Re: SSH access...

You have selected to encrypt your identity file with a pass phrase..

Use ssh-keygen (or whavever the key management tool of your SSH version is) to
remove the passphrase from your identity file and you will get rid of the
question.

the identity file is your SSH "password". To protect the identity file from
theft if other users can read your private files the identity file can
optionally be encrypted with a passphrase. If encrypted then any use of the
identity file requires the passprhase to be entered so the identity file can
be decrypted.
