+	 * This callback interface is used during a "keyboard-interactive"

+	 * most often just one challenge at a time), this callback function will be
+	 * called to give your application a chance to talk to the user and to
+	 * determine the response(s).
+	 * <p>
+	 * Some copy-paste information from the standard: a command line interface
+	 * (CLI) client SHOULD print the name and instruction (if non-empty), adding
+	 * newlines. Then for each prompt in turn, the client SHOULD display the
+	 * prompt and read the user input. The name and instruction fields MAY be
+	 * empty strings, the client MUST be prepared to handle this correctly. The
+	 * prompt field(s) MUST NOT be empty strings.
+	 * <p>
+	 * Please refer to draft-ietf-secsh-auth-kbdinteract-XX.txt for the details.
+	 * <p>
+	 * Note: clients SHOULD use control character filtering as discussed in
+	 * RFC4251 to avoid attacks by including
+	 * terminal control characters in the fields to be displayed.
+	 * 
+	 * @param name
+	 *            the name String sent by the server.
+	 * @param instruction
+	 *            the instruction String sent by the server.
+	 * @param numPrompts
+	 *            number of prompts - may be zero (in this case, you should just
+	 *            return a String array of length zero).
+	 * @param prompt
+	 *            an array (length <code>numPrompts</code>) of Strings
+	 * @param echo
+	 *            an array (length <code>numPrompts</code>) of booleans. For
+	 *            each prompt, the corresponding echo field indicates whether or
+	 *            not the user input should be echoed as characters are typed.
+	 * @return an array of reponses - the array size must match the parameter
+	 *         <code>numPrompts</code>.
