Hi,

That confirms my suspicion: the tectia client is not sending the passphrase 
prompt to /dev/tty but to stderr and the module does not see it.

Working around that from inside the module is not going to be easy and I don't 
have the time to solve it right now or for the next days.

So, we are back at logging from the outside and using the "transport" feature to 
pass back the initialized connection to the module... but before exploring that 
way I see you are in a Solaris box and the native SSH client works flawless with 
Net::SFTP::Foreign, do you have any reason to not use that client instead?
