If stdin is not a tty (which is indeed the case running from an NSTask) and the environment variables DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS are set, ssh will execute the program specified in SSH_ASKPASS and take its output as the password. For an example of how this can be integrated into a Cocoa program, see SSHKeychain. SSHKeychain is in fact a rather good Cocoa ssh-agent manager, but if you're targeting Leopard, there's one already built in. This is definitely the best way to authenticate yourself in ssh, and you should use it if possible (for example, if users of your app will be connecting to a server you control, you could send them auth keys as part of a registration process).
