Hi Ulf, hi list, Sorry about the "reply-to-all" that I forgot. Now it goes to all. So, I found this answer here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/122511/configuring-the-default- timeout-for-the-ssh-agent (in the end of the text of the accepted answer) and it says to do exactly as your second suggestion. SOLUTION: These options works: SSHAGENTARGS="-t 1h" SSHAGENTARGS="-t 3600" BUG: These causes a strange boot as KDE not initializing: SSHAGENTARGS="-s -t 3600" SSHAGENTARGS=-st3600 Thanks all, specially Ulf.
