Eclipse + Egit + Github == Failed authentication

[Dave Quigley]

I'm trying to get Eclipse working with Github on F17 and I've been 
following a tutorial and I keep getting this error.

ssh://git@github.com:22: 
org.eclipse.jgit.transport.CredentialItem$StringType:Passphrase for 
/home/dpquigl/.ssh/github


I tried adding the passphrase for the github key with ssh-add but it 
doesn't seem to be working. Does anyone have any idea how I can get the 
passphrase into egit so that I can put to the remote github repo?
