauth . this also applies to jcsh

I found a fix for this at AbstractJschWagon

session.setPassword(ui.getPassword());
//session.setUserInfo( ui );

will need a more generic solution
