At this point, it's not asking for your user password, but rather the
passphrase for your private key on machineB. This is normal.
If you don't want to be prompted for anything at all, then you need to start
an "ssh-agent" on machineB and load your private key in there with "ssh-add"
ahead of time. (Read the ssh-agent manpage, as there are some implications
on your shell environment.) Then, essentially, as long as the ssh-agent
process doesn't die or have its keys cleared, you will be able to login w/o
a password on machineC.
good luck,
Jonathan
