hi,

i have keychain almost working... the only problem left is with Mandrake or probably 
with X-consoles, so what is the problem...
I set in .bash_profile

/usr/bin/keychain ~/.ssh/id_dsa
source ~/.keychain/${HOSTNAME}-sh

and everything goes normally, when I log in the system i'm asked for passphrase... 
then I enter X and start x-console (gnome-teminal in my case)...
Now if I try to log to remote machine i've been asked for passphrase again..!!! (this 
does not happen when i'm under Gentoo only with Mandrake 9.0)..
Now the interesting part :

if I put :
/usr/bin/keychain ~/.ssh/id_dsa
source ~/.keychain/${HOSTNAME}-sh

in .bashrc and during MidnightCommander-session make a Ctrl+O (temporary shell) and 
then try to ssh to remote machine i'm not asked for passphrase (probably 'cause when I 
do ctrl+o mc executes .bashrc)...
the conlusion then is that when I run terminal no 
..............hmmmmmmmmmmm..........oppsssss... i've got it  ..:")))

when the stuff are in both .bashrc and .bash_profile I'm not asked for passphrase 
anymore, 'cause .bashrc is executed even when u start terminal under X...

SO dont forget to fill in .bashrc
