hey Scott,

we need more information. ordinarily you would provide the secret key 
passphrase in the duply profile conf file. that should suffice.
can you please
1. provide your conf file
2. run duply with `VERBOSITY=9` temporarily set in conf and provide the first 
100 lines of output
obfuscate private information in them beforehand
?

thanks.. ede/duply.net
