Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. PROBLEM SOLVED, and the .bashrc I quoted works fine. What I had to do was create the SHELL_LOGIN variable, and use it to protect the code that interfered with scp. I normally don't use that kind of automation either, but for security reasons I use a passphrase on my ssh identity, and it's long. Typing it a lot got real old, so I started using ssh_agent, but I use it in a lot of windows, so I'm just trying to balance convenience and security. Some days I do 20 or more scp operations. That's the usual balancing act -- if it's too inconvenient, I'll ditch the security and hope for the best. So this is what I came up with. What I'd really like is a way to get this set up when I log into KDE, so that all the windows I open under that login have an agent. I'm not worried about physical security on this system, but the possibility of a hacker break-in giving automatic access to other hosts. Thus the long passphrase on my private keyrings. I was also reluctant to use ssh-agent, but on reflection I don't see a real vulnerability. I use it on my home system, which is not exposed to others in the usual course of things. If somebody steals the computer, the loss of power un-caches the credentials, so I'm only vulnerable to someone physically sneaking in to *use* my computer and finding me logged in. Very unlikely, because when I leave the house I'm either logged off or my session is locked. I'm simply not a big enough fish for it to be reasonable anyone would do this. Of course, security issues are always a balancing act and you may figure the balance however you like. ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
