No class docstring
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method serviceStarted called when the service is active on the transport.
Method serviceStopped called when the service is stopped, either by the connection ending or by another service being started
Method getPassword Return a Deferred that will be called back with a password. prompt is a string to display for the password, or None for a generic 'user@hostname's password: '.
Method getPublicKey Get a public key from the key agent if possible, otherwise look in the next configured identity file for one.
Method signData Extend the base signing behavior by using an SSH agent to sign the data, if one is available.
Method getPrivateKey Try to load the private key from the last used file identified by getPublicKey, potentially asking for the passphrase if the key is encrypted.
Method getGenericAnswers Returns a Deferred with the responses to the promopts.
Method _setAgent Undocumented
Method _ebSetAgent Undocumented
Method _getPassword Undocumented

Inherited from SSHService (via SSHUserAuthClient):

Method logPrefix Override this method to insert custom logging behavior. Its return value will be inserted in front of every line. It may be called more times than the number of output lines.
Method packetReceived called when we receive a packet on the transport
