set environment variable SSH_ASKPASS or askpass in sudoers, resp

Question

I\'m trying to login to a ssh server and to execute something like:

ssh user@domain.com \'sudo echo \"foobar\"\'
         


        

Answer 1

Defaults askpass=/usr/bin/ssh-askpass

ssh-askpass requires X server, so instead of providing a terminal (via -t, as suggested by nosid), you may forward X connection via -X:

ssh -X user@domain.com 'sudo echo "foobar"'

However, according to current documentation, askpass is set in sudo.conf as Path, not in sudoers.
