Hi thanks for taking the time to test this.

I am starting it as part of a script to tunnel a nx session through a
firewall -L XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX.

The commands are actually irrelevant for the bug as all I need to do to reproduce this is type alt+F2 then:
ssh  username at XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

The gui does not accept my password (I have tried many times with the correct one).
If I replace ssh-askpass-gnome with ssh-askpass it works fine.
If I run the command from the terminal it works fine.

"Also, are you using the real ssh-agent, or some inferior substitute (e.g. gnome-keyring-daemon)?"
I have openssh clientside and the serverside is a firewall if this is what you mean....
